Avoid chips and plug in boxes.  All they really are, are cheap resistors which fool the car into thinking it needs more fuel

Spend your pennies on a proper remap where everything is adjusted to produce safe, reliable power  :smiley:

Just fools the fuel.. :grin: mabye a few lbft gains so well worth 99p BUT vs a propper software remap it going to be night and day in a huge way. :laugh: ?

Which TDI do you have? if its no PD then you can easy add 10bhp/10lbft by adjusting the pump setpoint IQ adjuster with a hammer & T30, and setup with vagcom to set the idle IQ.
