Hi,
anyone heard about DNA Tuning? http://www.dnatuning.com/
they are offering stage 1 and custom maps for our cars
please, if anyone tried them or know anything, let me know
-
Never heard of them. Would want to see some dyno logs though!
-
me too...i read some good feedback about a guy called John in DNA
but wanted to know if anyone in the forum tried them...because someone offered me a custom map from them so i need to be sure before taking this step
-
Contact them and as them if they can send you some dyno logs. I'm sure that they have some.
-
I have a DNA remap! :happy2: I will be going to the Superchips RR Day if you want to see what figures I get! :wink:
-
Look a bit pricey.
Custom Tuning do a good job though !!!

actually i have bluefin but i'm facing alot of problems with stage 2..contacted Superchips but seems they are not able to do anything about it. a friend told me about the custom map from dna
what do you think about it? do you have stage 1 or custom map?

I have Stage 2. John is a good friend of mine, he has remapped my previous Beetle Cab 1.8T and my misses 1.9TDI Beetle. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend him, he has a wealth of knowledge. I am looking forward to seeing what results I get on the RR, not taht it really matters on the figures, it goes like stink so thats all that matters to me!
-
thats whats making me hesitated...i read a lot of good reviews on dna and John but all of them were mkiv and beetles
so i'm not sure if they have enough experience with mkv and 2.0T...I am concerned about reliability too not just having good figures on the RR and being fast
-
The decision is ultimately yours but i do know he regularly tunes the 2.0T, he doesnt just specialise in VAG either, I know he does all marques. Im not going to try and sell him to you im just speaking from my experience of him. Good luck in whatever you choose! :happy2:
-
just let me know when you get your car on the RR :wink:

What colour was your Cab? did you frequent the EVVO forum by any chance ?
-

I certainly did my friend, it was silver!
Well my car stood up well with the rest of the cars today and pulled 276BHP on there rollers, I dont believe thats what its true figure is but it was similar to other Stage 2 GTI's, im happy non the less!

Ah, I had the Cyber Green 1.8t cab decked on coilovers (Low-With-Go), went to quite a few meets with Anton (Blue Smoothie), Think we might have met at one of them.

Ahhh yeah I remember you, I bought your old coilovers for my Cab! I think the last I heard of you was you had an Octavia VRS. Hows things going?
