    I think your only options in town are apr(concept1) revo(caw) and uni(tunedub?)

    Pretty sure that whatever one you go with will be fine. Just depends how aggressive the tuning company is. I find that revo have pretty aggressive tunes, apr in the middle, and unit tonic being somewhat conservative.

    Although I have heard some people have had issues with revo (the tune itself and customer service)

      It really depends on which platform you are talking about Danny. Unitronic is the most aggressive of those listed on a 1.8t engine.
      Any of the three would probably do the job just fine though

        Ya I guess I'm just talking about what I've heard. Good point Sean. Didn't know about that.

            Tunerworks does GIAC, that's what I have. Just looked on APR and Uni, but they haven't released their tunes yet for the Gen3 2.0T yet

              ^I was gonna say I doubt everyone has a tune out for the mk7 already. I have had a GIAC, a Revo and two Unitronic tunes (all 1.8T) and I've liked the GIAC and Unitronics the best.

                  APR just released their Stage 1 tune for the Gen 3 2.0T. These kinds of gains will only be slightly noticeable...
