Thanks Jaymz, sounds like money well spent. I would have gone down this route myself (before spending money on suspension and body kits), but I have the DSG gearbox and will be limited to about a 25nm increase in torque. I would get the same power gain, but nowhere near the same torque increase that you got.
I'm very interested in the dyno results though, because I have heard that the GT TDI's consistently produce more power and torque than the figures claimed by VW. I have heard of standard cars producing over 180 bhp and over 360 nm, which means that the gains claimed by the tuning companies may be somewhat overstated.
Still, as you say, it's not all about power, it's about driveability too, and it sounds as though that has been significantly improved....hmmm decisions, decisions...
Anyway, I need to get my panels straightened before I worry about anything else - I had a run in with a rather large member of the local kangaroo population!
