TIGR's 2015 Tiguan 155TSI R-Line (Reflex Silver) - Build Thread

[Evilz]

Yes, I still get the chirp when i'm foot flat. I'll ask about the mounts.

Thanks for the info re:ABT kit, im assuming you've bought the Rear Skirt Set and the Exhaust? Im just looking at the ABT website and most of the kit options look similar to the R-Line stuff anyway? Keen to know which pieces you've got, and what they look like

I havent installed the turbo muffler delete, mainly because im looking at going K04

Have a look at my post, as i got some of the photo of the installed kit. : )

Hi TIGR

Would you have the diameter/thickness of the stock front and back sway bar vs the HP sway bars you installed??

[tigger73]

The stock rear sway bar is whimpy compared to the stock front bar which is half substantial.

Hi TIGR,

Where did you order those sway bars and control arms?

I dont have them handy, but Harding Performance will - APR - High Performance Development for Audi, VW and Porsche Vehicles.

It's going to be hard to extract the full value for your mods if you are selling it with your car, however you never know, there might be interest from the right person wanting a low km stage II tig...I know I love mine.

[tigger73]

There's some nice quality mods done to your car.

Here's my thoughts. Work out what the going price for your car with the km on it is going to be. Add $3-4k to that for selling it to an enthusiast. It'll probably work out cheaper to sell it complete and is far less hassle than parting it all out. You obviously can't get anything for the software when parted and possibly 50% of the RRP of the parts (minus any labour for returning to stock).

I was lucky when I sold my stage 2+ Tig that an enthusiast bought it and I didn't have to go through the painful exercise of returning to stock.

Would you buy a tuned Tiguan? Return to stock.

Unless your lucky enough to sell it to a fellow enthusiast forum member, id say your chances of selling a modified Tiguan on CarSales will severely limit your potential customers. Most people i see driving Tiguans are women or older people so id say those are your target customers.
