Fuel Tank Burst?

I have a 2016 GTI and I've burst the tank on a speed jump are all the fuel tanks the same across the Vag range like ibiza polos and fabia. Just a tank that's from a GTI is hard too find and very pricey.

Re: APR CRACKLE MAP?

This is a pop and bang map or crackle map what ever yous class it as. It's not from APR fully custom stage 2 pop and bang map. It's running a full d3cat straight pipe system mind. So won't be as loud or pop on as much with a normal exhaust hench why I straight piped mine.
