HPA have competition...


EDIT - Forgot to add, with GIAC being availible in the UK and this software being delivered using the same software as the engine remaps, hopefully this means we finally have an option here in the UK that doesnt require the removal of the MCU and posting to the US. Bring it on. I wonder if it's diesel compatible?

Anyone considering this, its well worth waiting a few weeks longer..

I had a feeling you might show up pretty sharpish Jonny. I don't even have a DSG car yet, just keeping up-to-date on my future tuning options and this is a biggie for me - tweaking the DSG to perform better.

I await news on what ever it is that you have information on. Are you able to share anything more than 'sit tight...'?
