DTUK box on a Mk7 GTI GTD results

[Johnc41]

John, I am really interested to hear about how you get on with the tuning box. I will be putting one on mine as soon as I get the car too. How much did it change the insurance? (if at all  )

I have bought the box so I should get it end of next week so I will let you know how I get on. I have never bothered telling me insurance to be honest lol. Chance I will take. I can get it checked on rolling road and get a read out. But having had so many remaps I will know just by driving it how it compares to my remapped ed35 which was 310bph.

Yes J it sounds good and I would prefer it as it saves any problems with warranty. I bought one for my polo diesel and it made a great difference that I use for my work. He gave me 10% discount because I bought from him before. It was £440. So going down to London on Sunday to pick the car up. Bought it through dtd.

Sounds great John. Really looking forward to seeing your results now! I am only 500 miles in but you know what it's like, you always want more power!

How is your exhaust sounding? I think mines a little quiet, the edition 35 seems much louder.

I hope it's not louder lol. I will tell you on Monday when I get it as to how it compares to ed35 lol. Yes you can never get enough power lol. I just felt that the dtuk box is just not enough power for me that's why I went for this box. I had a mark 6 gti and it was remapped and was really sh!t compared to the ed35. I hated the new e888 engine it was crap for tuning. So I am glad they have redone it for the mark 7 for more tuning lol.

I just feel the GTI should be a little louder as standard. The ed35 definitely has a deeper exhaust note. Hmmm mid box delete maybe...

You got me worried now J lol. Will need to leave the windows open. I loved my r32 it was an amazing sound and you just can't get that out of a gti lol

There's nothing like that v6 motor! I have been told the mk7 gti sounds good from the outside, but on the inside all you can hear is induction/sound actuator noise. (not that it's a bad sound  )
