    From personal experience on manual it made a massive difference- worth ten times what you pay. I'm running the superpro one. But for dsg people have had varied opinions. When it has worked it's worked well.

    Only selling cos I got the wrong model for my car, older engine code

    Interesting.

    So the one you've got is for the newer engine, such as in my MY11?

    For $30 I reckon it's worth a go if it suits.

    the stage 2 tune comes with the apr downpipe. currently its priced at $1375, from goapr.
    Hey guys, super old post revival, but still relevant I hope. I can't quite work out how much it will be for the d/p and stage 2 tune ...

    Darkshadow, you make it quite clear that the Stg2 tune comes with the APR downpipe but ..

    Stage 1 tune 1,495 - APR - High Performance Development for Audi, VW and Porsche Vehicles.
    Dump pipe $1,375 - APR - High Performance Development for Audi, VW and Porsche Vehicles.

    I would have thought that these are two individual costs to be added together ? What am I reading wrong here ?

    You do have to add those 2 together.

    Darkshadow probably already had a Stage 1 and then upgraded the DP and got the tune at the same time.

    correct....stg 1 done 1st, then i got downpipe.
    apr downpipe requires a retune, hence it takes u up to a stg 2 tune.
    so, yes combine the two for the total cost.

    u can't go to the apr downpipe directly - u need the stg 1 tune first.

    also, because the RS comes std with the uprated high pressure fuel pump, you get to stg 2+ when combined with the apr catback.

    On a pre-MQB platform you can get a quality DP for <$1k. You can get a stage2 tune for <$1k without having to pay for the stage 1 tune. Money left over for other mods.

    Have another read of the APR down pipe page
    APR - High Performance Development for Audi, VW and Porsche Vehicles.

    APR Stage II ECU Upgrade price waived.
    Pay $1,600 for the down pipe and the stage 2 tune comes with it

    Yes, this is true but not what I was saying.
    For APR you have to pay for a stage1 tune before you can get the stage 2 with the DP. It's still a premium price compared to many of the other vendors.

    So if you want to run stage2 with an APR DP then it's $2500-$3000. The others are nowhere near that.

    Also, if you don't run an APR tune but want to buy their DP there's no discount for the stage 2 you don't use.
