Default Just got a VAG-COM

Finally got my hands on a VAG-COM. Of course, I want to try Lemmiwinks and Unisettings. I've read all I could find on this forum regarding these two. But what "performance" adjustments can I do, as it is already set to 100%? Maybe change timing? (what would be a good number?)

No - don't wanna do this. Wanna play it rather safe, that's why I ask here.

not to say there aren't knowledgable folks here, but VWVortex is frequented by more folks, and more knowledgable folks too. wouldn't be a bad place to check out too. basically cast a wider net.

I think the best advice is to follow the stock tuning guide on the 1.8T technical forum on vortex. I linked to it earlier in this thread.

Well I have looked at vwvortex. There is alot of info about lemmiwinks and unisettings. Though there are no directions of what actually will increase performace. I'll try to look further there. Thanks!

you do realize you might actually have to use tools and get your hands dirty to mod your engine right?
