Has anyone "chipped" their '07-'08 GTI in an effort to increase performance?

A couple of questions:
Does this void your warranty?
Do you have to make any other adjustments to the car to be able to handle the increased HP?
Did you do it yourself and how much did it cost?
OK, that was 4 questions.

I registered just to reply to this question. I have 2007 GTI with dsg. For the first year i had the same problem you have. Took it to the dealer several times but was told everything was normal. It wasn't turbo lag but a very slight stutter. I thought i would just have to live with it. I recently had a check engine light come on that was related to a bad fuel pressure sensor. After the fix and remapping, the stutter is gone. I'm a happy driver now, just sorry it took a year to get right. Have the dealer check that sensor. Could be it. Good luck. Let us know if that was it
