189 kw from a wee chip

We did, but its top secret!

But suffice to say that they both tune to the same / similar numbers. The auto box is good for these torque figures also in terms of longevity? Or would a tranny cooler be useful?

[Guy_H]

Correct!

No long term problems expected with motor / transmission as long as you service them as specified by VW! ~ 400nm is easily handled by the DSG!

Why do you want a girl's gear box anyway?

[Guy_H]

This is a pic of the stage 3 already installed in the Tiguan.

This is the one that APR built for VW of America - it has the Auto Box

[Guy_H]

P.S. - The Tiguan airboxes should be in stock early next month as well

because it is a girls car, it's my wifes!

My toy is an S15 200sx, partially stripped and caged running about 275rwkw in a 1200kg car, enough for some cheap thrills

Do you know if those headlights are the aftermarket Hella jobbies Guy? Looks a bit like them. Yummo!

I know the feeling ... ... but because its the wife's car and I have to drive it occassionaly I want it to go as well ..... hence the subtle mods planned.

and on the toy ... nice !! ... now imagine the fun in a 800kg 243kwatw MK1 .... .... quicker than an Yamaha R1 40-200km/h ........

Remember that the Tig doesn't have DSG.

Correct - Sorry!

Thanks Guy

[Guy_H]

as far as they know, they are optional Bi Xenon factory headlights!

[Pullstarter]

They look pretty nice, didn't really want to spend 2k on headlights tho I'm rather liking these hella ones;
