What made you go with the NPM over jb1? Also, which exhaust did you get?
Neuspeed Power Module installed tonight. All I can say is WOW. Really surprised what this little box offers in the way of power and speed. You can feel it with even a slight touch of the pedal.
Car accelerates way faster, you can even hear the turbo spooling more clearly. Car used to redline in 2nd at 60mph but now it redlines at 70mph+ in what feels like a much faster amount of time. End result: 0-60 noticeably quicker. But it's the 30-90 that's insane. Can see easily now what ppl meant when they said this car can walk a lot of things from a roll.
Surprised how much the car gains with just a piggyback. Looking at a 20% increase in WHP with a simple plug and play. This will entertain me plenty for now.

did you get to Joshypoos at NLS?
I actually did reach out today but they're booked for the next two weeks. Must be a great place.
I was able to get in with AP Tuning for Saturday.

I got non-stop looks on the drive home. I guess I'll have to get used to the attention
Hulk, The car looks killer. I have had a lot of Red cars in the past and told myself never again but I think it may be my favorite for this MK7 GTI. The Black wheels and tint really make it pop. I was wondering where you got the tint done since I am in the same general area as you.
I am sure you are in love with the car all over again after that little power box. They are impressive for a piggyback!

Thanks man, yeah I'm finally glad I went for the black accents once the wheels were on. And was surprised how noticeable the piggyback was initially. Nice power boost for a cheap price.
Place I went to was called High End Tint in Allentown. Not sure if you're near that way at all. They did a great job, no air bubbles, no issues, fair pricing. The guy there said he figured out the "trick" to doing the little windows up near the front doing my car. Not everybody cares to since they're such a pain in the neck.
