Make your Golf more enjoyable to drive

A more willing response makes the everyday drive in your Golf more enjoyable. Our Volkswagen Golf GTI and Golf R ECU remap for 2013-2019 focuses on usable performance, with vehicle-specific diagnostics guiding the custom calibration.

Your car data guides the tune

Tell us about your fitted parts, intended fuel and the response you would like from the engine. We use that information with the diagnostic data to develop the calibration for your own GTI or Golf R, paying attention to how it feels in everyday use.

We check diagnostics before, during and after tuning, so adjustments are informed by how your car is running on its fuel and fitted parts. Remote tuning uses the device to read the data and apply the calibration, with our guidance. Choose Custom Dyno Tune if you prefer an in-person session.

Our custom tunes include up to four revisions in the first 30 days, followed by log reviews at 3, 6 and 12 months. Your feedback helps us refine the calibration and check how your vehicle is running after you have had time to use it.

Physical upgrades for your vehicle

We also offer physical upgrades for most vehicles.

Replacing your intake hose

For a Mk7 Golf GTI or Golf R with the 2.0 TSI, our Ramair RIP-007 silicone intake pipe replaces the standard intake hose and comes in black, blue or red. If you are changing the intake alongside your tune, tell us the complete setup so the calibration reflects what is fitted.

The pipe is an optional separate purchase, and this recommendation is specifically for the Mk7 2.0 TSI application.

If you're looking to take yours further, tell us what you have in mind. We can help you choose suitable parts and plan the tuning around them.

Custom Dyno Tune In-person custom calibration on the car hub dyno, with controlled-load testing and vehicle data guiding the work.

How remote tuning works

With remote tuning, we can work with you without a trip to the dyno. First, we confirm support for your vehicle and check its fitted hardware and the fuel you plan to use. We then guide you through reading and loading the calibration with the device. Send us the requested logs and your feedback so we can check the response and refine the tune.

Tune and Tuning Device includes the tuning device, required licence and delivery. You keep the device. Choose Tune Only when you already own compatible equipment.

Collect any requested data in a suitable, safe and lawful setting, following the tuner instructions. If a reading or a running concern needs attention, tell us before continuing so it can be assessed.

Your dyno session

Choose Custom Dyno Tune for an in-person session on the hub dyno. We use controlled-load measurements and live data to check the response as we adjust the calibration, with your own vehicle and fitted parts present throughout.

Get ready for your tune

Have any warning lights, misfires or running faults addressed before tuning. Tell us the fitted parts and intended fuel, then use that agreed fuel during calibration and afterwards. Speak to us before later hardware or fuel changes that affect the tune; further calibration may be needed.

Tuning is a vehicle modification and can affect warranty cover. Discuss it with your insurer and warranty provider before the work.

Support after your custom tune

Once you have had a chance to use your vehicle, tell us how it feels. Our custom tunes include up to four revisions within 30 days, plus log reviews at 3, 6 and 12 months to check how everything is running.

Talk to us about your tune

Tell us about your Volkswagen Golf GTI / Golf R, its fitted parts and what you would like from it. Get in touch with us and we will help you choose the right tuning route.

Frequently asked questions

Are horsepower or torque gains guaranteed?

No fixed power or torque figure is promised. Your Golf's condition, fuel, hardware, temperatures, logs and the tuning method affect the result.

Do I need to visit the workshop?

Choose Tune and Tuning Device for the guided remote process, or Tune Only if you already own compatible equipment. Custom Dyno Tune is available if you prefer the car to be tuned in person.

What if I change parts after tuning?

Tell us before fitting parts that affect engine operation or fuelling. The calibration was developed for the current combination, so further tuning may be needed.

What support is included after the custom tune?

Up to four revisions within 30 days, followed by log reviews at 3, 6 and 12 months to check how everything is running.

Will it affect my warranty?

It can. Treat the tune as a vehicle modification and discuss cover with your warranty provider and insurer before the work.

Delivery, customs and taxes
