1.8 TSI Stage 1 using Mac anyone?

[bcbcbc]

I am considering an APR Stage 1 for my MK7 Golf 1.8 TSI.
Has anyone done an install via their MacBook? I do not have a windows based laptop, but was told that you can use a Windows simulator.
Curious if anyone has any recommendations as I would like to do this tune from home.

Thanks guys!

Do you have a APR dealer near by? That may be your best bet.

I can’t speak to APR but most of the at home tunes I’ve seen won’t run on anything but windows. They won’t run in a virtual box either.

The advantage of going to a dealer (there must be one around Chicago here) is that I wouldn't need to purchase the $170 Cheetah cable, correct? Any disadvantage?

They may charge you an hour of labor time. Even with the cheetah cable, I don't think you can flash whatever you want. I think you need to make an appointment with someone to flash.
