I got stage 2 on my 2016 GTI and it’s been great. Love the power but love the overrun crackle file more. The UniConnect+ cable came in handy as well when my old downpipe broke and I had to flash back to stage 1+ without having to go to some tuner and did it right in a garage on my laptop.
Support is also great too; emails usually get replied to the next business day. I appreciate that they have a dedicated customer service and experts that I can call rather than just a tuner who’d reply at their own convenience. In addition, them having an actual brick and motor headquarters makes me feel more comfortable and trusting the reputation of the company
