The great big MK6 Golf 118TSI tuning thread

[Brendan_A]

On another note does anyone know if the APR tune for the 118TSI has been revised since the end of June last year?

There was a revise tune put out around October. But depending on what fuel system your car has determines whether it can be used. I was lucky on my car and had it updated in November The mid range is so much stronger now!

I'm looking forward to seeing how APR new hybrid turbo goes on the twincharge.

Thanks to The_Hawk for starting a thread for the 118TSI. My car is stock at the moment and looking to get a tune for it.

Thanks for making the thread.

I was told by Guy_H that for old 118's you can purchase the new fuel pump if needed so you can get the upgraded ECU software from APR. I've also been keeping an eye on the various Poli GTI tuning discussions as they have the same engine (albeit a slightly different engine bay configuration).

The Polo 6R Intercooler won't fit in the MK6 chassis. Completely different.

That's correct - we need the APR Golf GTI with a few mods to the connections.

I'm running an S3 cooler with only having to trim the OEM hoses. Much cheaper option than the APR cooler.

Oh cool - got any details (performance/price comparisons, where to buy, who will install, etc)?
