I ran several Forge components on my GTI and it was all quality stuff. In Brisbane speak to Shaneth (here on the forum) to order anything in.

As far as I know, the states only get the 147 and the bigger TDi - whatever that is.

the States DON'T get ANY diesel, only one engine 147, that's it !! and although they can get the manual, they can't get manual with 4Motion AND it's only on their base model.

For all you guys looking for aftermarket wheels that will fit the Tig look as an example at these guys:

Anything with 5x112 & Offset 42 will fit a Tiguan and they have 18" and 19" and various OEM VW/Audi styles.

I like the RS4s and RS6s and have gone with 18" Hyper Silver RS4s. (From another dealer though, but similar)

Is that 42 offset correct given the extra wheel width over stock? I'm liking those RS8s I notice they have a copy of the ABT rims also

Our engine codes that we have worked on so far are:

CAWA = 125kw
CAWB = 147kw

It looks like the intercooler is different (and some of the plumbing) & the rear exhaust is also different, looks like the intake is the same & most base parts are the same though!

Engine code on 147KW should be CCTA not CAWB.

As far as most of the actual differences between the 2 configuarations.
The engine is virtually identical, the Head are the same, the cams are the same, and intercooler is the same.
them pistons and rods are the same, the turbo is the same, only a few little hoses etc are revised, nothing to impact on power.

Its a good thing the TSI engine have the same size rod bolts as the pirelli and s3 motors of a 9mm rods bolt instead on 8mm in normal GTI's.

only notable differences is the downpipe is slightly different, the center section exhaust is the same, and a slight difference in rear section.
The ecu's are different.

For modders, the final power potential would be very similar.

I have on order my Tiguan 125KW and will see what i end up doing with that.

On the cards is Giac tune, and possibly VF TSI turbo kit.

I suggest you actually look at the engine code instead of guessing - we have another 147kw Tiguan here today & guess what - its CAWB same as the others we have worked on.

This is now the fifth one we have tuned & they all have the same engine code. I think you are using US information - not applicable to the AUS cars.

How many Tiguan's have you actually programmed or pulled apart?

We hope to have the first Tiguan with a Stage 3 on it in the coming months: Just like this baby!
