Just a heads up IN CASE anyone plans on purchasing a GRAMS throttle body for their 2012 newer 2.0 tsi turbo beetles.
IF you run an APR tune. By putting the grams TB on, your HP/TQ will be cut dramatically. Other tunes may be adaptable, but APR, unless
you live in /near Alabama, would have to do a custom tune just to make this TB work.
And, FYI, Grams, is NOT the easiest company to deal with. Just sayin.

I purchased their TB, (stock ones are 57 mm, theirs are 70mm), and look good enough to put on a shelf, and just look at. A piece of art. BUT.
Once installed, and driven, the power was WAY down. Took it off after about a 15 miles test drive. Got a hold of Grams. They'd never heard of that??????????
Called my tuner. They knew INSTANTLY what was going on.
Bottom line, yanked it off car, shipped it back the next day, and now STILL waiting for a refund.
Not a happy camper. I've got OTHER parts to buy for my bug.

 

First posts normally go in introductions else you could get a free fix and we never see you again!!!

Finally received my refund from Grams.
Went and purchased CTS turbo's pcv catch can setup.
Absolutely beautiful piece of work.
Have to leave the engine cover off, JUST to show it off.
Highly recommended company/mod.
