Well I finally got round to flashing back to stock and sending the stock file to VF Engineering for a stage two tune. Process was smooth and had the file back in less than 48 hours.

VFE's stage two tune is awesome. Really enjoying it and it's smoother than the TTFS. I changed the tune as I didn't want to use the prehistoric handheld and also I can now go back to stock easily too.

Nope, not a dyno guy. The tune is much much better and smoother and it's a noticeable difference, two of my close friends did the VFE tune before I did even though I had it before them sitting at home for a year lol. They both loved it and kept pushing me so when I got a chance I just went ahead and did it. LOVE IT.

How much was the Stg 2 tune with VF?
Id wonder if they would do custom tunes with bigger upgrades, downpipes, M5 turbos, pistons, rods etc. Do you have a contact a VF that i could get connected to?

Just call them. I don’t remember as it was a few years back.
