Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

    Welcome mate.
    I would reccomend a tune for stage 1 (APR, viezu, dna etc) to see how it goes when it's released from it's factory restrictions.

      The Pirelli takes incredibly well to tuning. Remapping it will have it delivering Golf R levels of power, or more.
      Once you've had it remapped, then you may want to think about things like a more free-flowing exhaust, but you will be pretty well impressed with just chipping it, guaranteed.

        It comes stock with Golf R levels of power from memory as it runs the same engine as the S3, just FWD.

          I wish it did 169kw vs 188kw. Not sure if the Golf R has more powertrain loss though

            Well there you go, i figured same engine would be the same output but obviously i was mistaken.
            Stage 1 tune should boost it to over Golf/Scirocco R stock power.
