You will love it. I can't wait for your feed back. Can you give us a before and after impression? I did mine straight from the dealer so never really had a chance to drive it stock. FYI we have been traveling on a ring road lately, A 30km trip mostly 80-100km/h speed with some 50-60 at each end and regularly see the fuel into the high 6l/100. And thats driving normally with moderate traffic. My wife gets this around town sometimes, and with nearly 10000km it seems to be getting better. Front tyres are wearing fast, the right foot needs more control hehe

That's only AUD25 less than what i paid 2 years back - I'm surprised it wasn't much better than that.

Mine was GBP 339 + GBP20. AUD1=GBP 0.54 at the time. What are we now? about 1=0.61?

Enjoy the 2nd & 3rd gear thump in your back. I recomend you do a half-dozen easy (half throttle on the flat) runs from 2000rpm - 5000rpm in 2nd or 3rd to start with & allow the tune to adjust for our fuel. Superchips would prefer it if we had 100ron here.

Might I ask where from? PM if you like. Have two weeks off starting next week and am thinking about getting a bluefin

They are GBP 378 + 20 now, so that explains it, still cheaper than other options though.

I emailed gccorp.com.au (aussie distributer). They said they are going to lower their price to $680. Also said that they've had no issues with the TSI and encryption. But have has issues with the occasional TDI.

Awesome. Thanks for the details above - ordered off gccorp - it says 2 days for delivery - does that mean they have them in stock? I can't wait to try it out.

Now I wish I had a TSI instead of TDI regarding encryption.

I just noticed they mention "stage 2" is just a high flow cat........

Anyone had a high flow cat priced up? if it's <500 i may do that first, before I send my ECU file to superchips for tuning. Curses! the damn power bug has gotten me already, and the cars only got 1600k's on it lmao.

Stage 3 looks like you need injectors & s3 turbo and a few other things......wifey def wont approve that....yet....ha ha

You should replace the downpipe and cat for stage 2.

The K04 from the S3 won't bolt in, it's quite different to the K03s on your Polo. Some tunes for a K04 also need injectors and a 3 inch MAF.

They should do some advertising, I didnt know they existed until after I spent my money. I would have happily spent another $50 odd to support a Oz company.

Sorry, not sure how to have that Footer at the bottom. I have a 2010 Octavia RS TSI, not a polo (although a polo gti would make a great "wifes" car )

Under my profile, signature. Thought we were talking Polo's
