Are they all restricted to 380Nm because of the DSG?
I don't know how/why the 125TDI's would be too much different from the 103TDI's? Sure they might have a different ECU etc, but im sure both would be tuneable.
For instance, my brother has a 2012 Octavia TDI (103kw version) which has a BOSCH EDC17 ecu and we sent it down to John from DNA Tuning in Melbourne to tune it with a stage 1 tune. It was a bench tune and i believe the ECU was encrypted/locked. The car goes like a little rocket now.
If DNA can tune them, then im sure other tuning companies can aswell. (Viezu / Bluefin / CCode / APR / etc etc.)
Most tunes are not restricted by this, more info here: http://www.vwwatercooled.com.au/foru...mit-48406.htmlQuote:

Yes - meant from an ECU perspective. Im aware that the engine/turbo between the two models is considerably different.Quote:

Not true, bluefin (Superchips) offer a tune for the 125tdiQuote:

not all 125TDI's are the same - for starters there is the 125TDI-PD and the 125TDI-CR engines... Which car with the 125TDI are you talking about???
They have Different ECU's and each will tune differently with mods.
I'm not aware of any OBD flash based tuning for the 125TDI-CR - they have to be bench tuned due to the encrypted ECU.
so I don't know what Bluefin offer as as a plug in option - must be a Tuning Box.
I'm running a ChipExpress tuning Box in my 125TDI-CR and It's great.... I even get 4.2 lt/100km economy
According to their website bluefin have a handheld device for the 125tdi-crQuote:

However when you select 2010+ a pop up comes saying you need to be tuned in a workshop, so the encryption must of happened 2010 onwards...
