Just seeing what people thing about their stage1 tunes (2018 gti specifically)
with a tune pusing the eninge up 40 HP give or take afu, is the power difference that notacible in the 0-110kmh range? Ive heard they are good for 100-200kmh but i wont every really be going that fast so dont care about that.
Also does it effect the sound much? no OPF so pretty decent now i think
spent all my money on my polo so not sure if its worth going more into debt for something that might be almost unoticible.
What do you think? cheers
Should I stage 1 tune my polo?

Re: Should I stage 1 tune my polo?
I can certainly recommend it. Went to 270+ HP. The main difference is that instead of not happening very much from about 4500 rpm, it keeps going after that. Hence the much better 100 - 200 time (in my case 14,5 sec instead of 20+). But of course that difference presents itself in every in between acceleration. This engine can really use a remap (normally I would have been satisfied with 200 hp)
