Yanno a lot of people go from VW to Toyota. I did too, but there was never any reliability issues, I just needed a truck. My '08 Jetta and '17 GTI were good cars. And despite the oil leaking 1.4T my gmas '16 Jetta is pretty good too.
The DSG was actually a better unit if you wanted to tune a MK7 GTI. Even a Stage 1 APR tune on a 6 speed manual GTI you'd wind up burning the clutch. Yes, you can get a better clutch, but for out of the box DSG was a winner.
Yep. Had both engine and DSG tunes with FBO on my sadly departed GTI. Pushed nearly 400WHP on E30 thru that box for nearly 50K miles without a whimper. And I was NOT kind with it. Solid trans for certain.
