Hahah. $300 more than I paid for a brand new Golf Sportwagen!

6MT.

To each his own, but with the gearing of a GSW/Alltrack, I'm not sure how I'd feel about "a bit later" spool than a stock is38 + IE DP. I haven't logged with the DP but I was seeing 0.5bar at 2500, 1bar at 3000, 1.4 peak with Unitronic's OTS is38 tune and the stock exhaust. I think it's a...

Not knowing anything about anything, would it be possible to swap everything out of the RS3 into the R? Instrument cluster, infotainment, body harness, etc. It would be a lot of work but it should be straightforward compared to hours and hours of fiddly pin-by-pin work marrying (then...

By someone, you mean me but I'm glad it doesn't have it. :) I checked this morning - definitely no extra noise on overrun.

I haven't noticed it. Maybe it's just subtle with a stock exhaust? Alternative: the marketing department just got it wrong. The page also mentions the "EU-style startup overrun", which I haven't noticed. To Sparky's point, I found some old posts on Vortex saying you shouldn't run the...

Here's a link to my log (in CSV from VCDS): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1WRn5hQ5FFI7eo682YHAB7v5qg0uUUXr6 https://datazap.me/u/mfennell/log-1588773459?log=0&data=0-2

Quicker follow-up than I expected from Unitronic. Target is 1.4-1.5 so I'm there. Good points joedubs. The smoothness is probably throwing off my butt dyno calibration. Probably something to be had with an IC but it was 50F and I only did a single pull.

Has anyone done a Unitronic 2+ w/is38? My setup, just finished this past weekend: Stock air filter (aFe on order) Stock air box w/snow guard removed MST tube & elbow is38 (duh) Stock exhaust Stock intercooler I know I'm leaving some power on the table but I was a little underwhelmed so I...

Final note: I mis-understood. I'm just using the latest 1+ file now and it's much better. John didn't think anything had been changed that should have directly addressed the behavior. Go figure. I'm 99% sure it's not a placebo effect. I wonder if the throttle mapping was changed. That...

Preliminary results very good. I managed to get it to happen a few times but the duration and severity was about 1/2 according to the logs. More importantly, my normal drive style doesn't seem to trigger it. I was giving it slightly more throttle this morning compared to my last tests though...

New file ready to upload. I know what I'm doing this weekend!

Yes, I agree. JohnS says I'm the only one complaining out of 1100+ people on the same tune file but I complain with data. :) It shows what I'm describing is happening and I'm not directly causing it. He said he's putting a file together for me to try. In related news, I love VCDS. I wonder...

Interesting info this w/e. I logged fuel injection timing and fuel delivery. And, assuming they mean what I think they mean, now I can see it go sideways. With the accelerator pedal perfectly still - out to 2 decimal places - the car pulls fuel, closes the throttle plate a bit and the RPMs...

I have a PERFECT straight, lightly traveled 1 mile stretch of road near me. Unfortunately, it's on a federal park. In the off-season, a couple of my friends will occasionally do some minor hooning there but I'd be the guy who encounters a ranger at 110mph... I have a great 3rd gear spot a...

Quick update. I made it past the first tier support to the technical director who sent me a logging config file for my new VCDS. That's right, I used the problems with the tune as an excuse to spend more money. :)

I got past the basic tech support and the tech director sent me a VCDS pre-selection file for some proper logging. VCDS cable will be in hand tomorrow.

Last night it occurred to me I'll be installing the 'stock' tune I got from Unitronics, which is not guaranteed to be the one I started with. Oh well...

You're completely right and I will do that. I just hate sitting around while it flashes. :)

Jumping in from the 1.8t forum (I have a '19 Sportwagen 4MO 6MT) to ask if any of the GTI owners have had problems with a stumble while moving easily from a stop in 1st gear. If I pull away gently with about 1/4 pedal down, I get one or two (or three if I'm especially lucky) bucks that hit...
