Will there be any future updates to your K04 tune? I understand that there's a new CTS K04-X turbo that's gaining a lot of good press and I'd like to have an APR tune to match that turbo's power needs. Loving your Stage 1 ECU and your TCU tunes thus far!
That is a hybrid turbo and as far as I know, no tuner has OTS tunes for a hybrid turbo, you have to go custom tuning route to take advantage of it.

We don't have any plans to refine our K04 tune. It's solid.
Gotcha. Thanks for the reply.

Ah okay. I'll stick with APR and get the non-X CTS K04.

I have your down pipe from 2012. If I needed a new 200 cell cat to replace mine does APR sell them or could I just add any 200 cell cat that would fit?

The RSC exhaust was actually made by Corsa, who still sells the downpipe if I'm not mistaken.
APR's in house downpipes were cast, not welded.

Thank you, I'll check them out.

APR Iridium Pro Spark Plugs are Here!



APR Iridium Pro Spark Plugs are the excellent upgrade for tuned engines. Our spark plugs are made from Iridium, which is one of the strongest materials you can use in this type of application. They run cooler, resist preignition, last longer than other materials with higher melting points, and even require less voltage to produce a strong spark. The electrode is harder and stronger than other materials, can dissipate heat more easily, is better protected from melting, cracking, and other limitations found with standard plugs. These plugs were designed for use on tuned and higher output vehicles that benefit from a plug cooler than the factory heat range. They are great for high boost, high cylinder pressure, high cylinder temperatures, and high power situations, and they pair nicely with a set of APR ignition coils, where applicable.

Features and Specs

  • Iridium alloy electrode tip
  • Heat range 9 spark plug (Similar: Bosch 3, Brisk 10, Denso 27, and NGK 9)
  • 152% higher melting point than silver, 125% higher than copper, and 38% higher than platinum.
  • Stronger than copper and platinum
  • Designed for high performance / tuned vehicle applications
  • Non-projected insulator design (Z1003100)
  • Projected insulator design (Z1003101)
  • Lower required supplied voltage
  • Cooler operating temperature than stock plugs
  • Optimized electrode design for hard to ignite fuels, such as ethanol
  • Resists preignition better than stock plugs
  • Perfect for upgraded APR vehicles
  • An excellent match for APR ignition coils
  • Thread reach: 26.5mm (Z1003100)
  • Thread reach: 26.5mm (Z1003101)
  • Thread diameter: 14mm
  • Hexagon: 16mm
  • Seat Type: Gasket
  • Install Torque: 25 Nm
  • Made in the EU

The APR Throttle Booster instantly transforms the way your vehicle feels by customizing how quicky your throttle or accelerator pedal works. Simply plug it in and either use the wireless controller or smart phone app to set or customize how the pedal feels. Most people don't like the way their throttle pedal feels, and while tuning can help eliminate lag, everyone has a different opinion about how it should feel. This device lets you set it exactly the way you want and allows you to quickly switch between profiles. Set it to stock, sport modes, extreme modes, and eco modes with ease. Best of all, it's a quick plug and play device that can be removed at any time.

Features:

  • Improves throttle response and transforms the feel of the vehicle
  • Multiple switchable profiles including various sport modes, eco modes, and custom maps
  • Custom throttle mapping allows you to perfectly tune your throttle pedal
  • Thin and classy wireless controller
  • Bluetooth iOS and Android mobile app
  • No clunky boxes, wires, or controllers like other devices
  • Quick and easy plug-and-play design that is removable without a trace
  • Works on gas, diesel, alternative fuel, and electric vehicles
  • 30-day money back guarantee

Question about your K04 tune... I assume it has been adjusted to be in line with the recent EPA pressure? So if I were to use an APR tune on a K04 it'll play nice with the stock downpipe and throw a CEL if I run an aftermarket cat of insufficient quality? I presume it would make less horsepower, and I can live with that, but I want to be sure what the APR software upgrade path looks like before I buy in.

Hi Arin. My understanding is that the APR intake products for MK6 GTI have been pending CARB-approval for a while. Do you think there's a possibility that they will be approved in the near future?

APR High-Flow Direct-Replacement Intake Filters are Here!



Product Page

APR High Flow Intake Filters are a direct upgrade to your factory intake system! Typically your engine is equipped with a cheap, mass-produced and restrictive paper filter system that must be replaced several times in the life of the vehicle. The APR Filter uses a proprietary, high-flow, cotton-gauze filtration material that is washable and will likely outlive the vehicle itself! The filtration material was flow-bench optimized to provide maximum performance while also providing excellent filtration that will keep your engine running clean for hundreds of thousands of miles with normal maintenance. With multiple decades of creating and selling high-flow filters for hundreds of thousands of vehicles with our upgraded intake systems, we're confident our line of drop-in filters will be an excellent upgrade for our budget-minded consumers!

In many cases, upgrading the intake system to an APR intake system is the best route to take for maximum performance, but that's not always possible for all vehicles and every budget. That's where our direct replacement filters shine. This is the easiest upgrade you can make to your factory intake system to maximize performance. The filter flows more than stock and has less pressure drop at the same flow rate, which means the engine doesn't need to work as hard to make the same, or more power.

Our drop-in filters are made for all engine types including gas, diesel, ethanol, or other fuels, and naturally aspirated, turbocharged, supercharged, and other hybrid configurations! In every scenario, our filter maximizes performance of the factory intake system. Expect sharper throttle response, a little more sound, and on turbocharged engines, less strain on the turbo with a reduction in turbo lag.

Features and Benefits

  • Maximizes engine performance
  • Flows more than stock
  • Lower pressure drop than stock at every flow rate
  • Sharpens response (Turbo/Throttle)
  • High-flow, proprietary cotton-gauze material
  • Washable and reusable for the life of the engine
  • Slightly enhances engine sound
  • Flow-bench optimized design
  • Works at any stage of performance
  • Compatible with the factory intake system
  • Decades of success designing high-flow filters for high performance applications
  • Does not negatively impact emissions

Please note, the application guide is based on US models only, but these filters fit a vast amount of vehicles in the ROW. If you are outside the USA, choose a model close and cross reference the OEM filters listed on the product page to ensure it fit!
