Stage 1 & 2 + Crackle map
This is hands down probably the best thing I’ve ever spent my money on besides buying the XR5 in the first place. Currently running the Stage 1 tune with Intake, Downpipe and De-Cat and the difference is there the minute you take off in first gear. More power, more torque, more noise and just overall more responsive. The car now has a smooth power delivery. It literally changed the car completely, unlocking it’s true potential you could say. The car is noticeably better on fuel when not giving it the boot but power is definitely there when you need it. And this is only stage 1 (facepalm). Once the Intercooler and blockmod are done I will switch to stage 2. (Not recommended for cars without upgraded cooler). There will be about 24 hours between you sending Jamie the ECU read file and then getting the tunes emailed back. So don’t leave it till the last minute on a Friday night like I did haha. He was nice enough to email me the tunes on a Sunday! Legend. If you’re thinking about buying this tune don’t think, just do. So worth it.

Dreamscience vs OEM Denied
I’ve been running the dreamscience for a couple months now (Modx with a crackle map) and it was pretty good. Though a couple things I noticed: 1. It ran really really rich 2. Power delivery was a little rough I switched over to OEM Denied stage 2 tune a week ago and I’ve been amazed at the quality of the tune. Power delivery is extremely smooth and with my turboback; really good responsive and instant power Happy that I made the switch, so if you’re tossed up on which tune to get, go for OEM Denied! Not only will you save $$ but Jamie’s also prompt with replies to help you out. Crazy service!

Huge difference over stock
Heard good things about these tunes so I finally caved and boy does it make a difference. Only using the stage one with the only other mod being a cold air intake and the difference is definitely noticable. Boost comes on earlier, harder and for longer and it is definitely quicker. The intake is now also louder as an added benefit. Definitely a must buy!

JUST WOW!!!
I purchased this tune at the same time I purchased my new dump pipe and cat from Jamie for my Mk2 RS. I test drove the car with the new exhaust prior to adding the stage 2 tune and was impressed with the performance gain. However, after uploading the new tune, I was blown away. It has transformed the way the car drives and is now the angry performance machine this car was designed to be. I swore I would never modify this car, however its a decision I'm very glad I made as it has turned an awesome car into an absolutely incredible car to drive. Jamie, as usual, was a pleasure to deal with and delivery and instructions for this item are as good as the performance it adds to my car!!

Best performance tune ever
I ordered this awesome performance tune and the next day it was at my door so I am more then happy with that. Before I ordered this tune I was already running a bluefin tune. All I can say is the stage one for the oem denied is a better performing tune then the bluefin stage 3+ hands down. The install of the tune is so basic it took me about 10 minutes to fully do. But you have to allow 24hrs for them to send you the tune and in my case he did it within a few hours. Since I ordered the crackle map as well I've been having fun with that as well. I wouldn't recommend anything else

Real recognise real
Dont get it twisted, this dudes the TRUTH, using Jamie's stg1 tune the difference is amazing . The response & overall drive ability is next level you wont be disappointed. On top of a solid quality tune his willingness to help at anytime is a phone call away if you need it. Dont think , just add to cart n buy you'll be hella impressed with the A1 quality you get simple as that. Salute Jamie .

Amazing feeling power!
What an awesome tune! I am running Stage 3 with all the suggested supporting mods and what a difference it has made to the car! It sounds a bit louder, and pulls like crazy! It really feels like there is room for more power, she just wants to keep going! Thanks again Jamie, highly recommend!!!
