MY21 Octavis vRS Stage 1 Upgrade
Hi all,
My first post to this forum and am hoping someone can help.
I had a MY19 GTI and used Superchips Bluefin unit to upgrade the engine to Stage 1. Unfortunately when I tried to use the Superchip unit to upgrade my new Octavia vRS (same engine) the unit couldn't get through the Skoda CPU firewall - and yes, I had Superchip in UK look at this after they reset the handset, and their advice was "sorry, can't help. Skoda have modified their CPU and we can't get in yet."
I've since tried a few other software solutions such as APR, 3Bar and Revo with no luch. The Revo guys plugged in and said the same thing as Superchip.
My question is does anyone out there know if there is a solution or do I need to wait till someone cracks the CPU firwall?
Thanks in advance for any help or advice, cheers.

Thanks to all those who responded to my querie. after reading I'm now confident that the usual tuning houses will eventually sort this out and upgrade then. I've since installed a K&M sports air filter and a larger turbo inlet elbow and hose, which has made a slight (positive) difference - didn't worry about the turbo exhaust delete...
Cheers guys

Anyone know where the ECU is located in a new MY21 Octvia?

Check under the bonnet next to the battery - thats where the ECU is located on the previous generation.
