Right now, I don't have any plans on changing the ECU. It seems to have all the bugs worked out of it.

Thank you

No E85 for me, too much trouble for what I want out of this car. Right now, it made 501whp @ 20psi on C16. I want to add water injection and retune for 20-22 psi and be done with it. For me, 435whp is a handful on the street.

Why retune and add water injection if 435whp is too much on the street?
Your already at 501whp....
I say enjoy it for a while so you don't go and sell her like you have with the previous one...

Just my .002

Yea he said it made 501 on c16. I assume he just wants to re tune with WI so he can be on pump.

I want water injection for safety. Since I need a retune, I'll want a low boost (15psi) and a high boost (20 psi) tune. I vowed to never pay for VP C16 again. The price/pain of draining and refilling tanks is not for me.

Trust me, I'm enjoying her!

I'm content with knowing I won't be the fastest

Yeah, I don't see many people with these Volks. I personally would love some deep dish wheels. Maybe in the future.
