the car is tuned to its true potential. Our Stage 1 Volkswagen tuning package for the VW GOLF GTI MK7 (5G1) 2013-2017 delivers impressive power gains, boosting power output as much as<strong> 35% over stock.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stage 1 tuning of a car refers to a set of modifications that enhance the vehicle&#8217;s performance, typically without requiring significant changes to its internal components or a lot of downtime. It gains a noticeable increase in power and driving experience without going overboard with complex upgrades.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here&#8217;s a breakdown of what the MRC Stage 1 Package for the VW GOLF GTI MK7 (5G1) 2013-2017 includes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>In-house developed MRC ECU Stage 1 Remap<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">The most common part of Stage 1 tuning is adjusting the car\u2019s Engine Control Unit (ECU), which governs the performance parameter settings like air-fuel mixture, ignition timing, and boost levels. This Stage 1 remap is the culmination of months of dedicated work by our highly skilled engineers at MRC Tuning working on a bespoke tune that will optimize these settings to increase power output, torque, and fuel efficiency without requiring any mechanical changes. This is the most cost-effective and non-invasive method to improve performance whilst staying extremely safe but usually producing more power and torque than our competitors whilst maintaining a safer tune.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>TCU Gearbox Tune<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Tuning a\u00a0<strong data-start=\"9\" data-end=\"44\">Transmission Control Unit (TCU)<\/strong>\u00a0refers to modifying the software that controls the automatic transmission in a vehicle.

that you can feel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here&#8217;s a breakdown of what the MRC Stage 2 Package for the VW GOLF GTI MK7 (5G1) 2013-2017 includes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>In-house developed MRC

fusion-text-6\"><p>Stage 3 tuning of a car refers to hardware adjustments like larger turbochargers, intercoolers, downpipes, upgraded injectors, fuel pump\/rail and intake modifications. <strong>Stage 2 to Stage 3<\/strong> usually boosts power <strong>output by 25%<\/strong> due to the larger turbo which is a noticeable improvement over Stage 2. To put it in perspective <strong>Stage 3 boosts the power of the VW GOLF GTI MK7 (5G1) 2013-2017 upto 100%+ over stock figures.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Here&#8217;s a breakdown of what the MRC Stage 3 Package for the VW GOLF GTI MK7 (5G1) 2013-2017 includes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>In-house developed MRC ECU Stage 3 Remap<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Building on the Stage 2 tuning package of the ECU this Stage 3 remap will take advantage of the extra hardware upgrades with a more bespoke tune that will optimize the power output and torque whilst staying as safe as possible.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>TCU Gearbox Tune<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Tuning a\u00a0<strong data-start=\"9\" data-end=\"44\">Transmission Control Unit (TCU)<\/strong>\u00a0refers to modifying the software that controls the automatic transmission in a vehicle. The TCU is responsible for shifting gears, controlling torque delivery, and optimizing the performance of the transmission. Just like with engine tuning (ECU), TCU tuning can enhance driving dynamics, performance, and efficiency.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Upgraded Turbocharger<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Fitting a larger turbocharger work better at higher engine speeds (RPM). This is because the larger turbine and compressor are designed to flow more air at high speeds, and they can sustain higher levels of boost without getting overwhelmed. We have chosen a balanced turbocharger for this package that gives optimum driveability with maximum power levels.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Upgraded Air filter<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Upgrading to a high-flow air filter helps the engine get more air which is essential at Stage 2, leading to better combustion and more power.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Upgraded Intake Pipe<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Turbo Technics Large bore silicone intake hose with billet aluminium turbo adapter fits the 2 litre turbo engines used in the latest MQB Platform vehicles. Not only does this improve the looks of the engine bay, but is also proven to improve performance by getting rid of the restrictive plastic turbo elbow and increasing airflow aswell as providing a more improved throttle response when accelerating.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Downpipe and Race Exhaust<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Fitting upgraded downpipes provide greater increases in horsepower and torque on turbocharged vehicles by allowing exhaust gasses to flow easier as they leave the upgraded turbo.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Upgraded Fuel pump<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">More boost requires more fueling so the fuel pump will be upgraded to cope with the extra flow needed.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Upgraded Intercooler<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Fitting a larger and more efficient intercooler helps maintain lower intake temperatures, preventing heat-induced power loss and ensuring consistent performance and will cope with the extra stresses of the new turbocharger.<\/p>\n<p><strong>STAGE 3 is at your own risk. We will map the car to be as safe and powerful as it can be but increasing the power and torque <\/strong><strong>so far beyond the factory specification means it will need appropriately reduced service intervals and maintenance.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Booking information<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>We would require a deposit of
