Hey all,
so a moron dealer is telling me my new Golf R is tuned because it runs more than 0PSI in first gear lol.  One other person has said the car should run lower boost in first gear (regulated by the ECU).  As far as i know, there is no provision for gear-by-gear load regulation in MED9.1.  Can anyone verify this?  I'm confident this dealer is full of shit, but It would be nice to have all the info I can.

Just FYI - the car runs exactly 15psi in pretty much every gear -- Doesn't seem like a tuned car to me....

I agree.  I'm yet to get an entirely clear answer on that.  VW corporate didn't even know what that was, but they said nothign was on file like that.  I called another dealer, who didn't knwo what that was, and said they didn't see anything like that on file for the car.  I think i'm good.  I had VW corporate put some of this in writing also.

FWIW, i also found a Youtube video comparing a stock tune with APR stage 1 with a boost gauge installed inteh car. The car clearly runs and holds 15psi+ of boost in first gear.  Frustrating dealign with moron dealers.
