I have pulled the bluefin off my edition 30, what an absolute rubbish tune. really confuses the damn out of the DSG box too..

Hmm that's interesting feedback, so far all i've heard was how good it was for daily driving.  :-\

looks great mate!! defs recommend the h&r kit. i went for the super sports and they handle well, a bit stiff but great for aggressive driving. Need to do stage 1 on my car soon too, but in no rush - think I'm going to go with Revo.

waiting on some parts first then will be posting some pics of my mk6

Was going to wait till I sorted new wheels but here is the car anyways with some photos I took quickly last night.             
 

2011 MK6 GTI DSG
Candy white
My factory options include
factory tints, tyre pressure monitor, heated dimming and folding mirrors, auto wipers, puddle lights, auto lights and moving xenon headlights

The only mods Iv done are the rear LED number plate lights, front plate recess delete, H&R super sports springs, Remus back box and resonator delete and tinted the front spot lights yellow.
Wheels and a tune are next on the cards.

Absolutely crapty tune. made the car faster for sure. but deliver power like a bag of balls, and seriously confuse the DSG box which drives perfectly fine and smoothly on the stock map, but I suppose I am picky. most Tune customers would probably just enjoy the Turbo rush feeling and not notice the excessive Spike in the boost curve and the very quiet pinking..

Thank f*ck I didn't have to fork out the exorbitant amount pile of hand held rubbish.

Car looks great Lee!

Thanks for the feedback Anton, good to hear not just the positive news about the product. Could it be the tune was for a standard GTI instead of a ED30?

This is my 2010 Mk6 GTI.
It's Candy White like the ones above and is DSG.

Fully stock and have yet to put a list together of mods.
