Considering a swap here but I can't seem to find any decent tunes for it. Has anyone had any luck with a private tuner?

Unitronic is the only tune I know of. I have been using Eurodyne Stage 2 while waiting for a real tune.

This is a route I'm open to down the road.

Compared to your stock turbo, how is the R different in feel, delivery...etc?

I'm just concerned that with traction already being my issue at ED Stage 2 guise (granted, I still have the stock Pirellis), an upgraded turbo will put me in spin-city :/

I saw a post with a guy in South America getting 390whp, however it doesn't state what he used for a tune. @mohamed67 how did you custom tune and what were your numbers/ supporting upgrades.

^^ wow that's quite disappointing considering the stage two apr is putting out 400 torque. :/ bummer man. I would have figured more from a bigger turbo. I've seen bigger numbers (around 350-360hp and 390 tq from apr stage 2 and turbo upgrade. Did your tuner purposely limit tq for traction reasons?

APR numbers are crank, I don't think any stage 2 tune from anyone is doing 400 lbs ft.

How do you like your Autotech hpfp I feel like I've bin getting fuel cuts shifting from 4 down to 3 at WOT at least I think it feel like the fuel cuts I got on my mk5 before I got a hpfp btw I'm Eurodyne stage 2

You cannot compare dyno numbers straight across like you are trying to do.

Strong numbers for only 24psi... is that your peak boost or boost where peak HP was measured at? My APR stg 2 is reading peak boost at ~28PSI with the IS38, but it lowers to around 23.5PSI at 5-6Krpms. Was the Autotech HPFP required for additional fuel or is it something you installed a preventative?
