How much does the GTI's 2.0 TSI take?
It is a turbocharged petrol with genuine headroom, which is why it has such a strong tuning tradition. Stage 1 works with standard hardware.
Why so much Stage 2 work?
Because a large share of these cars arrive with intake, exhaust or intercooler modifications already fitted. If your car is standard, Stage 1 applies.
What are the DQ transmission ECUs?
They are the dual-clutch gearbox units. Work on them adjusts shift points and torque limits, which matters on a car with this much torque.
