    Guy,

    Kinda off topic, but kinda is still on topic Have you upgraded any of the the new Skoda vRS's with the TSI (not TFSI) ?? I am interested in 'upgrading' the family truckster

    P.S. the 2.0 gets the exact same output as the GTI MKVI

    Stock = 7.2
    Stage 1 = 6.6
    Stage 2 = 6.2 seconds.

    Found it extremely difficult to launch the car (Manual trans) - the balance between wheel slip, bogging down & short shifting was difficult.

    Times were run on Racelogic Performance box, yesterdays heat (Stage 1 & stock) was 32.5 degree's - todays heat (stage 2) was 35.5 degrees.
    Looks like you need some training in journalism if you want to get that thing faster. Not sure of the cost of the journalism course against the cost of stage 1 and stage 2 tune although I think journalism qualifications would definitely void warranty.
    You know you are getting old when you cancel your order for a 3.6 CC and buy an Icelandic Gray TDI CC instead.

    Yeah the stock VW time = 6.9 so assume it was the heat or you weren't holding your tongue right .
