Polo GTI APR ECU Upgrade

[stickshift3000]

I mean, look at the Golf GTI and the R - both only come in a single colour (GTI Tornado Red, R Rising Blue).

Eh? The gti is available in 5 colours, the R is available in 4 colours.

Maybe I'm missing something here...

Not rising blue... but the Audi's have many more colours in each model than the Volkswagen's. I mean, look at the Golf GTI and the R - both only come in a single colour (GTI Tornado Red, R Rising Blue). The Polo GTI and Scirocco R comes in only two colours each. Flash Red & Shadow Blue (Polo), Viper Green & Rising Blue (Scirocco). Volkswagen seriously need to get a personality check

So what about the Blue Polo GTI and the white Polo GTI?

White and Black are not colours... nor are all the other shades of grey inbetween....

[wezzel98765]

I beg to differ

[Corey_R]

You can beg all you want.... doesn't change the facts...

But alas, it's not the topic of this thread. You can buy your white cars with all absence of colour if you want. It's just a shame others can't chose colours better suited to their taste or personality because Volkswagen (particularly VW Australia) limit the colour choice to 1 or 2 per model (along with the boring white, a few shades of grey, and black tones they seem to offer on everything)

Can we expect to see that new tune sometime soon?

Judging by this post here, it's already available.

But that user is in Brisbane, so it may be a little different with regards to distribution times to other states.

Haven't seen any kind of announcement on their website or change on the website product page.

Its now available. Just send me a message before you see your APR dealer & I'll arrange the correct file to be available.

There will be revised power figures on the website later, but no big announcement, its a revision

Hey Guy, just wondering what the oil usage is like in your Polo? I ask because you have previously mentioned that it's not using oil much, if at all and it's been drien hard and had a tune in it from very early on. Speaking with someone in the UK, Revo over there believe that part of the issue has to do with the stock engine mapping and spark related issues which is supposedly causing "bore wash" which I could only interpret as meaning the bores are being glazed, hence the oil consumption issues. With your tinkering, would you also believe this to be true, or just speculation on the part of Revo....?

I'm not trying to compare brands etc here, especially as this is a thread dedicated to your company, just after some insight, that's all
