Hey everyone! I'm a first time vw owner and the GTI was a little outta my price range so I went with the next best thing!

2016, MY16 Golf 110TSI + R-line.

I was looking to start tuning my car and modding it up but honestly I have no idea where to start. I've googled around a bit but that just made me all the more confused haha. I've contacted Recode tuning and the forums all say he's good with a good price (I was quoted $1200 for a tune + $800 for dsg tuning) but I honestly have no idea.

Anybody have any tips on where to start with everything?
