Stage 1 vs. Stage 2 Golf R

[Lucas_R]

I think just about everything is cheaper than APR. Cant believe how much that company charges for things.

Thanks for the info! Wonder if a custom dump pipe is cheaper then say APR?

11ty kw at the wheels doesn't come cheap!

TS,
just curious..which stage 2 map are u on? whats the max boost?

The apr v2.3 tune (stage 2+) said 22psi on my gauge but only around 18psi on dyno graph. I'm in the process of trying something new now but.

So an update on my situation. I got the latest APR file put in my car (v3.1) and there is only one word for it...... WOW!!

Previously the car made 185awkw with their stage 2+ tune, just got the car run up on the same dyno this morning and it made 200.4awkw. A gain of nearly 15awkw!!

Big thanks to the guys at APR i am cheering with how hard the car is pulling now. Not trying to be a fanboy by any means but this is proof to the haters that this new tune is a good one. I will post the dyno graph on Monday when i get to the scanner at work.

Happy Days!!

^^ good result with the updated tune mate - you must be happy now. The original 185kw is disappointing though.

Especially for the money asked.

Yeah well i think that 185kw file will no longer be used and all who have the old file will get the update for free, like I did

Car feels 100% transformed.
