Yo I’m not sure if I’m in the right thread to ask this but… I’m about to tune my 2017 GTI soon but I just wanna make sure and clear my head on what I need to upgrade before hand and shit. I know I need obv spark plugs, coil packs, I need a turbo inlet etc.
what stage are you tuning to? How many miles are on your current spark plugs? You definitely don’t need coil packs unless you are already dealing with misfires, and have already changed the plugs. Turbo inlets aren’t required for ANY stage, including full frame aftermarket turbos (Stage 3/4)
in other words - none of what you stated is necessary, unless you haven’t changed your plugs since new. If it’s on factory plugs just replace with OEM plugs and call it a day.
now - the above advice is specific to stage 1. There are hardware requirements for stage 2.
