Volkswagen Golf GTI 2.0 TSI R 270hp Remap

The Volkswagen Golf GTI 2.0 TSI R 270hp is a 2.0L turbocharged petrol engine producing 270 BHP and 350 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 310 BHP and 420 Nm — a gain of around 40 BHP (15%) and 70 Nm (20%).

This engine has moderate remap suitability, with gains weighted towards torque — you will notice the difference most strongly in mid-range pulling power and in-gear acceleration. The tuning headroom is classified as moderate, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.

From a technical perspective, the ECU is typically a Bosch MED17 (likely), and the transmission is manual and dsg/s tronic automatics are common depending on model/engine. some dsg/dual-clutch gearboxes have torque management; calibration may be torque-limited..

Considerations: Turbo petrol: fuel quality and cooling can influence repeatable performance.. High tuned torque: check transmission torque capacity and service history.
