Very good figures and smooth power delivery. I've had a dtuk box on my car for about 4 weeks now and have found it fantastic. So much so in fact my father is getting one for his juke nismo rs

Shameless plug here but if anyone is interested I have a DTUK box for sale that is to come off my Octavia vRS 184 bhp VAG diesel so will fit the mark 7 & 7.5 GTD. let me know if anyone fancies it

Pretty impressive results on the dyno :cool:
The slightly different shapes on the graph are quite interesting, subtly different.
Love the plate too :grin:

Nice curves, what map do you run as a daily drive? I found 3+2 too aggressive on the GTI for daily use and the DSG didn't like it. In the end after lots or experiments the 2+3 was perfect from me.

I can't make my mind up which I prefer so keep messing around.

Funny you should mention 2 +3 as I've been changing mine about as well and have found this perfect too. I had veered towards 1 + 2 for a while but found it less smooth low down whereas 2 + 3 is perfect throughout the rev range.

That must be a nippy GTD!

Nice figures. Anyone got any graphs for the GTI PP?

Bit of a noob question here, but are these performance figures as a result of the installation of the pedal box only, or has there been an ECU remap done too? I had thought that the pedal box just tweaked the throttle input map, so I'm struggling to understand how that can result in such a large BHP increase.
Apologies if I've misunderstood all this!
Cheers,
Phil

No its a tuning box, not a pedal box.

DTUK make both a tuning box and a pedal box.

the GTI and GTD use different tuning modules and different files so best not to compare the two :)

They import them from DTE in Germany.

Whilst you are here Andrew - have you any observations on using your tuning box with premium diesel? I accidentally picked up the Premium Texaco nozzle the other day, so just went ahead and filled the tank. It honestly felt like another 20bhp had been added to the car, and I don't think it was placebo as I had forgotten all about it until I noticed the car was picking up much faster than normal.
I normally add Millers EcoMax to each tank, but I've never felt the car drive like this.
Also - nice dyno's Finglonga, I've used 2+2 for a long time, would have been interesting to see a +2 vs a +3 too! I can also recommend adding a pedal box if not already.
