High output on my fully stock GTI felt like it wanted to rip the darn car apart...the power was useless at low speeds. IMO 380 ft/lb is overkill for FWD without a bunch of supporting mods.
Went and got 91 Low (same tune as APR Plus) within 4 days. It’s only like 5 HP less than 93 and gives some leeway for bad gas or if I am traveling through states that primarily offer 91 (such as IL and GA). Also the station near my home sells 92 for some odd reason which saves a few bucks on fill ups.
It would nice if APR offered program switching on the Mk7s.

Was that the APR st1 high torque you had for a while? I was wondering how it compares. Is there much more noticeable stomp in the mid range during roll ons, for instance, 60-130 pulls and so on?
Totally agree with you the lo torque is a great balanced power level - not too overwhelming for the tires if you have good quality rubber etc. I can imagine the hi torque getting wheel hoppy off the line but I would think it shines in roll ons?
