Volkswizard Drives Racingline’s Polo GTI

YouTube video at the link below, which could be of interest to anyone thinking of making performance mods to their GTI.

This video has also been posted over on the Golf R forum. Volkzwizard (Andrew Chapple) makes a couple of slightly negative comments about the Golf R towards the end of the video which prompted some predictable responses by forum members over on that forum (how dare he criticise the Golf R! 🤣), but then Volkswizard seems to be generally disliked on the R forum because he appears to prefer GTI’s over the R 🙂.

Thanks for posting SRGTD.

Good video. I didn't realise Racingline had released the their Tuning software, have been waiting on that for a long time. Checked their website and it seems their offering a Stage 1 & Stage 1+ (with required Hardware upgrades). My Warranty would be up in May of 2022, so it's tempting to finally go for a remap.

Have to laugh at Racingline charging £84 for a coolant cap though. :roll: :lol:

Yes, I don’t think I’d spend £84 on a coolant cap.

It’s a shame Racingline’s R360 alloys aren’t available for the Polo. IMHO they’re a really nice OEM style wheel and a set in Gunmetal on a white Polo GTI+ would look good 😎.

Do they give any prices for the remap?

Will be interesting to know what the insurance premium increase is after the stage 1 plus.
