APR ECU remap impressions on my Golf MK6 TDI
Recently hit 300,000km and as a milestone present it got an ECU tune. Absolutely stoked with it, and I wish I'd done it earlier!
Way more immediate torque at the lower end of the rev range, and a lot more power higher up in the rev range where previously it would fall off. It put a massive smile on my face. On 235 wide Michelin PS5's and it can lose traction all the way through second gear now.
Other mods include Bilstein B16 coilovers, Whiteline front/rear sway bars, end links, ball joints, a Racingline air intake for some extra woosh, and a short shifter kit.
It's tons of fun now. I think a limited slip diff would make a world of difference but realistically that would cost me more than the whole car is worth.
