Ramee's Tiguan Build Thread 155KW DSG

[tigger73]

Be interested in your feedback on running this as a daily driver in city traffic. Sounds like v2.2 was a bit aggressive whereas v3.1 is more all-rounder... which is far better suited to a daily driver IMHO

I didn't/ couldn't notice much of a change since I was still getting used to the new exhaust. Basically Friday I got the new exhaust installed and Saturday I got the tune done so didn't feel much difference. But I heard people are saying new tune has change the exhaust note in a good way. Yeah I like the tune too, I think power delivery is quite suitable for the Tig and complement it's character well !

Ok yeah, I think the tune is a big improvement, able to make better use of the power. Time for me to turn my attention to the suspension. Not sure yet what to go for

Yeah I had same dilemma about suspension setup which one to select coil-overs, springs or spring- shock combo. I think it depends on the application like daily driver, weekend fun car or track car etc. In my case it is my daily driver and I drive some distance so I needed some comfort so I chose Koni yellows and Eibach springs. I am running softest setting and it is not much difference to stock setup in ride comfort.
But I am sure now there are more advance systems like KW V3's that can adapt for any application but was out of my budget.

Yeah mine is a DD too & some highway & twisty stuff in the flinders ranges, I also have DCC. I was thinking coil overs would be a bit overkill thinking of VWR linear springs F&R bars not sure yet, can't decide

I don't have much experience with DCC but Google is your friend read lot of reviews and decide yourself I saw KW has very nice set up for DCC but very expensive.
