How’s the base tune?
VW Tiguan 162 TSI Highline w/ R-Line & DAP. Mods: OEM IS38 turbo, APR IS38 98 RON ECU tune, TVS Stage 2 + with custom TCU tune, APR Downpipe and resonator delete, APR turbo inlet, VWR turbo muffler delete, APR pendulum mount, APR dog bone insert, APR Open Pod Filter (MQB), RAMAIR intake tube, APR Red Ignition Coils, NGK R7437-9 Spark Plugs, DBA T3 slotted rotors front and T2 slotted rotors rear, ATE ceramic pads front and rear Vbox: 0-100 4.1s
Things didn't quite happen late this afternoon and then my wife needed to go to the shops and get her nails done before Easter so long story short I'm picking up the car in the morning. Well I did have her car all week so I guess that's understandable.
There's a base file in it but I've been told no WOT and no running to redline so it'll be mild levels of boost/midrange running only.

Better put a brick or a piece of timber under the accelerator pedal so you don't get excited haha.

Yes she has been very accommodating - especially since we picked up her new car on Monday night and I’ve been driving it all week. She literally only drove it from the dealership home and I’ve had it since. She has vented a couple of times...
And no LC or 0-100 runs for at least another week.

Right picked up the car this morning and it's certainly a different beast.
Its nicely driveable in lower rpm area under 2,500rpm which is where the turbo starts to spool and really starts getting going around 2,800rpm. From there the tacho moves rather rapidly towards 6,000rpm. File is currently on 23psi base map and not going to do much more than daily duties for the next week or so.
Apart from a rattle which is (I think) heatshield it's all pretty good. Cruises along fine, nice little bit of turbo whistle at low rpms under load. But it's quiet at 90km/hr on the expressway.
Probably could do with a bit more exhaust note as there's definitely more growl coming from the engine / downpipe and not much (nothing at all) out the back. Once I get the rattle fixed and the HPFP in and tuned I'll post up a full review along with dyno charts.
