Query - 2017 Passat 206 TSI R - Tuning

[Goublin]

Whilst researching and figuring stuff out. I am right in saying the tsi 206 runs off an ihi turbo? I think I am correct, if that is the cas, looking at pics on line I don't think you can put a two pipe dump pipe on.

So, trying to find mods for the passat is like panning for gold nuggets, not much out there. Loads for the golf R tsi how ever, with teh same engine.

I have just emailed neuspeed if some of their products will fit, 4 emails, 48 hours later....still no sure. Pics of engine bay sent.

Found one website only that does brake upgrades.

Anyone found the same?

Someone needs to did a supplier that has a Golf R DP in stock and that’s happy to do a test-fit.

These will almost certainly bolt up to the turbo, however the question is where the mounts are on the Golf vs. the Passat and then length and where it connects to the mid-pipe.

Given that they are both MQB platform vehicles I’d be surprised if there’s major differences between the 2 but someone has to be the first....

Neuspeed in the US sent me this when i inquired: Your engine is the gen3 so the Golf R Discharge pipe 48.02.47 should fit. We do not make an air charge because OE is full size with no restrictions so an aftermarket pipe will have no benefit.

HI-FLO Turbo Discharge Conversion

Was good of them to be upfront. I'm going to get the TDP.

I had some money coming my way, which now has arrived. I'm getting the following do to the Passat:

Racingline OEM+ stage 2 tune package at HP Brisbane
DSG tune
Racingline IC
Neuspeed TGP
Bespoke cat back Exhaust system

I've spoke to all the suppliers and done my research. I'm hoping to get done by the end of April. Be interesting to see the gains.

The engine is mechanically identical to the MY17 Golf R (not the 17.5). It's only got a slightly different tune which essentially drops 30nm and makes it a little laggier off the line to make things "smoother"

Can you explain more about the "Audi setup"?

1. 01-Engine
2. 07-Coding
3. Long Coding
4. Change the drop down option in Bit 0-2 from "01 Manufacturer: Seat/Skoda/Volkswagen" to "02 Manufacturer: Audi"

I get the coding. More a question about the differences between standard and "Audi" setup. ie what is the difference - is the VW setup deliberately sub-optimal to push purchasers towards Audi (seriously?). Does this affect the Golf R as well as the Passat and Arteon? Has anyone done a set of comparative dyno plots? What is the before and after driver experience (seems positive )?

FWIW I used to have an MX5-SP (one of the 100 special edition Alan Horsely turbo rockets) and a $2 mod on the boost line lifted the engine output from 160kW factory to about 190kW (in a 1200kg car mind you ). Any number of us were doing these mods on dynos - often with an ECU tune at the same time, and could demonstrate the gains and where in the curve they occurred.
