Tigger73's 162TSI Sportline

You will only see an advantage with the bigger cooler and stock turbo if you got a remap.

With stock everything you will have less heat soak now especially if you were driving around in Melbourne over the weekend.

Yes unless the stock intercooler is undersized it should be fine for standard map which this test supports.

Agree that it’s only for higher power applications that you’ll see a major benefit from the larger intercooler .

Have you disabled the torque reduction? I find it launches and takes off harder as it allows for a degree of wheel spin.

Of course I have zero data on this except me giggling like a little kid each time I take off.

Still haven't found the launch counter yet, might be in the long coding which might be undefined at the moment until someone works it out lol.

No still running the stock settings. Haven’t played with these yet.

I haven’t found the launch counter. Not sure if LC gets disabled after a certain number of launches.

Interesting I actually found the section in the owners manual telling you how to launch your Tiguan. Spun me out that it was in the owners manual.

That's where I learned about how to do it...

Work on the Tig has slowed until I have some more funds for the last few parts - HPFP and DP are the last 2 pieces of the puzzle to go.

I need to sell my 20" Kapstadt wheels to fund the last bits of hardware so if anyone is looking for a near-new set of 20" wheels in very good condition buy mine and help fund the project

Link to the ad: 20" Kapstadt wheels 20x8 ET41 - $1,500

And a picture of the wheels if you need a reminder:

How'd you go about removing the top grille (between the headlights) ?

There’s just a few screws to undo along the top and you can remove it.

Decided not to sell the wheels as if I ever decide to trade it in I'll need the stock wheels to fit back on.

Took a few photos on the weekend:

A couple more bits arrived in the last week or two:





Thanks to a couple of forum members for their pre-loved bits going into my build.

And on that news, car is heading into the workshop tomorrow to have the turbo, dump pipe and HPFP fitted and tuning done!

I have the 34 dog mount and racingline intake pipe also...if fitting the intake pipe yourself you need some lubricant to connect it onto the turbo inlet.. mine left coming for first few attempts.. sounded really good though with just turbo inlet

Which turbo you got going in?
