    Given the number of ECU tuned cars over the years that had warranty claims passed I still say it's down to the dealer. I never said anything otherwise but then again I get the impression some people, like those who apparently drive the greatest car in the world, never let facts get in the way of their story.

    If you honestly believe it is undetectable than good luck.. when in doubt invoke the George Costanza lie detector theory.
    Many people have tested this. Literally hundreds in the USA. The ECU sees stock parameters. So if you remove it there is no trace.

    The only trace could be if you didn't connect the wires back properly and they guessed you had been up to something.

      • I just finished installing my JB1 and took my GTI ED40 out for a quick drive. All I can say is WOW, it has totally transformed my car. For around $600, it's a no brainer. Can't wait to change the mapping tomorrow!!!

        For those that ordered the cable as well (which is everyone). You have to remove the grey plastic cover from one end of the usb cable before screwing it onto the JB1 otherwise you won't be able to put the black covers back together. The whole install process took me 3 hours because (1) I didn't know about the need to remove the grey plastic cover from the usb cable (2) Took me a while to figure out where the jacking point is on the MK7 Golfs (3) Plug D is a bxtch!!!

          • Nice job posting the pics and video. Did you try routing the cable to the passenger glove box so it's easily accessible? I read that it's possible although don't know what extra mods it might require.


            PS.
            Also, which "grey plastic cover" are you referring to? My cable has already a naked connector (not the usb one, the other) which seems to be going straight in (once I manage to open the JB1 enclosure). There is nothing to be removed from what I see.

            During the purchase there where two options for the cable:

            "With gray shell for most models"
            "VW"

            Are you sure you selected the VW? Although yours were sent directly from the importer so maybe they messed smt up?

            • Can the 6C Polo GTI guys get in on this group buy? I've been looking at getting a JB1 for a few months now.

                        Yeah I think I got the non-VW cable which comes with a grey shell. If it's naked, you should be able to screw it straight on.

                                Have a look here, there's a grommet you can use.
