    Peak boost of ~22PSI on the TSI. Simply can't do a launch video holding a phone as its a bit violent .... ~6.5s 0-100 in an Amarok is a wild ride

    Current: 2023 MY23 T-Roc R Lapiz Blue + Beats Audio + Black pack 2018 MY19 Golf R manual Lapiz Blue + DAP (mods are underway ) 2018 MY18 Golf 110TSI Trendline manual White (with mods now 150TSI) 2014 Amarok TSI Red (tuned over 200kw + lots of extras) 2013 Up! manual Red 10 Previous VWs and some others ...

    Its actually been tuned since 2015 (well before the V6s came out) Launching a manual tuned petrol Amarok is much more violent than any of the V6s ..... That auto box in the V6 takes most of the violence out of it .... I know, have done both

    Nice!! I like the sound of the exhaust too. Gotta love the old 'Puffing Billy' train whistle as my kids call it haha!

    I'll second the tuned TSI launch, reminds me of my old 13B RX3 bridgeport but alot less wheelspin

    Hey mate, wondering if you've done any research into HD clutch kits. Mines been tuned for about 20,000km now and the clutch is slowly letting go. Mechanic says go standard Sach's or Exedy kit but i'm looking into HD kits like Xtreme Outback dual mass to help hold the extra power. Thoughts?!

    Maybe also talk to NPC. They make some nice clutches. I had one in my 800Nm TD42 Patrol.

    In planning stages on taking Big Red to a K04 upgrade in the not too distant future. I have mapped every engine part to the equivalent engine part in the MK6 GTI (engine code CCTA) and there are only 3 material differences ... exhaust cam, turbo and ECU (and the Amarok intake manifold does not have the runner flaps it seems)

    Use these as a starting point and navigate up to the correct engine section.

    Amarok TSI
    intake system; vacuum system Amarok (AMA) 2013 year Volkswagen EUROPA 133030

    GTI engine - look for CCTA
    intake system; vacuum system Golf/Variant/4Motion (GOLF) 2012 year Volkswagen EUROPA 133030

    Found the K04 (2.0T K04 Turbo Upgrade Longitudinal
    – HPA Motorsports
    ) needed and the intake (2.0T FSI/TSI Intake Manifold V2
    – HPA Motorsports
    ) upgrade to do the swap from HPA Motorsports. Then "only" need to load the appropriate K04 tune (HPA Stage 3 K04 Hybrid Tune
    – HPA Motorsports
    ) to the Amarok ECU. Sounds easy but I am still researching whether this would be possible ...

    ~270kw/500NM is the expected result I believe

    Also researching what would be needed to "build" the motor for stage 3 and since the Amarok and CCTA engines uses the exact same pistons, rods and rings, any aftermarket forged setup suitable for the CCTA will work
