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,

is the 132 engine a detuned 162 engine ?

In the gen1 Tiguan the 125/132TSI was a detuned version of the 147/162TSI.
However in the 2nd Gen Tiguan the 132TSI and 162TSI are quite different engines. So if you're looking at maximising your tuning options you really need to get the 162TSI Highline which runs the same engine as the Mk7 Golf GTI/Gen 3 Octavia RS.
The 132TSI runs a CZPA engine which has a higher Compression ratio than the 162TSI CHHB engine.
132TSI/CZPA = 11.65:1
162TSI/CHHB = 9.6:1
