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,

    The standard MQB and Tiguan AD1 kits have specific part numbers so definitely some differences between the 2. I've tried to find out but I'm pretty sure it's just hose lengths.
    Thanks mate, I've contacted Intergrated Engineering as that's who I was set on.

      Be interested what you can find out. This was the other option that I was considering but Harding Performance suggested I’d need different pipe work from the standard MQB kit.

        IE and Wagner get very solid reviews.

        Are you thinking about changing the charge and throttle pipes also ? There are mixed reviews as to whether this adds any power, or is merely better flow.

          I was just looking at changing intercooler at this point in time. That’s min requirement for stage 3 but there’s gains from changing some of the stock pipe work for sure.

              Will not disappoint, she's a little bit tight to fit.

                Is that just getting the old intake off the mounts?

                  It goes under the coolant hose, so is a bit of a tight fit, did you buy the relocation hose?

                    No I didn’t get the relocation hose as it doesn’t make any more power

                        Yeah I’ve watched a couple of install videos warning to be careful. I probably will get the relocation kit later but am prioritising on getting the big ticket items done first and then can sort out the smaller bits and pieces later on.

                              Sounds like a plan. Did you get the intake intake elbow/pipe also?

                                No intake only. I wasn't 100% sure the intake elbow pipe would fit the Tiguan. I'll have to do some more investigation...
