Im arrange a cracking group buy discount. Lets get a few folk lined up for remaps, say August/September time? The more numbers I can get the better the discount.

Im looking to arrange for the MRC Stage2+ package which gives you around 500bhp and a much more responsive DSG gearbox with faster changes and higher launch control.
I have seen people quoting 0-60 times down to 3.7 seconds!

500bhp and a better DSG gearbox, its really a no brainer

Lets get some numbers and names of interest and intent and I will be able to put up the prices.

Interested?
Warranty is always a consideration for people when they remap but many people remap due to the massive benefits.
You dont need the exhaust or charge cooler to get 500bhp ,the S4 responds great to the remap without them and safely.

Brakes depend on how you plan to use it as I think the standard brakes are pretty good.

Thanks, just waiting to get word on the final prices
Have 8 folk interested now, but would have been nice to get up to 10 people to get more of a discount

Anyone else?

You must be able to get a price from MRC for a group buy of 10 ahead of this? At least people know what cost they are signing up to, also it would be a good marketing event for them with 10 S4's attending?

depending on the price as said above I may be interested in participating but it would need to be a good deal rather than something like 5% off.... even at 50% they still make money on it and get extra free publicity so that's what we should be aiming for.

Prices in.
This isnt just a normal stage2 remap that you get at other tuners, this is the full one with dyno time before and after to show you numbers.
Packages includes - MRC Filter, MRC Pulley, MRC Hi Grip Belt, Silicon Intake Pipe, Modified airbox, fitting, Dyno Time and MRC Stage 2 Remap plus DSG remap

So, normal price for all of this is just under £2100, and the discount price is £1600
or 1350 if you dont need the DSG remap

So basically 10% off from their £1500 package (which doesnt include DSG remap). Hardly the price to get excited about.

What were you hoping for? And please don't say 50% again

Unfortunately not interested in the group buy as I don't have the car, but just out of interest for the future...

Do you need a performance exhaust to go with all that? Or can you get near 500hp with just this package? Cheers

You can get near 500 without the exhaust apparently. For some reason they don't seem to add much power on the b8

Or we will be able to tell you very soon as I don't plan on putting an exhaust on as those days have passed

Hi,
Just wondering if the group buy is still happening, I've got a 2010 S4 and could be interested.

Thanks
