Hi all.
I am picking-up my R32 this Tuesday and just wanted to ask your opinions when it comes to giving her the all important chip treatment.
My ownership of GTI's go's back a number of years, and I have narrowed my choice down to West Tuning at Thruxton, or AMD at Bicester. Which do yo recommend?
Thanks for the brain power.

hey man start your own thread j/k the fastest way to make power is a boost controller on your 1.8t

yeah but 2 have a Boost controller u need a BOV 4 all that compression.dont wantur engine 2 take a shyt on u!

but 1.8 is 2 thumbs up.but that just me
haha not the engine thats gonna dump first,
compression surge will destroy the turbo
before you get a chance to hurt the engine.

im not a boost expert but i know a thing or 2...bout it ma car doesnt have a BOV yet...
You need a BOV for high boost. Find some mags or
do a search on compression surge. This evil surge
happens between the throttle body and the turbo
in the intake pipe. It's nasty and will severely damage
a turbo.
ps. dont' drop big bills on BOV's, higher prices is for
simply noise.
