162 TSI R line in at Underground Performance for Stage 1 tune up

[Kachingg]

So Torque from 350Nm to 425Nm and Power from 162Kw to 178Kw

Not sure why on the graph it say the base Power is 141Kw when the Tiguan un-modded is 162Kw ??

Thats wheel horsepower not flywheel horsepower the tune would be about 200kw or more at flywheel so 162kw to about 200ish kw

Nice!

Is it easy enough to un-mod if I have to ever go back for a warranty repair to VW ?

Unfortunately VW has caught onto this now and can see if your ecu has been flashed and triggers a counter in the software.

Sounds like it voids my warranty

VW are a bunch of fcuk sticks ...

Sounds very reasonable to me that you you void your warranty if you "install software" that increases output by 24%.

Is there a dyno graph on the Torque (Nm) ?

For anyone looking in the future, all dynos measure wheel power. Anyone quoting flywheel numbers, those are calculated.

The graph posted has lines with dots on, this is the torque and referenced off the right han vertical axis. Power has no dots and is referenced off the left hand vertical axis.

It is easy to return the ECU to the stock file. Whether VW go looking for a tune would depend on the nature of the potential claim.

Intel says it will detect a flash of the ECU as soon as it is plugged in during service and will flag it against engine and drivetrain warranty automatically now.

You are right that this won't impact warranty on any claim outside of engine and drivetrain.

Do you know in what gear these figures were obtained.

Gearing will affect both KW and NM figures.

Thank you.

4th which is normal for most dynos. Tyre pressures and a heap of other variables come into play as well. However, this was flashed in situ on the dyno after the stock run. So eliminating much of that.

Don’t forget, the other etuners tune also read 10kw atw less for the stock reading. Different dynos, different time, etc.

Correct. The other tig etuners did which had only 200km on the clock made 125 stock.

Underground use apr and sister company of etuners..

New car should not have a sticky Watergate.

That intake mod they did was cutting out the stock airbox passenger side holes.. Not a good idea as with heavy rain can get water into the intake. The air normally goes from the drivers side and has a section for water to drain before going to intake.
