You can chip, but remember this is within the break-in period you want to take it easy on the car (first 1000 miles). Please take a look at the owner's manual, page 253.

I chipped mine around 230ish miles. No probs and no regrets. Go with APR as it seems to work best with the DSG tranny

I agree with both. Chip it whenever you desire, but you definitely need to break in your engine properly. I personally held off on the chipping because I have a lead foot and there is no way I'd break the engine in properly with it being chipped. But that's me.

Cheers!
