Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

          Hi Saul. I haven’t progressed beyond what I’ve already shared, just hooning around enjoying it as it currently stands. It isn’t boring yet, that’s for sure When I do get inspired I’m still not sure whether to do brakes and tyres before chasing more power though, as both paths have appeal. I’ll be sure to share whatever happens.

              Has anybody had any experience with "Racechip"
              Performance chips – Chip tuning by RaceChip for VW Polo VI (AW) 2.0 GTI (147KW) | RaceChip

              I have always used "Superchip Blufin" for my tunes, (5 cars in all) however they dont make a tune for the AW GTI Polo as yet.

              We seem to have very few tune options for our Polo GTI's

                  I would argue that you would be hard pressed to notice 20hp and 30nm in what is already a reasonably powerful little car. Why don't you contact Pacortech in Ingleburn who are dealers for Underground Performance in Melb (who have tuned several current model Polo GTI's with good results) and see if they can tune it.

                      Hey guys, im about to take delivery of a 2020 GTI.

                      I want to do a few mild mods to her, looking at getting the ECU done so its putting out a bit more power, but also looking at exhaust and intake.

                      Ive been looking at who or where to go for the ECU flash / upgrade any one got any suggestions. Brisbane based. My car was meant to be here 3 weeks ago but got bull****ted too by the now no longer employed member of the dealership I got the vehicle through. I should expect it end of month.

                      Cheers!

                          Thanks mate. Got something sorted just awaiting car to arrive. It’s clearing customs as we speak.

                            Post back once you've got it done. I'd be interested to hear how it went.

                              Will do, by the look of things I will need to look at getting the exhaust sorted as well, the opf may cause some hinderance in sound, unsure about performance.

                              Also does anyone know, if there is a better solution than running a pod filter for CAI?
