APR used to offer switchable maps (different octanes, STD, valet and ECU lock out) using the cruise control as the switch and so is this a STD map or the original?
Current: GTI Edition 35 Candy White 5dr DSG 19" Glendale, RCD510+DAB, Dynaudio, Storage Pack, Parking Sensors

Gone: Edition 35, GTI Mk6, Edition 30, GTI Mk4, GTI Mk3, GTI Mk2 and my favourite the UR quattro
For those that dont know DSG is an electronically controlled dual-clutch multiple-shaft manual gearbox

Supposedly APR is also coming out with an iPhone app where you can switch programs with it.

How does it talk to the car though?  Surely it needs a connection to the OBD?

I THINK you connect something to the OBD port. Im not sure and I dont know when APR is going to release it IF they release it. They havent given a timeframe on it and from what I have read the pictures and info should of never been released.

Cheers guys.
I decided to go for the Bluefin for its ease of use and price. Im very happy with results and impressed with the mid-range torque.
Lets see if I can shave a second off my time at Bug Jam n maybe cross the line at 100 mph+  :evil:

Does anyone know what kind of power output you are looking at with the bluefin? Ive been quoted £250 for a standard remap and he says he has made around 250 on the rolling roads. 

What benefit is having a bluefin??
