Matt tells me its fantastic and I'm going to love it. It really goes like a rocket now :-D
Sounds good. Be interested to seethe dyno results (curves) if you have them.

Okay having some trouble with my flickr account. I can't upload the pics because my yahoo user details was cancelled cause I didn't use it :-( I forgot it was linked to flickr.
However you can still see it on facebook:

Paul's latest post is about my car and has 2 pics of dyno results (curves!)
Once I've figured out flickr I'll be uploading the 2 pics on fb and a couple of the car sitting on the dyno.
Initial impression of the tune is that it's pretty good. Got some really nice torque and a boost to power zooming around.
Some decent gains right through the rev range. Good thing is that it looks just as smooth as the stock tune so it should drive nicely just with a bit more urge.
A 25% increase everywhere is decent gains which should be quite noticeable on the road.
Enjoy! :D

I wanted some extra power and fuel economy on my 2012 Diesel Golf mk6 103TDI Comfortline Bluemotion.
First the DSG was tuned by itself. Showed no changes in power or torque on the dyno but I have felt a difference in the car while driving it with the stock ECU.
It feels more urgent during gearing using adaptive shift and automatic.
Feels faster gearing up and accelerating at low speeds, and overtaking at higher speeds. Using automatic drive and sport mode.
My new favourite thing is putting my foot down on the accelerator when coming out of a roundabout and zooming off :-D .
I noticed a small decrease in the litres/100km by about .4 litres/100km but not noticing a difference in the overall range between refills (only 2 full tanks before ECU tune).
After a month with just the DSG tune, the RD Technik ECU tune was then installed. ECU had to be taken out and the tune done on the bench. Tune was written by RD Technik in Italy.
Figures:
Golf quoted: 103kw and 310nm
Average litres per 100km: 5.4 litres (my daily driving)
Golf real world: 77kw and 355nm
Average litres per 100km: 5.0 litres
Golf tuned: 100.1kw and 459nm
Average litres per 100km: 4.0 litres
25-30% increase across the curve.

My golf now feels like a little rocket. Feel and torque especially felt good for low speed boosting from traffic lights and roundabouts. Most noticeably felt in sport mode, but drive also feels livelier now.
Overtaking is even quicker, feels smoother and safer no matter what speed you are going at.
It’s now an energetic puppy that’s always ready to go and run anywhere and full speed if you let it.
Service from all players was good. A few small delays in getting the tools to do the bench ECU tune but unlikely to happen again. Paul Razum went above and beyond in the time and care he spent on the car. AP Tuning have been helpful and I look forward to seeing the results and review later on when the RDT Shift Plus is installed. RD Technik have provided an excellent stage 1 tune and I am impressed with the results.
Had its first full tank of diesel on Monday 8/9/14 and after a bit of driving its range + km done showed a total of 1300km on Wednesday 10/9/14. Very impressive. Most I’ve ever seen has been 1200km during long distance driving.
