Ramee's Tiguan Build Thread 155KW DSG

[K04Tiggy]

I did a 0-100 test with launch control. Had a staggering results of 5.16secs.
My wife was in the car, with full tank of petrol, air-con on and 18in wheels. It was pretty random so I didn't do a second run.

I think under 5 secs is more than achievable. Now I got my VWR coilovers, will do another test soon and see the difference.

This is my 0 to 100 test run time, with K04. I ran with crappy stock 17 inch tires, and stock intake and stock suspension with 1/2 tank petrol + full weight. Run is with a 3000 RPM launch without DSG reflash.



looks like I need to do bit more to get in to comfortable 4 sec category

You just need a bit more practise

Anyway just get a 4.99sec and you can claim to have a sub 5sec car. I'd say ditch the antenna and take out the sub woofer and you'd be there

If you're not going to take it down the drag strip and chase times then it really doesn't matter.

Out of interest what time were you expecting?

I suspect the extra gear change is going to knock a bit off the time - even with DSG. You can't get to 100km/hr in second so you have to change up and that will rob you a couple of tenths.

Still 5 sec out of a 1600kg car is pretty respectable.

I was expecting something around high 4 sec (4.7s - 4.8s) which was predicted by a performance calculation software after I calibrate it with my stage 2 data.

Anyway to get the APR advised power gains I need to have a better intake and possibly a catback exhaust upgrade which I am hopefully going to do soon enough.

Another much easier way to break in to 4 sec is a DSG reflash with bit high launch RPM, this is also recommend by my tuner as it also increase clutch holding pressure to minimise clutch slip under increased torque of K04.

Third option would be get the K04 V3 file (soon to be released hopefully ) and hope for the best

So I think 4 sec run will be inevitable in the future considering many possible ways of achieving it. I am not going to go after breaking times but there is a dream in my mind to make Tig under 5 sec for 0-100 and under 13 sec for quarter mile

Also I highly recommend upgraded Haldex controller for Tigs if people do performance runs as it makes launches lot less fuss and smooth.

I think you've got all the big gain items and everything else will net you only a few more kW. Certainly enough to sneak you into the 4sec club though.

As you say increased launch RPM may be the quickest way to achieve the goal... but also the one that's going to cause most stress on your transmission I would have thought.

My Haldex has been built by Borg Warner in Sweden and is now en-route to Australia via the US. Looking forward to it

Haha! I thought you already had it. So they ran out of stock before you ordered it I think, I am sure you wouldn't be disappointed about the purchase

wow....

Yes out of stock and been on back order for a month

Though hopefully I should see it in the next couple of weeks.

This is my 0 to 100 test run time,

Looks like it rounds to the nearest 0.1 anyway, so you could well have done 4.952! Nice time!

I wonder if it rounds up or down....
