At 13,500 miles now and its had ZERO issues, drives just like new. The stock pirelli tires will last to 20K miles if im lucky they are very soft but excellent tires.

I was getting 40 MPG highway easy with cruise control on and 87 pump gas.

Last weekend I went and had it tuned to APR 93 octane Stage 1. +70 HP and + 110 ft/lbs. this thing is a rocket now (nearly 300 pound feet of torque!) ! nearly a flat 6 seconds 0-60 which is insane for a Jetta and will run with V6 mustangs and other 300 HP V6 cars all day long.

MPG now seems to 35-36 so I took a hit on that but so worth it for the performance.
Id love to see what that tune dynos. I have only seen APR's results.

I have been wanting to grab the APR tune as well as intake. Just to have some more pep..

Wish I had access to a dyno, if I ever get a chance to dyno it I will. 16K miles now and still running strong.

It pulls hard to 100 mph, pretty OK to 110 and power falls off at 120 but it still gaining slowly. Probably could hit 135-140 on a flat open road with adequate space. Turbo runs out of steam at those speeds but thankfully I dont ever need to go that fast.
