http://www.goapr.com/products/ecu_upgrade_14tsi_twin.htmlseems like apr got reflash for 1.4TSI engine for scirocco and claimed that they able to fool the TCM(traction control module) to un-limit the 250Nm torque barrier and result is 202HP and 317Nm torque Stage 1. From http://uk-mkivs.net/forums/t/290131.aspxThe APR representative mentioned on their findings, the 7 speed dry clutch gb can withstand over 500Nm of torque until the clutch packs started to wear out prematurely. So guys.. i think its safe to remap those 1.4TSI baby.. Any idea when the Scirocco 1.4 tsi up for test drive and launch?

QUOTE(mikelee @ Sep 12 2010, 02:03 AM) Talked to one of the SA, test drive should be available end of the month or early next month. Thanks! How about the official launching and bookings date?  hopefully more ppl can afford to own scirocco.. kinda hard to see one on the road nowadays..

QUOTE(mikelee @ Sep 12 2010, 12:14 PM) I think launching date should be around the same time with the time the car is able to be test driven. For the booking, you can actually do it now already. Yeah, I agree. This past few days spotted lots of GTIs around but not even a single Scirocco around town. It is rare indeed. bookings can refund right after test drive if i decided to cancel or something..

QUOTE(jwrx @ Dec 6 2010, 10:10 AM) phaser, im ryou in VGM. With regards to changing oil...if u are worried, just do it lor, theres no difinitive right or wrong, if it makes u feel better and sleep at night, i would suggest u do it VW's need more care then japs..just get into habit of checking your fluid levels, eg my roc is only one month old, noticed last nite that coolant is down to min level, need to go back and refill at VW For hills, i now drive old school way, pull hand brake, rev till theres resistance and let go how much to change the engine oil at VW SC? anhy other major problem u have with ur roc except the mic rubber ? stage 1 done?? hehe

QUOTE(jwrx @ Dec 6 2010, 03:21 PM) TSI vs GTI diffrent cars for diffrent ppl/needs. If you can afford the extra 1k-1.5k per month to get the GTI, by all means go for it...its still better value then a 320i with the GTI u get - slightly more street cred - ability to mod till 300bhp if u desire max power - nicer interior and ACC with the TSI u - save 55k....which to me..is a huge amount of money...can buy a extra Myvi for pasar duties, or used as downpayment in a few years for a Golf R - As much power as the stock GTi with a simple remap I got the TSI roc cos i just didnt feel that spending 245k on a 2.0 roc was worth it, couldn't bring myself to spend so much money well said then.. the diff 2.0 vs 1.4 is just huge.. rather spend more on down-payment. but i assume the tsi without the ACC is acceptable?

QUOTE(jwrx @ Dec 6 2010, 05:54 PM) I stopped selling the rns because of too many complaints about the gps( which was last updated 2007), if u need gps, get a garmin, it will serve u alot better then the rns Too many firmware issues, dodgy supply of rns etc, so I only do rcd510 now, alot esier and many happy users Added on December 6, 2010, 5:58 pmCW is the easiest to sell later on  black and cw is the most garang , just simple rims and kit and they look fantastic Csg easiest to maintain but it tends to get lost in the crowd not to mention rns510 dun have ipod interface.. which u can throw in a small ipod nano as hdd. u can have plenty of songs stored inside the car. Bro the climate control works fine with the rcd510 right?

QUOTE(Travies @ Dec 13 2010, 07:45 PM) yesterday i was crusing at 160km/h. suddenly a car from behind with HID use high beam to signal me. Sweat, it was a white volkwagen golf TSI. i recognise it is a TSI version due to the rear lamp. GTI type MK6 is diff. this car was running about 200km/h and overtake car like zigzag way. pretty cool. FYI golf tsi and golf gti share the same rear lamp. The one u mention diff is the Golf R LED rear lamp. i dun think golf R is selling here. unless SG car
