Got tuning? Vw passat 206tsi

[Wynnston]

Sorry don't have the car yet

- Disalble the Auto Hold (button)
- Disable Stop/Start (button)
- Press the ESP/ESC button to turn it "off", you can use either of the two settings "ESC Off/ESC Sport" - Note, this will disable front assist and put an exclamation mark up on your dash (no need to worry, it's perfectly normal).
- Put the car into "S"
- Put your foot firmly (yes quite firmly) on the brake
- Put your foot down on the accelerator. If the car tries to work against the brake then it's not engaged, if its engaged it should rev happily to ~ 4krpm and then bounce off that
- Release brake to take off

There is no visual message/aid to indicate your are in launch control mode.

There is at least 1 guy on here with a JB4. I am waiting to address any warranty concerns before I think about a JB4.

took a wagon for a test drive refresher with my brother again the other day as he is interested in buying..

got to give it a good flogging and this thing is surprisingly fast ! definately gives the golf r mk7 a run for thrills if you also need the space and luxury of the passat.. just as long as you arent in ECO because its definately tuned for family/baby in car driving in eco and is probably not what the car is about in terms of performance... however.. in NORMAL and SPORT has enough pick up to lose your licence if you're not careful and would definately give alot of super cars a run for their money with a stage 1 or 2 tune..

the seats are primo too compared to the golf R leather seats.

still curious as to how people are going with their sedans / wagons, if they've done much tuning to it and how its all holding up in terms of cabin build and rattles e.t.c through hard or daily driving.

this is a cool video of a 206tsi with 480PS from HGP in germany.

Heyas, just bought a MY17 Passat R line w/ 14k kms to replace my Mustang. Just looking into tuning options and wondering what is the best? I used to use a Cobb AP with a Pro Tune for my Turbo Stang but not sure which to get for the VW.

JB4 Numbers on map 2 are

12.7 Second Quarter Mile (Down from 13.5 stock)
4.1 Seconds 0-100. I've seen 3.9 but that's on a slight downward slope (so it doesn't count)

JB4 is punchy and makes the car quick, but isn't as linear as a proper tune. It's essentially a fancy boost controller.

They do a P3 for the B8? I had one in my Tig and in my R56 JCW. They work well.
