Polo GTI APR ECU Upgrade

[RoknRob]

Looking for a Polo GTI for final fitment, fitment instruction pictures & dyno testing. Anyone have a Polo GTI available in Brisbane? - a killer deal will happen [COLOR="Silver"]

Aww, man! If my car wasn't currently getting the oil consumption test, I'd be there in flash! (Get it? Flash ! Ha! )

Hurry them up Rob - do some miles!

Hurry them up Rob - do some miles!

Actually, the kms were done last week!

So I called my local dealer LAST week and they can only fit me in NEXT week!

Assuming the test is positive, then they will need to order parts, bring the car in for a few days...

I suspect you will have your demonstrator by then... if not, count me in!

The biggest unlock in HP is the intercooler & intake - massive differences.

you weren't wrong Guy.

Just had my IC and radiator fitted and its made a huge improvement. Its even noticeable on the bum dyno with the TCS cutting in alot more than before. Power felt much much more consistent with no drop off as well. Add to that engine bay temps felt notably less which can only be a good thing.

Should be able to run a fair bit more boost and timing now without suffering heatsoak

Have all the resellers around the country been given the latest Polo GTI tune?

I will be booking my car in for Monday at Muller and Muller in Auburn.

I figured that I am off for Holidays and they are the closest and you are having a sale.

Just want to make sure before I book anything that they have the updated tune or will be sent the updated tune.

Thanks.

Also another question regarding the cold air intakes?

Are they available yet and if so, do they come under any of the current sale items?

Wouldn't mind doing a tune and CAI all at once.

Guy

What figures are you seeing over just the stage 2 map and intake once you fit the intercooler. Is there a stage 2+ map to take account of the intercooler upgrade or is it purely an add on modification and gain.


No oe on the uk forums seem to have apr software on their 1.4

Booked in a tune for Monday at European AutoTech.

Looking forward to it!

Getting the car lowered finally on Saturday.

[Guy_H]

Sorry, just got back from China - yes, all dealers have the latest software revision for the Polo's - no problem there

Will be doing the numbers on a customers car very shortly (intake / intercooler).

I'll post up the intake prices tomorrow, we have 10 in stock!

[Hooti3]

Looking forward to the update.

Keen to see the prices.

Got my Stage 1 tune done this morning.

Holy moly the extra torque is insane. Very happy so far.

[Guy_H]

Good Stuff Hooti - We have been on the dyno all morning with the new "base line" car - stage 1 vs stock, all temps logged & recorded at 3 positions - intercooler fitting happening now for round 2 of tests.

[vRSy]

I'm keen to see what yours makes on the dyno with intercooler, intake tbe and the V2.0 software. APR usa still haven't changed their website from the old V1.0 graphs.

I'm literally about to change software to either APR or REVO so I can switch maps, but so far I've only seen the revo graphs

[Guy_H]

will see if they can mod the V 2.0 graphs, we have them.

Problem is, not all cars can take the V 2.0 program (it depends on the ECU part number which defines which fueling system is installed on the car) - if your car has the late fuel system, its all good, if it has the early one, you can't extract as much power.

Sent me an email & I'll see what dyno's I can dig up for you!

[vRSy]

Much appreciated Guy

My car had the later fuel system so is fine for the V2.0 map.

Email sent, much appreciated.

Question though, if for instance you had a car with tbe, intake and loaded the stage 2 map onto it. If you then got a car with the above mods and an intercooler can you tweak it to run more boost or timing etc or is it the same stage 2 map regardless of eztra mods?

[vRSy]

Any luck wth these dyno graphs Guy?
