    Attention Stock Gti Polo Owners!

    So the time has come where I'm looking to go stage 3 in the near future and rather then go ahead and waste my current phase 2 custom code tune and remap over it with the phase 3 tune, I thought I would offer it to someone wanting to have a tuned ecu in their car, the opportunity to swap their stock one with me at a discounted rate. So the buyer would get a phase 2 tune at a discounted rate, and I can remap the standard ECU, a win win situation I believe

    If anyone is interested let me know

    Aren't the ECUs coded to a VIN or the body computer or the keys?

    Yeah, but I can fix that. So it's no big deal.

    Newbie to Polo's and VW's in general, what gains would one get from this? I have a 2006 Polo GTI as well.

    You are looking at around 50-60hp at the crank but you'll be needing a downpipe to use this ECU.

    Yeah, what Gav said
    Either a 2.5 or 3" downpipe is needed. Pricing varies quite a lot depending on where you go, have heard of people getting them done anywhere from $400-700 for the same product so it pays to do your research and compare shops.

    Too late mate, it's gone. I can do you an original Phase 2 tune if you have a downpipe fitted.
