There's plenty on the Facebook group, Tiguan Club Australia, if you are able to join that.

All those springs lean towards more sportier handling, ie stiffer. I've had the Eibachs on for about 5 months now, paired with OEM DCC shocks. For day to day driving in Sydney residential areas I...

It was a lot of money spent. I went overboard but I typically keep my cars for 10+ years. Racingline is quite an expensive brand too, I just like their stuff.
I also got completely sucked in by what...

Yeah they parted ways, the guy running Etuners Motorsport is doing so on his own, the guys in Sydney still use their ECU wiz in Greece.

I went straight from stock to Stage 3 :P with a TTE475 (hybrid IS38, CTS Downpipe, Wagner Intercooler, Racingline induction kit (R600 cold air intake, cotton filter, silicon hose, high flow turbo...

So not much of a difference when it comes to braking over the stock setup? Other than hitting the brakes harder would cause you to pull up quicker I mean.

For a laugh I called up my local VW...

Hi Tigger, just checking in on your brake upgrades. You got the 6 pots put in the front, right? How is the feel now since they've had time to bed in?
Are the rears also going well? Did you get a...

Your best bet is to go a basic Stage 2. Get an IS38 fitted and a matching tune. Leave everything else as is. You'll be amazed at how snappy the car becomes.

You could go for minor intake mods but...

You will most likely end up with understeer with the front sway bar. I've done the rear, and honestly, the car handles perfectly in bends now. My mechanic with an RSQ3 who also has an aftermarket...

It's a 10in drop over factory. I've got them. Gets rid of the unsightly gap in the wheel arch if you ask me, and doesn't sacrifice ride quality.
The DCC modes benefit. Sports is firmer, normal mode...

Try this one. That other one only works if you use Tapatalk on mobile.

Having carried both the Tiguan and Golf R muffler they're definitely a heavy weight. The Golf R is heavier, probably around 14-16kg, the Tiguan around 10-12kg.
At a guess.

Oddly enough it looks like it's just on one side going by the soot markings on the section that was cut out.

That's a completely new head cover, never seen that before. They all came with this (without out the mention of R, of course).50798

What are you looking at regarding the number plates?

A stage 2/2+ tune and matching DSG tune is the way to go.

If I'd do this again I'd either go standard IS38 or that TTE one you're keen on. ...

Great video.

Interesting that the low pressure fuel pump was mentioned. I only ever saw that done in the Mighty Car Mods Golf R stage 3 mod they did, and there's not a great deal of info around...

In Drive the farts are there just subtle when compared to other tigs with stock piping and res deletes. There's a nice deep low note at idle and very low speed. There's also nice subtle exhaust...

My mistake then. Those comments weren't present on that specific clip when I looked.

That is with the resonator removed. You don't get that rasp on start up with a resonator.
He also has the stock downpipe connected.
He does have it rigged so that the res delete pipe can be...

Nice. You might want to blank out the guys details :)

No, it's a split system. Completely different and incompatible.

Already got that installed in mine.
I had a knock off MST pod filter in place of the Racingline foam one.
Definitely hearing more induction noise.
No hard facts on whether it breaths better, but...

What's the advantage in the Mk7s?

You're gonna like what the swaybar does to the handling of the car.

I can't recall, did you also get lowered springs put on earlier?

It's 4x9 oval offset and 12in long. :)

Muffler mechanic said he had it for about 3 years on a shelf and was going to install a hot dog res when he remembered the magnaflow.
