    Have a read through the Tuning and Performance (inc ECU upgrades) section for plenty of info on GIAC and other tunes.

      This is the next big ticket item for me
      I dont think there are too many around with ECU reflash full stop.

        More power throughout the power band especially mid range, haven't got a dyno read yet. Car hasn't blown up yet so I say so far so good.

          Incorrect!

          Most of the Scirocco owners here have had their ECU flashed, just not with GIAC specifically. Since the OP asked specifically about GIAC..

            So lets speak up... the members that have had ecu reflash.
            Who did it and what was the result.

                A bit of an oddly worded thread?

                I believe Volkstech are a GIAC dealer arent they?

                  Yes they are, just googled their website.

                  @ Volkstech1: What's your opinion? In your sig you have an R with a GIAC tune, are you making a comparison of some sought?

                    Thats correct, i do have my scirocco r tuned giac stage 1. Im very happy with the result theres a noticable difference in the exhaust note which is a bonus very explosive and as expected a bit of traction loss when hitting boost..

                      Now you need a downpipe to unlock some more power

                      We are hopefully fitting up our new prototype Scirocco R fitment DP this week. Looks amazing!

                            I've had APR as my tune of choice with all my past GTI's and now with my scirocco R. Their products including their RSC DP and exhaust are extremely good quality and transform the driving experience! I would go with APR any day over GIAC.

                            Not just saying that cos I've had it in my last 2 cars but also due to the over whelming comparisons made in other forums around how APR out performs GIAC in every way

                              Perhaps you should try something before dismissing it with such authority?
