Bluefin and KN panel filter

Found a cheap deal on a Bluefin unit and KN panel filter, anybody else used a Bluefin on their gti 1.4? Is it just simple plug and play or do you need to have the ecumenical opened and enabled? I am a bit hesitant to do anything engine wise after all the horror stories I have read, but also see a lot of gti's in the classifieds with 90 thousand plus miles so they can't all be bad?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Had stage 1 Bluefin on my 2011 scirocco 1.4TSI twincharger with a manual box. The map is relatively mild compared to some others. No problems in 60k miles and still not using any oil when sold. Would not bother with the panel filter as it will not affect performance. You need to go on the Bluefin website to find out if you can just load the map through the OBD port like I could with mine. Depends on the age of the car I believe.
