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 changes made little if any difference to the power output, but the owners of the cars with the Beta Versions liked the power curve for the street - so now its a production version.

    If you were running WOT on a track all the time, maybe V 1.0 would be better (better power spread), but for around the street, the extra low down punch of V 2.0 seems to be popular
    I'm pretty interested too !
    Does one of you encounters wheels spins in 3rd gear for example ?
    Does the V2 requires bigger rims as the exhaust & intake upgrade seems to be a minimum ?
    What happens to the health of the stock turbo, the stock clutch and the stock gearbox with the V2 ?

    Cheers,

        Health & longevity will be the same as V 1.0 - exhaust & intake is not necessary, but would be nice, same with wheels / brakes etc....

          I'm writing a mail to you and Alex at the moment, as i'm on the way to step on with the ECU upgrade since you released the V2...
          It's just what i'm looking for !! A tune which is more adapted to the street !

          Thks Guy !! You're the best !

              Hey take a look at his location, His english is good but not fantastic. And over there from what i know he doesnt have many options for VW tuning so he relies alot on what he reads here.

              edit - oh and he gets excited when he hears good information about his car.
