Mountune52, the VAG division of Mountune, has developed what it claims is its most advanced power upgrade yet for the Mk7 & 7.5 Golf GTI. The STAGE 2+ calibration provides an increase to both power and torque, whilst retaining the OEM features that have seen the GTI become one of the most popular hot hatches in history. Mountune52’s expert team of engineers has put the STAGE 2+ upgrade through a rigorous testing and development process over thousands of miles.

The GTI’s peak power has been increased to 385 PS with torque increased to 510 Nm – an increase of 75 PS and 35 Nm from the Stage 1 upgrade package, reducing the 0-60 time to 5.2 seconds. With a stock Mk7 & 7.5 GTI producing 220 PS and 350 Nm, the STAGE 2+ unlocks 70% more power.

Through the use of the mTune handset, users can decide if they want more performance, changing their calibration in a matter of minutes. An uprated clutch, also available through mountune52, allows users to make the most of the new calibration but all modes can be used regardless of whether the clutch has been upgraded or not. New to the mountune52 STAGE 2+ upgrade package, a TCU DSG calibration upgrade is also available for those with a DSG transmission.

Customers can either choose to fit the package from the comfort of their own home or have it fitted by one of mountune52’s expert engineers at mountune HQ in Hutton, Essex. Those opting for fitting by a mountune52 professional are also entitled to an oil and filter service.
