Re: NEW MEMBER - 1.8 GTI TSI Manual Tuning Options
There are plenty of other places out there that remap these cars so have a search about what's close to you.
I've got a sachs organic clutch and would recommend that but it is heavy. There's RTS and helix also do clutches for it.

Re: NEW MEMBER - 1.8 GTI TSI Manual Tuning Options
with myself having a basically a 400bhp polo 1.8 tsi, it really does depend on how far you wan't to take it.
for a stage 1 i'd say APR but it all ends there as they stopped doing stage 2 a month or so ago. Revo would probably be my next choice for an off the shelf map.
you do not need to worry ...
