Tuning / performance update

[clip]

I volunteered my Tig to take the prototype .....

That said, some other exhaust specialists can do good work. On my GTI I went elsewhere for a custom downpipe and cat and it made 11+kw atw difference.

I think we need to get together sharkie!

My H&R sport springs arrived

Looks good Sharkie.
Those RS4's will look ace on the tig, especially when its sitting on the new H&R springs.

Sharkie, you don't need those springs yet do you? How about lending them to a fellow tig owner???

See my thread for the end result Sharkie Looks like the ET42 rims will probably work too, i must have been extra paranoid that day

LOL ... I was replying to your thread when you did this. Looks promising doesn't it.

John, I'd normally have no problem with that .... ... BUT .. on hearing from Simon, I figure I won't get them back from you afterwards ...

Time to order some more in from GTI_Dave methinks ..... he's been good to deal with and the price was excellent.

Diesel performance tuning

Hi,

Two weeks ago I ordered a Diesel Tiguan and want to find out if anyone with same vehicle has reprogrammed the chip for greater performance and fuel economy. If so, what were the results.

[Pullstarter]

I think Oettinger does the 103TDI chip, have a look on their website, from memory it goes up to 125kw but not sure about torque.

[DieselTig]

I will give it a go and see what I can find.
Thanks

[Sharkie]

Thanks Sharkie. that looks more like it.
I need to find someone in Melbourne that I can take the vehicle and do it.
I spoke to volkspower in Melbourne but they are very priceyyyy @ $1800 to flash the eprom considering it only takes 20 minutes to do.
I also spoke to Audi Spares and they are @ $950 but he doesnt know yet if GIAC have a flash for it yet.

Keep you posted.

Speak to Guy for some more details. The Oettinger reflash includes a full drivetrain warranty which the others don't. To cut costs I believe you can opt out of that though.

Revo and GIAC don't do diesels I believe, neither does APR.

Other options are DPChip for instance

http://www.dpchip.com.au/ these are plugins though and I have some reservations about that ...... it does have some good write ups and are around $1200 I believe.

Tiguan 103kw/320NM => 124kw/368NM

I like the idea of full drivetrain warranty and I guess the costs become less of an issue then. I will be in touch with Guy today to discuss this further.

thanx sharkie.
