Testimonials

I truly cannot say enough about Malone Tuning. From start to finish, the customer service has been top-notch. This was my first time playing with tunes so you can imagine the endless help I needed. Customer service was friendly, knowledge, and patient. The tune itself has made a huge difference in my car. I was afraid I would barely notice a difference but that has not been the case at all. I will recommend Malone Tuning to everyone I know looking to tune their TDI.

I had my local VW/Audi shop who is a Malone tune dealer work with Malone on my 2000 Jetta TDI. Both the shop and Malone were very thorough in making sure my car was tuned correctly and safely. along with a 1749 VB, DBW 764 injectors, the tune was tailored to my car. the car is smoother and quieter when cruising now. fuel consumption is down (unless I'm horsing around) the response is better than stock in every gear. as well and most importantly to me, it is very clean. so far I have 500 miles one everything and wouldn't hesitate to do it again to any subsequent car I may have

Best of all was that the tune improved my MPGs and now I love my van even more. The power has been improved and my van "feels" smoother throughout the RPMs. I've driven about a thousand happy miles so far. Thanks Owain and Mark, the whole process was very smooth.

I can't begin to express my joy for the patience and help I have received. This is the Second time they have saved me from being stranded and not to mention being robbed by the dealership. Constant rapid contact with impeccable communication and professionalism is the bare minimum that describes the customer service I have received. I am not technologically/computer proficient, with that said I was walked through several issues and was easily able to accomplish my end goal. Thank you so much for everything!!!! I have told every VW owner I come in contact with to become very familiar with this company (ever since my first business experience).

<p> The stage 1 tune on my audi S4 was a major success. It has improved engine performance beginning with the smoothness of the engine which was totally unexpected given that the engine is already a legend as factory equipped. Smooth and increased performance is clearly apparent throughout the rpm range. Fuel consumption is improved as expected. This custom Malone has greatly exceeded my expectations. Congratulations to both Mark Malone and his team and Neil Nordquist at Saskatoon Import Auto. </p>

Have a stock ’15 Passat TDI (EA288) post dieselgate fix level II. Driving before I would tell myself, “this car was a grown up decision.” After tuning, the vehicle is how I remember my first Passat TDI; FUN! Runs as it should. Requested some specific operating characteristics to my tune was old hat to Malone & no problem at all (other tuners choked & failed). Malone also took out all the lame & stupid from my DSG transmission. These guys have my respect & confidence.

My 2013 Jetta Sportwagen 2.0 TDI stock needed a little more pep, with the AC on high. Little did I understand what Mark could do for my car. I used the FlashZilla to tune the engine to stage 2 while I waited for the Kess to show up for the DSG, and wow did I notice a difference. But that wasn't the greatest part, once the DSG was tuned. I noticed how smooth DSG shifted, and how much better the takeoff was. If the DSG wasn't telling me what gear it was in, I wouldn't have had a clue. My DSG did have an issue with the down shift from 6th to 5th, so I emailed Mark, and told him what it was doing, he sent me the modification, I uploaded to DSG, and WOW. I have a NEW car. Best purchase I've made in a while. Thanks Mark and crew.

The stage 2 tune for my M57 335d is mind-blowing. I haven't put it on a dyno yet, but it certainly feels like it's putting ~330hp/~520'lbtq to the wheels. Heck, likely more with the methanol system. Effortless flashing process w/ a local vendor (Cascade German Parts) and no post-flash SES or CEL lights. I couldn't ask for more.

Absolutely amazing support. I purchased a tune from them 3 maybe 4 years ago. My vehicle was part of the Audi/VW emissions scandal and had to go in for a modification. I sent an email asking a question and the response was almost immediate. After the modification the old tune would no longer load. I sent an email with the old tune and new file and they sent me an update to the tune same day. I highly recommend them!

The tuning process was seemless. I ordered the Flashzilla V3 Friday and had it by Monday. Instructions are pretty straightforward and I emailed my original file to Owain around 11am. I got my Stage 2 file around 4pm and after that it was plug and play. The difference is night and day. My 2015 VW GSW TDI comes from the factory with 236 ftlbs torque and had the stage 1 recall, so I probably had less than that. After uploading the Stage 2 map, I used my ODBeleven device and it showed the car having 430Nm torque or about 320 ftlbs. Overall I am very pleased with the results and cannot wait to add some hardware upgrades to increase the power even more! Get job to the team at Malone! They are very helpful and made this process very easy. Thanks Again Guys!!!

Customer service is outstanding! I had reinstalled the factory tune because of a recall. When I got my car back the ECU info had changed. I could not reload the program. Emailed customer service for help. Received a response from Mark within hrs. Within 48 hrs of my first email, of which 24 were Sunday, I had an updated program and life is good again. Having the factory tuning again only highlighted how impressive the results are with one of Mark’s programs. I urge anyone looking to improve their driving experience to give Malone Tuning a try. You won’t be disappointed.

I was on the fence on gettimg.a tune lined up for my car. 2012 vw tdi with dsg. After doing my research i settled on a malome stage 2 with dsg tune. The only down side to the tune is i should have done it sooner! I decided to order the flashzilla and do it my self. The process was pain less. And the diffrence is amazing. They stand buy their product. Mark emailed me the tunes in a timly fashion. I think not enough credit goes to Owain. He is an unsung hero for sure. I appreciate all the time he has took to answer all my jetta tdi related questions, and now that i baught a grand cherokee with rhe mercedes 3.0l. He has slayed those onslaught of questions with impressive answers. Thanks Owain! I will be ordering a tune for my jeep soon!!!

Thank you Mark for all your help, got stage 2 tuning for my mk6 TDI. Amazing results, couldn’t be happier!!!

Just finished a Stage 1 with the Flashzilla. Very happy with the results. It was a smooth experience, with no hiccups. My car is much more responsive and powerful now. Thanks Malone Tuning! :-)

Installed my Stage 2 Tune today via Flashzilla. Super easy . Seat of the pants first impression is OMG!!!!

In May of 2018 I purchased a 2014 Audi A8L 3.0tdi. I had heard about Malone tunes for diesels as I have added upgraded tunes to my other non-diesel VW and Audis in the past and that name was common and associated with a quality product. Well once I acquired the car I almost immediately went to Malone site to see it they had a tune for my engine. They did so I ordered the tune and the Flashzilla so I could self install. The Flashzilla came in about 3 days. My laptop wouldn't recognize the Flashzilla. I sent a request out for support. Owain actually got back to me in hours, not days. Problem quickly diagnosed, solved. So I downloaded my stock file same day and sent to Malone. By about 5:00 PST I had the tune and 30min later it was installed. I was so impressed with their support and quick response especially given it was well after normal work hours for them.... now that is dedication to your customer x100. So, I installed the stage 2 tune on my car which had just been "fixed" to be compliant. The factory fix, did decrease power and did lower mileage. I went out for my first drive last night and the first word that comes to mind is WOW. So smooth and soooo much torque. The car is so much more responsive and sooo much faster. Anyway, I would highly recommend Malone and highly recommend that anyone with a 3.0tdi get this tune!!!

The stage 2 tune for the Porsche Cayenne diesel is very, very impressive! It's more of what the engineers gave us from the factory, with no drawbacks! I previously tried a 'piggyback' box and it was not good. It made the engine rough, caused stuttering at low throttle inputs, and was very unrefined. The Malone tune is invisible when driving sedately. In fact, my friend asked "when are you getting the tune done?". I answered him with a stab of throttle,and his eyes got large. I couldn't recommend the tune highly enough,and Malone's customer support is GREAT - they're responsive to email, and very understanding!

Couple years ago i looked into modification for my 01 Jetta ALH Tdi, The help from Malone was greatly appreciated, service department answers emails quick, phone call away and talk to someone who knows the cars inside and out. My car was tuned by them 4 or 5 times well i upgraded parts every time. My car currently makes great numbers and the fuel economy is still amazing. Contact Malone tuning whenever u need a question answered or help choosing a tune or supporting mod. Thanks Owen :)

Mark and Owain spent a lot of time helping me with a fueling issue when they didn't have to. Mark even wrote me a custom tune to address my issue. Truly appreciate that they have gone the extra mile to take care of me. Tune here with confidence!

When I got my car back after being neutered by VW it had an "emptiness" that I couldn't quite describe. Peak power and torque appeared to be unchanged but the car did not feel quite the same. The Malone tune is phenomenal and I absolutely love the way my mk6 Golf drives now, power and torque feels way up. The refinement and power delivery make the car drive as if it came from the factory, only far more powerful and responsive. There are zero issues, hiccups or drawbacks and I would not hesitate to recommend your software to anybody looking to improve upon their vehicle.

Owain and Mark are great people to deal with. After a few discussions with Owain I decided on the stage 2 tune for my 2015 Golf. After receiveing my flashzilla it only 30 min to set everything up, download and upload my stock tune. Had my new tune back from Mark on the next business day. The power is immediately noticeable. Couldn't be happier. It's a great product from even better people!

Been running a stage 1 tune on my 2016 Fiat 500 turbo for several months now and could not be happier. car pulls nice and hard. Highly recommend Malone Tuning for your tuning needs. Great folks to deal with.

I'd first like to start with saying I already had a different company's tune on my 2000 A4. It was a bit outdated, and I was having ZERO luck with support from this company's many "dealers" in my location. Several phone calls and emails and multiple attempts to schedule appointments, went unanswered. I found Malone Tuning through a parts company I use, and reached out via Facebook to pick their brain. NO LIE, I had a response from Owain within the hour ready to help. He was extremely patient and helpful answering every single question I had. I ended up shipping my ECU to their main location as they needed to remove the soldered in chip and install a factory socket to flash. They contacted me before doing so rather than footing me the bill at the end. Keir called me personally to talk through and explain the work performed , and clarify some additional requests for my tune. I've never had so much help with any aftermarket company, across all brands I own/ have owned. I did encounter an issue after receiving the ECU , however it was quickly corrected and I couldn't be happier. Your customer support has gained a customer for life! Thanks for everything!

Simply amazing. Had I known how much of a difference a simple tune will do without even changing any parts, I would've done it 2 years ago on the same day I bought the car. 2005 Golf TDI Stage 1.5

Just got my tune for my tt 225 a couple of weeks ago and I couldn't be happier. I have a lot of usable power all over the rev band, which I didn't have from the Apr tune I previously had in it. It was like an on and off switch of boost surge, not comfortable at all. This tune gives me great power in any gear at any rpm and I am also getting three miles per gallon more. Thank You very much.

I have a 2006 Jetta TDI (MK 1.9L BRM) I purchased a Flash Zilla and a Stage 1.5 tune from ECStunning.com. My car is otherwise stock. WOW!!! My car was sort of a "Mutt" before and now it breaks the tires loose in second gear! Its no race car, YET..., but is quite zippy as compared to stock. My fuel mileage also improved 5 mpg. Malone customer service is wonderful as they were able to answer my questions before purchase. Now I plan to upgrade my intake and exhaust and go for Stage 2. Thanks Malone for an awesome tune!!!

First and foremost these guys are THE BEST! 2010 VW CUP EDITION, DSG (2.5) got my tune installed at DDubs, PA. instantly like a new car! it was as it should have been VW!!!! , great torque, excellent response. install was around 22000. moved. dealer "upgraded"during service call, tune destroyed. The guys at Malone worked with karmakanix, Berkeley to return all to "normal" car now has over 50000 runs like a top. if your on the fence DO IT. MALONE TUNING service and expertise alone is more than worth the price of entry!!!!

I had a tune done on my 2012 Passat 2.5 at Trentec Automotive I love this tune it was without a doubt the best mod on my car thus far. Smoother pull throughout the entire power band I just love it.

I couldn't be more happier over the increase in performance and throttle response, the increase in low end power. Charles was very professional thought the entire process and the communication before and after the work was first class. I can't say enough of the tune and work completed but would like to add more for the shop and old school customer service. 2 thumbs and 2 toes for the CR team!

Previously I had a Revo tune which certainly provided power, however caused the opposite of smooth performance. After careful evaluation of all my options I decided to go with a Malone tune. As of now I have had the new stage 2 tune in my CR140 VW Sportwagen for over two years. Having been through each season twice since getting the tune I can honestly say his work is phenomenal. The effects of the tune are just as exciting today as when I had it done. The raw power never fails to thrill and the increased smoothness through the power band, providing a consistently hard pull from start to finish, is just icing on the cake. With over 100 Degree days in the summers and negative degree days in the winters this tune has not caused any issues and my EGT stats have remained healthy. I cannot recommend his services enough!

I recently opted for the Stage 2 + Econo tune , along with the DSG tune and I'm loving it! Mileage is up, the torque and power increase is great and I love what the DSG tune has done for shifting! It's also nice finally hear the turbo spool up. I'd definitely recommend CR Performance LLC for anyone in Central Illinois, very professional.

I'm extremely particular and a tough customer when it comes to my TDI. I have asked a lot of questions to both Mark Malone and Les at Diesel Dubs in Pa. They have both stepped up and more then satisfied my every question in a extremely prompt manner. This tune is aging like a fine wine. The TDI seems to preform better then ever with the economy still improving . I'm a full paying customer. I don't get special treatment (although it seems that way). This is just how they run their business, the old fashion way. They aim to please and they do. The TDI does everything well. With the Stage 2 the car runs low 7 second's 0-60 and it maintains over 40 mpg average. The DSG tune maximizes the Stage 2 and helps put the torque down to the road. If anyone is hesitating or on the fence about getting these tunes, I feel you wasting your time. Just do it and prepare for the transformation.

I initially chose Mark Malone, Malone Tuning to tune my 1Z powered 1978 Bus because of his experience with tuning Vanagons with similar setups. Repowering a heavy, non-aerodynamic vehicle requires paying more attention to EGTs. It's no good to get a big power bump that only lasts until a turbo or piston is melted and Mark has the expertise and judgement to know how-much is too much and how to get the best power & MPG without damaging things. After the initial tuning, Mark has remained available and responsive and has made additional adjustments based on my feedback. The result is that my tune now truly fits my application like a glove. Power, economy are there. Some power has been removed at my request to make it easier on the transaxle. Through it all, Mark had been knowledgeable, responsive and easy to deal with, much recommended!

2012 JSW TDI DSG. I tried a APR flash and was very disappointed. I removed it. I was very skeptical about any re-flash and figured I would just live with a great car that wasn\'t fun to drive and be miserable.. Then I started researching Malone. Everything I researched was positive. I finally had MM Stage 2 and DSG flash. It's been 4 months since the flash and EVERY time I drive the TDI it puts a smile on my face. The economy has also improved. I cant put a dollar value on this because joy is priceless! The entire process is A+!

I installed the DSG tune in preparation for the ECU tune later in the year. What everyone wrote about the DSG tune is absolutely true. The shifts are REALLY smooth - much smoother than stock. The instrument cluster now displays the gear next to "D" (Drive") or "S" (Sport), so no more guessing which gear I'm in. Overall - very pleased and, knowing now that my transmission won't limit power production, I'm anxious to get a Stage 2 tune. Thanks Malone Tuning!

I had a Stage 2 tune along with the DSG tune, on my 2012 Golf TDI. Amazing difference I must say! I am very glad I had a local dealer here who could do the flashing so I wasn't without my car for days. This mod, along with my exhaust upgrade, while expensive, was totally worth it! My MPG has increased by almost 5mpg, about 11% gain! Mark is very awesome to deal with, answers all your questions as quick as he can (he is extremely busy all the time). Getting a Malone tune is definitely a choice anyone would not regret making IMO.

Let me just say that the stage 1 tune from Mark Malone has already exceeded my expectations. I have been talking with Herman, (HermTDI) about doing a tune on my \'02 Jetta TDI 5 speed for a while now but he made me wait and get everything all in order maintenance wise on it first. Then he recommended I go with a tune from Mark Malone stating that he got the stage 3. I decided to go with the stage 1 for now, and wow. It now has very smooth quick acceleration, great pull in every gear and more top end speed! It also appears to still be getting decent fuel economy. Mark was quick to send the tune back on a Saturday. Very satisfied and highly recommend it!

Great Tune with GREAT customer service. I got my 06 Jetta TDI tuned from Mark. He answered all my question and provided great support. This is the only place where ill be getting my tunes from in the future.

Mark answered many questions about retuning my 2003 jetta tdi before we started. He redid an upsolute tune that I did several years ago. Mark's tune is smoother and more powerful through the rpm band than before. I highly recommend doing the tune with vagcom and flashzilla, you will get the most out of your car. Highly recommended...mark will be retuning my BMW 335d in the future!

I have no Idea how Malone could be any better (make my car run on thin air maybe? ), if you are considering a tune, talk to Mark, I promise that he excedes my customer service expectations (repetedly) oh, and the tunes are fantastic in every way.

2011 Jetta 2.0L TDI: Wow! I'm definitely impressed by the service I received from Malone Tuning! I shipped my ECU out to him on a Tuesday night (from Milwaukee, WI) and had it installed back into my car with the Malone Tune by lunctime on Friday. I can't believe how quickly everything was handled. I've only had the new tune for a couple hours, but can definitely notice a difference. I have the 2.0 CR TDI in my car and went with the stage II tune. The car accelerates really smoothly, and much much more quickly! The car is so much more fun to drive now! I would recommend Mark's services to everyone!

I have a 00 TDI Bug that would not run, I had it in three different shops and know one could make it smoke. I sent it to the VW dealership and they wanted to replace the ECM and the Instrument cluster to the tune of $4800, and they did not know if that would fix it or not. I searched a TDI forum and found one of Malone`s former customers and he directed me to Mark and I no longer have a problem with this car. I pulled the ECM out and sent it to mark and for a small fee, he did away with the problem. Great people to deal with AAAAA+

If you are looking to get the most out of your car look no futher! Mark and his tunes are great. I have never had better service than what he provides. He responds ASAP to anything. The flashzilla is great! If you want a great tune from a great guy you have come to the right place. Thanks Malone Tuning for everything.

Malone Tuning is A+ in my mind in every respect, customer service, response for questions and support after sale. Just rare to find this type of service any where these days. Thank you. I had 99.5 MK4 with older tuned chip + .205's for more than 250K miles and contacted Mark recently. Went with stage 3 chip per recommendation and the ECU buy out as I did not want any down time. Frist ECU turned out to be a bad one but Mark replaced it with another ECU in no time at his own expense. I still have some work to do on my car but the product is awesome and so is the service ! Keep up the good work Mark !

I've recently had the opportunity to work with Mark to custom tune my GTI 1.8T. I had Revo Stage 2 software beforehand, but I wanted something that was tailored to my specific vehicle. Thus, I opted for Malone Tuning's Stage 3 custom tune for K04 1.8Ts. Due to potential accessibility issues with my existing ECU, we started tuning from a stock ECU. Tuning requires VCDS and it is an extremely simple process with the FlashZilla units. I data logged my stock ECU and downloaded the ECU's program onto a FlashZilla unit using the extremely helpful guides provided by Malone Tuning. I sent these files to Malone Tuning via email and within a few days, Mark had a preliminary base tune ready for me. The base tune was already an improvement over Revo Stage 2, but Mark insisted I data log the preliminary tune and send him the results for further tweaking. After two revised tunes, Mark was completely satisfied with how my GTI was performing and I couldn't believe the difference he made. Power delivery under the finalized tune was significantly smoother than Revo Stage 2, and the linear boost behaviour made my GTI much more enjoyable to drive. Needless to say, my GTI felt much better (and faster) than it ever did before. The best part is that my GTI was consistently pulling no timing whatsoever! Each time I drive my GTI, I am still amazed that Mark was able to achieve this result. Not only is my GTI performing significantly faster, but it is doing so with much more consistency and safety. Ultimately, Mark's custom tune improved the performance of my GTI while also eliminating all serious risks of detonation. Custom tune or not, I highly suggest going with a Malone Tuning over any other competitors. Not only is Mark extremely skilled in what he does, but he's also an amazing person to work with. Customer service is excellent as Mark is prompt in responding to any inquiries, and he truly cares about each of his customers and helping them achieve what is best for them.

I used to think that the TDI was the ultimate in Mileage. I tuned my dad's 03' Jetta with Mark's Economy tune and could not believe what a difference it made on the car regarding drive-ability and mileage. Out of curiosity, I put a level 2 tune on my '02 TDI and found out that not only did the car get good mileage, it hauled butt when I pushed it. A year later, mark came out with his Dynamic EGR and Idle and I bought his Stage 3 with Dyanmic EGR and Idle. I have driven diesel cars for over 10 years and have never had a diesel warm up so quick. I can only imagine the that this would make the engine last longer and reduce the wear and tear. Today I run a VNT 17 with Mark's Stage 4 and get the best of both worlds, awesome mileage and a car that will smoke a GTI (literally). Mark makes a legendary high MPG car also a legendary FAST car.

I recently bought my vw tdi and within a month had heard nothign but compliments about mark malone on tdiclub. After contacting mark for a tune and programmer he answered me within an hour and had nothing but great informtaion and amazing help. Mark sent me a flashzilla via mail and after my mistake relized my car wasnt able to read the ecu mark re-embursed me my money and shipped a tuned ecu to me within days along with very knowledgeable information abotu tuning diesels and proper maintenance. I have only kind words to say about mark and would reccomend him to any body looking to tune there cars or just looking for information about tuning. Thanks again Malone for the excellent product

I purchased a Malone Flashzilla and tune for a 2006 Jetta BRM from a third party company. Upon initial inspection i was rather confused on how to use the Flashzilla but Malone tuning had a really indepth set of instructions on thier website. Its is now amazing how nice and easy the tuner is to use, it also has the ability to plug into any obd2 port to use as a scanner. As for the tune, i have recieved both HP tunes and fuel MPG tunes and am quite impressed with both tunes. I left an email with Mark at 3am in the morning on a friday and he had already responded to it by noon saturday. If that isnt customer service, than you ask for the improbable. I will be getting a custom tune done soon, and there is no doubt in my mind it will be top notch. Will do ALL my tuning upgrades through Malone tuning from now on.

Thank you so much to Mark Malone for both the tune and incredible customer service. All emails were answered immediately and the car runs great! Mark even offered to wake up at 0430 to accomodate me with the software upload. First-class service all the way. Highly recommended.

I am very pleased with Malone Tuning. My 99.5 VW TDI ECU was substituted for an equivalent, but with upgraded firmware, to speed up the chipping process, thus allowing me to drive sooner. The replacement is simply fantastic--not only did it remedy my hot start problem (notorious in these cars), but it also gave it a whole bunch more ooomph above 2K RPM. The price was also fair and Mark responded to my questions in a timely manner. Thanks for the great service!

Id have to say i was skeptical at first. I had a REVo chip in my car but i got a really good deal on injectors and the revo chip for my year, there is nothing (2000 Jetta TDI). I talk to Street toys in tooele about what to do and they suggested Mark. They said they use him for all their tuning needs. So the same time i went on the TDIclubforums and looked up what people had to say and i couldnt find anything negative about his work. As everyone else has stated he is great to work with and gets back to you fast. I bought the flashzilla and the stage 3 chip for my car and it runs great and it was easy to do and only took a couple minutes. Mark is the best i know and should get paid for his time and patience answering all my questions. I havent meet anyone that works on cars to be as nice as him.

Malone Tuning tuned my 1986 Vanagon Syncro modified with a 2001 ALH TDI. Van currently gets 25mpg and produces 1.8 bar of boost. More power than you can shake a stick at. No smoke. Good fuel milage. Mark walked me through trouble shooting small problems, finding and fixing problems and getting my offroad camper van back on the road smoke free. Very happy customer. Mark went out of his way providing many tunes until I was completely happy. Can hardly wait to tune more vehicles and get better fuel milage and power from VW TDI engines! Thanks Mark.

Mark has done tunes for my car when it was stock, after upgrades (turbo, downpipe and exhaust) and after the VW glow-plug service. Each time we discussed what I wanted and what Mark could provide. Mark always spent the extra time to give me a true custom tune. Very easy to contact and has always gotten back to me the same day. No long wait for feedback. All around superior service and product.

If you are looking at this testimonial, then you are obviously interested in purchasing a tune for your vehicle. Look no further because Malone Tuning provides a product of the highest quality and service that is second to none in any industry that I have purchased goods or services from. Their tunes are very highly regarded and most importantly are custom. Living at a higher altitudes (1100m) and in extreme cold (-30C), I was looking optimize my boost within safe levels and extend glow plug times. After much research, Malone Tuning was only company in Canada able to do both. This brings me to their Flashzilla product. This product is great because you can have your car tuned in the comfort of your own home when you have the time to spare. I believe what really sets Malone Tuning apart from the competition is the service. I have never dealt with a company that was more honest, knowledgeable, or prompt. They sincerely care that you are happy with the product. It felt like I was having a expert friend help out with tuning rather than a random service advisor/mechanic. This is the first time I have ever written a testimonial and it really goes to show how satisfied I am Malone Tuning! Keep up the great work!

Lets start by saying he answered all my question and exceeded my expiations of customer service!! He is very helpful in helping me with any questions i have asked him from, trouble shooting, performance upgrades to what he recommends i do so i don't damage anything on my car, plus his prices are very reasonable. I am very pleased with his prompt email reply's and how fast he ships things out, highly recommended!!!!!!

I got to tell you Volkshaus Automotive and this guy knows what he is doing, he turned my VW 1.8t GTI into a rocket. Having tuned a subaru version 8 sti j spec in the past with no real recognizable improvement which wasn't done buy Malone and dumping it for a older 91 skyline with 303whp which was fun but expensive. This beater which I once called it is more impressive than both those machines with only spending a couple hundred bucks. Best couple hundred bucks I spent in a while.

<p><span style="color: rgb(78, 78, 78); font-family: 'Segoe UI', Calibri, 'Myriad Pro', Myriad, 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">What a cool experience, no hassle, plain easy. I was on a trip to visit a friend in Eastern NC and Andrew Rodriguez, one of Malone's Mobile tuners, shows up bright and early Sat morning. He had me leave my car unlocked so by the time I woke up he had my car opened and his work bench set up. Btw Sandy was approaching just off shore when he was doing this. By the time I walked out side he had began to upload my stock tune. I had already tried to get my car tuned but wasn't successful. Within the hour Andrew had emailed Mark and the waiting game began. Even with a physically corrupted ecu Andrew managed to find a little bit of solder to connect his pins to in order to load and download the stage 1.5 tune. My 2010 JSW has never been this fun to drive. I am a student at NTI so I have limited access to a Dyno I can't wait to see the numbers. My 1/8 drag is a full second faster not only does it get out of the hole faster but 3/4 pull much harder. not to mention even with the sticky track 2nd gear chirps. I beat a 2006 Mustang on my first run. How embarrassing to be beaten by a soccer mom car. Money is a little tight right now but I can't wait to see what Malone tuning can do to further the performance of my JSW.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: rgb(78, 78, 78); font-family: 'Segoe UI', Calibri, 'Myriad Pro', Myriad, 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">2004 GTI 1.8T AWP: I ran a Revo stage 2 before going to a big turbo and ran the stage 3 revo. For my own reasons I went back to stock and was looking for another tune. When I saw the sale price, I figure I give it a try. I got the FlashZilla and a stage 3. Mark worked with a couple of problems that I had (both my fault). I finally got the thing loaded. Pretty easy and not to technical. Just follow the on screen instructions. So far I have been running this tune for about 2-3 weeks. I like it. The boost transition is so nice. With the Revo, I kept having the on-off boost surge. I tried different n75 boost control to fix the problem but no help. I just lived with it. With Mark's tune, I can't make it surge. Believe me, I tried to make it surge on a daily basis and it doesn't. The daily drive thru low boost is so smooth. I am a fan!!!! high boost- 18lbs on the butt dyno feels so strong. Will be hitting the real dyno soon to compare to the Revo stage 2. I also wanted to raise the idle and Mark did this with no problem! running 900 rpm now. Really helps with the VF mounts. G With this stock turbo tune being so good, i'll be checking out his Big Turbo tune soon!</span></p>

I then decided to by that crap from ebay called a tuning box which increased the speed a bit but produced clouds of smoke. I then got in touch with malone tuning after reading about it in passatworld.com. Mark, immediately sent me a pay pal payment request, of which i paid. I was surprised to find out that the first payment was for a tuning box instead of the chip. I then got in touch with mark, and he explained to me that i needed the tuning box before i could tune the car. Mark even offered me a refund because of the misunderstanding. I was shocked that you could still find some honest people in business these days, because most people would come up with some lame excuses. Because of his honesty and prompt response, i made a second payment and Mark sent me the tune. Once i followed the instructions and loaded the tune to the VW, that baby took on a new personality. the stage 2 tune turned that baby into a sports car without all the smoke.. Thanks Mark for your help.. Driving the vw is now so fun now.</span></p>

All thanks to Mark's tunes. If you're sitting on the fence about a tune, get off the damn fence, spend a few bucks on some nozzles, then talk to Mark. Then you'll start looking at a bigger turbo, and when you finally do go with the bigger turbo and an upgrade to your tune from Mark, you'll kick yourself for not doing so earlier.&nbsp;</span></p>

I checked with several tuners before buying a tune, what I liked about Malone tuning is that they rent the Flashzilla, so there no need to purchase it or remove your ECU and send it off with most models. The tuning was done by email, verses sending the ECU back and forth. Mark knew exactly what need to be done to tune my car, even though I have several different modifications. He always returned my emails quickly, and his web site shows you roughly what gains to expect, no guessing what the different stages are. Now I have Jetta TDi with the power of a Subaru WRX and the economy of a Toyota Prius</span></p>

I drive a 2012 VW Golf TDI and had the tune completed just a few months after purchasing the car. The ECU was tuned and shipped back the same day Malone received it and as a result I had my car back up and running only 3 days after I pulled the ECU. I couldn't be happier with the results. I haven't noticed any difference in gas mileage or drive-ability but the fun factor is significantly improved. In it's stock form this car pulls impressively well but after the tune it's kicked up several notches. Now it not only pulls but it'll throw you back in the seat if you really push it. This is a great product with outstanding customer support, there's a reason these guys are so highly recommended!</span></p>

I had been looking at getting my car tuned for about 8 months before I had made up my mind on who I should get, and I haven't regretted it one bit. Once I sent my first email to Mark it was only a matter of minutes before I got a response. His customers service is second to none. And since getting it tuned it feels like somebody woke my car up. Everything is so responsive and yet I haven't lost any mpg. I definitely recommend Malone Tuning to anybody looking to get either a little or a lot more out of your TDi because they know their stuff.</span></p>

Stage 1.5 and Stage 2. I ordered it on New Years Day and I received it a couple days later. How it got here that fast over the holidays is amazing. I downloaded my stock tune and e-mailed it to Mark and within an hour Mark had responded he was almost done BOTH tunes. So I program the Stage 1.5 tune and took my car for the initial shakedown run. (I've owned a supercharged 550+whp Mustang and a 478whp turbo Civic and other faster cars) and I will say this. I have only been startled by such a performance difference 3 times in my life. This is one time. The expectation vs the reality was way off. The stage 1.5 tune blew my mind. The car does not even feel like the same car. It IS completely drive-able as they are stock, but if you want to really enjoy your car, experience the way that it will pull you forward like a rocket with no effort, you need to get Mark's tunes. I haven't even tried the stage 2 yet and I'm excited. If stage 1.5 is that dramatic I look forward to stage 2. Realize that the car is still your reliable, comfortable and efficient TDI and Mark just dramatically improves it. My 04 TDI is now much stronger then my brand new 2013 TDI. Take that as comparison. And that is the 1.5 tune. Marks whole team from the outside dealer I've dealt with, to his inhouse staff are amazing. It's seems they want to inform you so you make the best decision. Trust these people at Malone and EuroMotive. Thank you Mark, Andrew, and Steve. Bravo</span></p>

I had researched mods for my 2000 Golf TDI 5SP for about a year before contacting Mark by email. As the other testimonials stated, he responded to all my many questions within minutes, with patience and always with a thorough answer. I opted for the FlashZilla and, just to get my feet wet, selected a Stage 1.0 tune to see if the results were 1) Noticeable, 2) Reliable, and 3) No impact to MPG. Malone Tuning scores on all accounts. The tune was accomplished by me, under my control, in the privacy of my own home. It was indeed a very noticeable power improvement, a reduction in 0-60 time of over 1.5 seconds, really makes the car fun to drive, it has been running reliably for almost two months now post-tune, and shows no loss of MPG with same driving style as pre-mod at third tank fill-up. Uses just a bit more fuel when I am WOT often. My next mods will be injector nozzle upgrade and Stage 1.5 or Stage 2.0. Can hardly wait to experience the next phase. I will post my results then. Many thanks to Mark of Malone Tuning! Matt Klein
