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.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Now I still cant believe you believe in this dyno . So Im gonna point out the facts :

    Car dynoed approx 215kw in Sydney
    Car dynoed no more than around 235kw in Queensland
    Car ran with same boost levels (as quoted by Guy)
    Car was run with 4 degrees more timing and race fuel .
    Car made 22% more power .

    To me its like giving a naturally aspirated car a bit more ignition timing and race fuel and gaining 22% more power , Im sorry but I don't believe it . Engines are an air pump , you need to push more air in to get more power .

    So using this info , if I was to get a mk5 R32 and flash it with the race file from APR it should be making 230kw at the flywheel should it not ?

        Exactly , this is a thread about Guys car , not Andys or anyone else's . I disput the figures and have given reasons as to why including a detailed response as to what I beleive the figures should be and why . Im waiting for someone to comment on the figures constructively !

          first post and enjoying popcorn right now...

          The whole thread can be solved by one post of a dyno chart..

          The guys are APR have proven everything they have quoted and have seen the car first hand. i didnt witness the car on the Dyno but have seen enough to invest with confidence in the tuning ability that Guy sells. I believe that bottom line, our cars punching out over 200kw is some serious power and is a merit to any tuning company producing products at this level...

          i will look forward to seeing others results but at the moment, everyone is only arguing over a proven dyno chart and the rest is speculation...

            Then why does Terrence keep bringing up Andy Lins car?

            I think people here and very fast to comment about problems or accusations about tuning companies. I think that we should be celebrating a awesome car and power ability

            I think that we should get both cars to a independant dyno and run them one after another.
            I'm soo euro even my missus is shaved...

              It was Guy and others that did. I didnt mention it, until others mentioned it first!
