  1. I have the APR stage 1 on a low torque 95 Ron tune on my MK8 R. Produced about 380 on RR. Very modest tune and OEM type response. Removes the stop start and delimits top speed. No regrets but looking forward to TCU unlock to fully benefit. Don’t like the sound of the full torque map as this is likely to be fooling TCU into allowing more torque which sounds like a recipe for trouble with TCU in long term.

  6. Change the caliper to a Brembo 4pot or an AP Racing 6pot There are pistons on both sides of the disc with these much better feel. The DB9 rear Brembo caliper is excellent! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  8. Hi Folks Just asking if anyone wise has experienced occasional clunky shifting on there Dsg box when set in manual/Sport. I think it must be software related and not mechanical. Perhaps my driving style is the cause as most of the time my commute is slow in traffic and blasts rare! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Most remaps do that as part of software update. Stop start remains set as was prior to last shut down. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Hi Anyone tried this map ? It looks good figures but worried as regards clutch slip or but find off the torque limiter on DSG box I know they do a low torque file but how effective is that ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
