Bluefin Edition 30

[Hurdy]

Anyone thinking of getting one of these?

The site quotes standard output of Ed30 tested at 244bhp and 231ft/lb and the upgrade to 307bhp and 288ft/lb.

Not quite sure if I would want that much power and torque through the front wheels though

Spoke to Milltek and they are developing a full exhaust system for the Ed30 which is due for a May release. This may give me enough extra horsies and torques without a remap

Don't bother with Superchips.

There were a number of previous threads regarding the crap service regarding their Bluefin, and also general issues with the way they actually modify their maps.

For chips, REVO and Oettinger would be my only recomendation, though others will no doubt be along to defend Superchips, in the same way the US Gov't defends killing friendly troops!

I'm not going to defend superchips cause I've never had one - but I just like the idea of being able to do the bluefin mod in my own driveway... and being able to undo it at any time by myself!

I'll maybe consider one in a few months when the Ed30's bugs have been ironed out and there are people saying it works great.
I have to actually GET my car first though

cool i thought the edition 30 was gonna be around 237bhp same as the leon, just wanna wait for someone else to do a map for it now, ie custom code or aps, would prefer a switchable one though personaly

I can recommend Bluefin as I have it on my GTI. 

Results are superb and technical support was excellent when I was having problems downloading my new map.

Been having a look at Oettinger site and again looks good for tuning.

Carbon ram air looks a particularly sweet piece of kit

But you can do exactly the same with the VAG-specific chip tuner offerings, from the likes of REVO and APR.  Trust me, they are considerably better than SuperSh!ts!

There are also people who had huge problems with the Bluefin, and actually got a full refund!

How/why do you base your "recommendation ??

Results are superb

Compared to which other specialist VAG chip tuners ?

technical support was excellent when I was having problems downloading my new map.

Problems - you just don't get ANY problems with the dedicated VAG tuner that is REVO !!!!!
