@ liver:

Don't get too focussed on the max bhp numbers. What matters more is driveability and reliability. Different rollers and operators deliver different numbers anyway.

liver:
thank you for your replys

im not too fussed about getting the top bhp figures im going with superchips so i already know i could get better figures with other tuners but i like the usage of the bluefin and the adaptability between that and stock.

im more bothered about the torque figure and how the clutch will cope with this

my car is on 51k and ive been running stage 1 for over a year,

performane mods are itg panel filter with a carbonio, will look to upgrde to gain better figures
3" Milltek non res tbe

bluefin makes around 250hp with the full TBE and intake on JKMs, so about 10Hp less and around 20ibft less than revo etc.  But like you say its still hugely quicker than stock, and more likely to preserve the clutch

^^^^
Wise man, liver, re the torque - It's what can kill engines. Don't get lazy with the gear shifts  :happy2: (I don't think you will)

vRSAlex:
As soon as i went revo stage 2+ the clutch started slipping.  I do have a slightly heavier car than a golf though.  The standard clutches dont have a strong enough clamping pressure.

I usually say to just take the chance.  Most of the time the clutch will last (unless you have an S3 as they can slip in standard form!)
