| Briskodian | Hi! Hello, just signed up to the forum. Anyway, I'm interested in buying a VAG car with a bit of power (and space) and the Octavia vrs looks a good buy. However, how easy are they to tune? I have heard Jabbasport can take the power up to 220bhp relatively easily for about £500, but how easy is it to get up to 280ish? What would be involved and what are the costs like? Thanks, Tristan |

| A remap would get you 220-235 ish and cost between 400 and 600 depending on where from. Exactly which one to go for is a continuing subect of much debate. For significant gains above this I think you are looking at a bigger turbo as the starting point.
