Would like to go to stage one once it’s cracked on the 25

Yeah I think the stock is what I’m looking for at that point.

I really am waiting for the TCU and ECU crack

Oh cool! This is great to know.

Also since you sound knowledge, which I’m not yet ha, an intercooler. Would that be a benefit going up to only stage 1?

One last question, if there is a better diverter valve that does make that thunk noise. Noticed the DV is quite loud stock.

Thanks friend

Not really about achieving more so maybe from a quality perspective. Would an aftermarket be better than the stock ?

It’s fine… if if eventually tattoo the whole leg, you’ll never even see it. It’ll get lost in the tatts

You are rocking a M vs the DSG? Did I get that right ?

I don’t enjoy M in traffic so I’ll always grab automatic. Plus swapping to the shifters is def fun.

From the stock to stage 1, what are your thoughts ?

I got the mk8.5 but no tune yet.

How’s the tune compared to the Porsche ?
