Hey guys! Been awhile since I’ve posted (have an Alltrack instead of a GTI instead of a Sportwagen now!). Wondering if anyone might be able to help me with this situation:
I just picked up my 2017 VW Alltrack from precision Motorworks in Santa Clara and was Alarmed to find that they had installed the stage 1 tune I requested without first removing my neuspeed power module. I specifically asked them to remove it before they started the whole process, but apparently they misunderstood (they thought I was referring to my P3cars turbo gauge I have plugged into my OBD2 port) and left it in the whole time and test drove it with it stacked on top of the stage 1 tune. I insisted that they remove once they returned the car to me, which they did, however I am wondering if the tune is now calibrated incorrectly, as when they test drove the car with the module in, they said the power improvement was huge and it feels like a GTI but when I tried the car after they removed it, it didn’t feel much different than how it felt before I got the tune. Is it bad to have installed the tune on top of the neuspeed? I thought it was (hence why I asked them to remove it) however now I’m Wondering if I should have left it in since it almost seems like the tune already accounted for the Neuspeed and is now quite a bit shy without it. Do I need to have the whole tune installed again or is there anything I can do to fix this on my own?
