    Nice work i am impressed

    I am thinking of getting a tune for my 135kw diesel at a year old ( 3mths now) every time someone posts a review like this i get more set on it even tho will torpedo rest of drivetrain warranty lol
    How is the extra power do you notice the torque peak earlier or the extra kw further up ?

      If you have warranty issues, the tuning box takes about 5 minutes to remove and leaves no trace on the ecu, unlike a flash tune. With the 3 different maps you can move the power/torque up or down the rev range to suit yourself. The big difference is in the 2k-3k rpm range the torque is huge. I believe, (sure someone will correct me if wrong), the dsg has a 400nm torque limiter in the lower gears. Just do it Kachingg.

        Thanks i will definitely be getting a tune for sure sooner rather than later lol (upgrade to golf r brakes to come in 3 weeks so finances will have to recover before a tune)
        I have the 7 speed hi torque dsg with a 420nm torque limit tune will be in the realms of 450nm to 470nm but the vw specialist i am using has said its overenginered and the clutch pack is huge just don't launch it from a standstill thats fine with me after the wall of torque in the 2500-4000rpm band for overtaking ect
        Like a kid with a new toy now i am chomping at the bit
