Stage 1 will give you more driving pleasure but may have an insurance premium attached.

RNS510 will make it easier to use GPS instead of a separate unit.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Without a shadow of doubt, a decent stage 1 map. :smiley:  It just brings the GTI alive, much more torque, which makes it a really great drive.

I'm surprised there are so many rns510 votes.

Expensive bit of kit that isn't all that compared to other solutions IMO.

Another vote for remap.

After remap, downpipe and stage 2 update.

as i mentioned in the other thread, i think RNS will have a greater effect on your day-to-day enjoyability in terms of the added functionality. once you start to get a little comfortable (read: bored) with the car, then i think a remap should quickly be on the agenda.

also, as an OE solution i think RNS510 is absolutely cracking. wish Audis had something similar instead of the RNS-E tat
