Stage 1 suggestions GTI

Go see Dave at pacortech! Had a UGP tune done on my customers 6GTI the other day and he’s over the moon with it.

I've been looking into a stage 1 tune also and my mechanic at VA Garage on the Gold Coast couldn't recommend the bluefin superchips enough.

Said he had it on his mk6 GTI without it causing any issues at all and if you're not doing a tonne of track days it was plenty powerful for the road.

and vorace, gotta ask did you see any noticeable improvements with the GFB DV+ watched a couple youtube vids of dudes disappointed it didnt make any dose noises but with a tune i'd imagine the boost having better re-circulation would make a nice different keeping the boost up high.

Hey StuDUB,

There was a small improvement with the DV+. With the tune it holds boost better and more evenly especially when shifting gears under heavy throttle. Of course there is no real new whooshing blow off noises....which is great for me.

I thought the Bluefin was a conservative tune, but I did see on the Superchips website they had a dyno camparo between Superchips Bluefin and others like APR, and to my surprise they were very similar!

The car is plenty powerful enough for road and track especially as it is FWD. I did a trackday at Phillip Island recently and the traction control lite was flickering down the main straight at the top of 4th gear! The car was getting to nearly 220 kmh down the straight.
