I tried st2 on 91 after running st1 for 1.5 years. There's a very noticeable difference.Appreciate all of the comments guys. To clarify I have never flashed to stage 1. I bypassed stage 1. So I'm not sure why I'm not feeling the difference. Maybe I'll just blame the stock clutch and 91 octane fuel.

ohhhh good point. I was kinda referring to a stage 1 with downpipe as you suspected.. but no tune whatsoever.. and super low boost? ya it should have been huge then. but uni does take a while to adjust up, and keep in mind its one of the milder tunes for sure. i have had 4 VW's with APR and 3 with Unitronic. I think I will give Cobb a try sometime in the future also.
I called Unitronic and they verified that the file is the correct one for my car. I also flashed back to stock and then back to St2. This is my first car with a tune, so maybe I am just not experienced enough to notice the difference.you could run 87 octane (dont do this) but you would feel a huge huge difference. check the file / report back. clutch will hold the power its not that, over time clutch will slip, but the power would still be there. no worries, trial and error it happens

My car has been and is definitely still fast af, but I think it's all of the hardware that I installed that deserve most of the credit. I do plan on keeping the Uni tune.
I appreciate everyone's feedback and advice! Maybe one day Ill get it on a dyno.

Same here. I flashed back to stock to get a sticker and it was horrible lol....back to stage 2 bliss now!I am still floored that you can't tell it's tuned adding that much power? Should be wildly different.
No F'ing way it will gain that much HP/Tq with an OTS tune.ya right... those numbers are pretty ridiculous. my car does not have that gain.
Dyno it.No F'ing way it will gain that much HP/Tq with an OTS tune.
That's silly talk.
Word. Just got new tires last week and I think the dogbone and inserts are next in the chute.My previous car was a stage 2 Gti and the common problem was wheel spin and hop slowing me down. Best thing I ever did was get good winter tires, a dog bone mount to control the slop with inserts. This made a huge difference.
Or you could just get an R
