There are so many that I don't know from which one to choose.
From my point of view (and maybe many others to) I look at the graph and I see one is more curved than the other and one gives more HP then other ... but I bet there is more underneath this.
For example, I understood that tunes that gives high torque in low RPM stresses the engine the most and are more prone to have engine failure, if this is true, you guys hope can confirm.
Some tunes are more aggressive then others with high/low torque options as well, what I want is one that's the most natural, that gives torque in a linear way. I saw some gives 3k/rpm maximum and than dies out. I know turbo has it's limitations but still, even if I am a newbie in this I can tell that is not the best.
My question is if there is someone who understands this topic to name some companies that make tunes more engine friendly and are not that aggressive.
I have MK7.5 GTI DSG which makes the main reason not wanting an over aggressive tune (wheel spin etc.), beside the protection of the engine.
Just for the record I will want to upgrade, in time, after the stage one: inter cooler, air intake, down pipe, turbo inlet (to cool down better and have a better airflow because of the hot area I live in, 45°C/113°F 8months a year)
