Just wondering if anyone with a TB+ can shed light on what the "PerfecTune" function does.

I recently fitted a PB+ and have just been driving it without having followed the "PerfecTune" instructions. 

The car drives fine as is, but I'm wondering if this tuning feature will give me anything in addition to just the regular plug and play?

You'd have not held onto a Yamaha R1 and that's half an R and only 200ps ;-)

I reckon so if it had a 3/4 seater (if they made them?) sidecar attached.

Would love to know if there is any real difference in use between the pedal box and pedal box+.

I've got the Remus aka regular pedal box and to be honest can't really see how it could be any better?

Might have to borrow one for a week and do a comparison.

I think its just nicer packaging and support for the newest type of electronic throttle position messaging, which a Golf doesn't have yet.

The boxes are pretty car model/manufacturer generic

Thought as much, so little point going for the plus version unless you plan to have it showing, mines hidden in the cubby box.

In case anyone else is wondering about the "PerfecTune" feature on the PB+, I tried it and to be honest can't notice any difference.  No better or worse than just plug and play out of the box.
