SuperChip ECU Upgrade

The chip/tune is well worth it. Very dramatic change in the cars performance. I have the HALDEX Gen 4 controller as well, barely noticeable unless really giving it some, Not really sure if that was worth the cost. I had CPC in Sydney do my DSG tune, and thats also money well spent. The DSG seems to "learn" your current driving mood vary quickly. Its also avoids going in to 6th at 60kmh which used to annoy me! The sport mode seems to hold the gears a wee bit too long for my liking, its very agro. For some reason I also lost my launch control too... not that I use it, but I'll get CPC to sort that out.

I'm going in next Monday to have my VWR BBK fitted and then, when they arrive, I'll have the new VWR 2 piece rear rotors fitted too.

Back to the tune - get it, it'll be one of the best upgrades you'll ever fit!!

Sounds great =)

I'm thinking of doing the DSG after finishing with the sound system (nearly there) and then maybe a chip/tune - from what I can read, the chip/tune doesn't add much power? Does it improve acceleration (this is what actually matters)? and I guess better fuel economy is a big bonus.

The acceleration is enhanced no doubt, the tune delivers more torque at lower RPM and overall more response throughout the rev range... I've not heard on anyone who has had it done, ask for their money back...

This chip/tune changes the attitude of the car in many ways - it was well worth the cost of entry, and I'd get it done again tomorrow if I had to.

Hmm... not sure what he charges as we speak, but I paid $650.00 - with a 100% return policy if you're unhappy with it.

Pretty good value me thinks...

I think the last time I emailed Peter he said $750. Which sounds fair, I messaged the local Perth "authorised dealer" for Superchips and got a pretty ridiculous price.

*inserted for lolz*

• Extractors (headers): $2,500
• Custom stainless steel valve controlled headers back exhaust system (noise switchable from factory quiet to a nice clean growl, never overly loud) This system is perfect for the daily driver. We use Magnaflow mufflers and cats for super high quality and reliability. We build our systems with high grade 316 stainless steel and offer a lifetime warranty, tips are open to your preference. $3,890
• Custom tune to match: This tune will be custom and suited to your vehicle perfectly. We would expect around 330-350hp and 390-400nm of torque. $1,690.

Hi Basic

Sorry I forgot to reply to your PM.
That was from an email I got from the local "Authorised" Superchips company in Perth. The company is Ramp Auto Group but as you can see the quote from them is about $1000 more for a tune than what I got from Peter from Superchips so im very sceptical and will look elsewhere.
