He's in the wrong car if $500 is something to seriously think about.
If $500 is something to seriously think about he should just leave it stock. Gotta pay to play.

What do you guys think about Stratified?
First of all $500 aint no big deal. Those $500 could be spent on something else like an IC. I personally don’t really care for a custom tune like most of you guys. Having to do datalogs and send shit back and forth. Fk that! I rather get an OTS tune.
Im looking at Unitronic stage 2, EQT’s base map, or MTM (go ahead and hate)
OR if someone here had more info on MTM that be cool too.
If needed, yes.Are EQT’s base map updated?
Thnx for the advice.I can’t speak from experience but from what I understand good upper mounts keep the torque steer under control in these cars. GTIs have very predictable power delivery also, so maybe that helps to modulate it. Still have yet to seriously track mine, as I’m also in the market for a custom tune to make sure everything looks good before abusing in absurd heat soak Florida.
Considered swapping the ED but if Sneeky or EQT will tune on that platform I see no reason; it does have a ton of bang right out of the box.
His name is Adam. I spoke to him and he told me about MTM but he has a DSG. I looked on Youtube and there’s nothing about MTM on the MK7. Except the video of Adams car doing drive-bys. I wanted to hear on the “manual” owners if they had this tune. Most of you guys running APs and APR exc. Nothing wrong with them. I was just wondering what MTM got into play.
From what Adam told me its been great for him being tuned over two years. No issues. Its a full flash tune through MTMs own computer not through access port. He told me he did an ECU and TCU tune. On MTMs website they got Stage1+ tune thats a modified exhaust tune that gets you those burbles. The burbles/crackles are kept conservative, modeled after the stock Clubsport tune which has burbles from factory. Ontop of them having excellent customer service. I was just curious to see anyone here running that.
