How do you find it happy or not
Well what can I say, my bluefin came today and within an hour my ed30 dsg was singing with around 300 bhp.

The entire set up was really easy and I had no need to speak to the technicians, not yet anyway,....

I haven't really had chance to open her up yet although I can confirm the following;

Around town the car feels much smoother (not sure why though) and is happy to act as normal without any sign of the potential 300bhp under the bonnet, however on the dual carriage way, plant your foot and thank you very much, from anything above 2.5k revs, the car really flies, it almost seems like the car has an extra gear as in 3rd the acceleration is mind blowing, 4, 5, 6 and even in 6th you feel the car has so much pull it just doesn't seem to want to stop :drool:

I am hoping to do a bit of mileage over the next few days to be sure I've made the right choice, sure I have, just will take getting used to the diferent bite points as they are slightly different from before, for example, I used to use 4th to accelerate away on motorways, now it's happy to do this in 3rd!!!

One question I did have, if anyone can help me, many thanks, question is this, does the car learn the new mapping and maximise the performance over time, bottom line is, will it open up again after a fair few miles???

If in doubt, try it, you won't be disappointed!!! :grin:

yes the ECU does self-learn and will tweak a few things
Revo stg2+ & lots more
