there is some chatter regarding the APR Stage 1 tune not living up to specs, which may or may not be proved in time tests. Like yourself the seat of pants feel and the improvement in mid range acceleration is pronounced. you must have bought the tune before xmas, great price. are you thinking Stage II? Maybe Corey's Fuel, Cat-back and intercooler?

Got the tune on the 5th Feb, picked up the car the 4th Feb!
Sadly i think stage 2 is calling... Maybe CAI first, then pump and maybe down pipe. I'm happy with the rest of the exhaust. Intercooler is a possibility... I've only had the car 12 days!

Was that his Golf R? Or the GTI Race car?

His R Deano.

His R Deano.

Is his manual or DSG?

Fab, it's too wet tonight, don't bother

I can highly recommend the fuel pump + stage II tune. The car now has decent acceleration in 5th gear from 60km/hr which makes the car easier to drive in traffic.

Amen to that.

[Beena]

So are we talking simply HPFP and a tune? No down pipe?

Amen to that.

Makes sense, Guy sold his manual because your 0-100 time apparently will always suck due to having to have to shift to 3rd to get to 100.

I you were asking about what Dean from Volkspower has done to his car to get 4.8's, then ony a Stage I ECU - nothing else is required. I was also able to get 4.82 on a 26.5 degree evening, 1/2 tank fuel, just me in my Stage I R.
Fab_R was able to get 4.68 - he didn't disclose the temp, morning, 1/4 tank fuel.

If you were talking about Icarus's comments - Stage II means at least downpipe & cat replacement.

I was talking about Icarus' yes, I thought it sounded strange there was no down pipe mentioned... So his is really stage II+ then.

Checked out Deans while mine was getting flashed a week or so ago, the 3dr little brother to mine!
