| Re: Škoda Octavia RS Now with 2.0 TDI PD Engine Hey Guys, I'm new to this forum...but i just took the VRS for a test drive! Very nice and quick car! However the boost in the turbo is quite a kick when it spins up. But for the price ur better of getting a L&K and getting it remapped. Ok u don't get the exterior styling, but you get a heck of alot of toys. Most likely gonna buy mine through www.drviethedeal.co.uk Anyone used them? Anyway hello all  |

| Re: Octavia vRS TDI Testdrive. OK, I've done it!! I've put my order in on the L&K with a few extra's from DTD. Decided to go for the creature comforts than the head jerking boost! In a few years when I get bored and warranty has run out I might remap it to the same as the VRS (should be possible by then if it isn't now). But i couldn't justify the difference in money for what the VRS was giving! |
