VW Golf GTI Mk7 Mods and Tuning Solutions

Enhance your Mk7 Volkswagen Golf GTI with our range of remaps and supporting hardware available at VUDU Performance.

The Volkswagen Golf GTI is almost unrecognizable from the original 1976 Golf model. Fast forward almost half a century later and the Mk7 GTI model is now the definition of a hot hatchback with the subtle styling and consistent performance providing a real German icon.

The bigger brother to the popular VW Polo GTI model, the Golf is a quality and all-around professional piece of kit designed to provide an exciting driving experience to match up against some of the biggest players in the performance world.

Drifting around the £20,000 mark for a second-hand model, it's easy to see why we are seeing a high influx of younger generation drivers picking these up, ready to dive into the world of Golf GTI tuning. This model certainly packs a punch and provides a healthy 227bhp at standard, but at VUDU Performance our team of expert technicians can always find room for improvement.

VW Golf GTI Remap Software

Our research and development in the Ford industry speaks for itself, it was only natural for us to expand our work into the Volkswagen tuning world with our range of VUDU remapping software and performance-enhancing tuning hardware.

Working alongside some of the very best software developers in the world, VUDU Performance help provide that superior driving experience, even on the simplest stage 1 upgrade, to completely transform that 2.0TSI engine, whether that be the manual or DSG model.

Owners of the Mk7 and Mk7.5 GTI models should seriously consider a remap in order to obtain the full VUDU Performance experience. You can even flash the VUDU software from the comfort of your home with the use of the VUDU Remap Software Tuning Tool.

Expect power gains of up to 35% with VUDU Stage 1 figures taking this hot hatch to 310bhp!

These figures will heavily depend on the condition of the vehicle and the supporting hardware the car is running. To achieve the best results from the Stage 1 Remap, we strongly recommend fitting an intake system with Racingline Performance providing the greatest value for money alongside a muffler delete and an intercooler.

At VUDU Performance we offer a range of muffler deletes with Racingline and APR becoming increasingly popular choices. Intercooler-wise, the AIRTEC option provides a significant cooling solution to allow the stage 1 file to perform at its maximum while providing you with a healthy peace of mind that the car will not overheat.

All VUDU Performance software has been intensely developed on our very own wheel hub dyno to ensure 100% customer satisfaction and reliability. Dyno runs are included in the price when you select the flashed at VUDU Performance option on the individual product page but should you wish to test the maximum output of your car without an engine flash then prices start from just £78. All dyno runs come with a printout so that you can see the new maximum output of the vehicle alongside the standard figures.

We are often asked about the fuel economy when it comes to remapping a vehicle. You should expect a slight dip as you enjoy the first few weeks with that increased power reaching the top speeds far quicker. However, once you settle back into your normal driving pattern, you should expect the fuel economy to balance out to a normal standard.

Take a look at the Golf GTI stage 1 remap package on the VUDU Performance website, prices start from £449 for the remap software alone. Please note all our remap softwares are designed to run 99 octane fuel.
