The tuning box on the '3' setting has been known to cause issues. Probably depending on the version of tuning box and software it's running. Although the tuning boxes are marketed for specific models I'm pretty sure the software on them is used on various engines of the same capacity (not just the same power output) so the settings can be a bit too much on certain programs.
The pedalbox is the same for all mk7 Golfs and possibly other cars that use the MQB platform. Thanks to its adjustability you can set it up to just take that ridiculous dead bit of travel out which is ideal for models such as the R or ClubSport with more aggressive ECU throttle maps or in Eco models like the GTD you can really liven up the responses which knocks out that bit of lag before the turbo really spools when you're hovering around the 2k RPM mark. Switching the pedalbox off again makes the car seem so lethargic it's unreal!
