    I got Raclingline's Stage 1 tune on my 245 Tiguan Allspace (basically the Gti engine) as part of their Beta testing back in November.
    It now chucks out 339PS and 500Nm and using a rather shonky Android App timed 0-60 in 4.67 & 1/4 mile in a smidge over 13.
    Chris and the team in Milton Keynes are proper gents, can't wait to get my suspension lowered next and a chance to get the latest tune which see it good for 350PS

    You could make a thousand enhancements to the car, some of them perhaps insignificant in their performance gains. Yet, as the owner, deep down you know that the ultimate change lies in swapping the engine for an Audi 5-cylinder TFSI. We all put up a tough front, but in the end, we all give in.

    It seems there are so few who do a comparison with dyno numbers for the TCU tune. I have a 22 and I think I have one that is tunable (will find out end of this month). It’s been hard to come buy videos of the effect of the ECU and TCU on the golf R as it seems only some of the 2022 builds are able to do so. Thanks for show us, I’m really looking forward to the TCU and ECU tune

    I recently had the Racingline Stage 1 (low torque version) added to my MK8 R, however the turbo turbine blades cracked and destroyed the turbo. Car is only 2 months old from new. Sad times. Luckily Racingline paid for the replacement (as VW wouldn't cover it under warranty due to the tune) and installation. Not sure if it were a faulty part from factory, or it was the tune. Really hesitant to get remapped again.
