MK4 STAGE 2 ECU TUNE

Experience the thrill of unparalleled performance with Boost Dynamic Tuning’s Stage 2 ECU calibration, expertly engineered to deliver up to 265 Wheel HP and 285 Wheel TQ — without compromising drivability or reliability. Our calibration safely and effectively unlocks the full potential of your factory turbocharger.

AWARD WINNING 2 STEP!

Rowdy, fireball-spitting, true anti-lag vibes. If you want chest-thumping 2-step, this is it.

CRACKLE POPS

Also called overrun. Lift at higher RPM or free-rev in neutral/park and you’ll hear spicy crackles and pops (quieter on stock exhaust).

BOOST CONTROL 

Factory boost can feel bumpy and lazy on long pulls. BDT Stage 2 smooths the curve and sharpens response so it surges cleanly through the powerband.

Immobilizer Delete

If you’re running a plug-and-play ECU, we can provide an immo-off option so your car starts without PIN matching between modules.

    Totally Different Car

    Posted by Ryan on Dec 26th 2023

    The test drive after the install, I was smiling ear to ear the whole time. Walked back into house and my wife was like “you just put that new ECU thing in your car didn’t you? There’s no other reason you’d be smiling that much”. Throttle response is great, and so much more power with the stage 2. I’m super pleased with these guys’ work. It woke the GTI up and made it a completely different car.

    Stage 2

    Posted by Matt Vaughan on Jan 29th 2023

    I really like this plug play unit. I really wish there was a specific place that was labeled for the crackles and pops. The default one is intense which is a little intense for me lol. I wish I could have gone with the medium. But I like it and it really woke this car up. I would recommend

    Awesome tune! Extremely happy!

    Posted by Roberto molina on Mar 7th 2019

    I was thw fence at first but boy am i glad i got this tune. Ive owned the car for 2 years and drive it 40 miles EVERY day and it has never drove this smooth and civilized, until i hit the gas that is. It absolutely blew me away just how much power the car has, its very surprising. I am extremely satisfied and highly recommend. Oh, and the 2-step is nuts too! Trent took care of any questions i had and answered my messages promptly. Again, highly recommend.
