Volkswagen Golf 1.6 TDI CR 110hp Remap

The Volkswagen Golf 1.6 TDI CR 110hp is a 1.6L turbocharged diesel engine producing 110 BHP and 250 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 145 BHP and 330 Nm — a gain of around 35 BHP (32%) and 80 Nm (32%).

This engine scores highly for remap suitability, with a balanced spread of gains across both power and torque — providing a noticeable improvement across the rev range. The tuning headroom is classified as high, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.

From a technical perspective, the ECU is a Bosch EDC17 (likely), and the transmission is manual and dsg/s tronic automatics are common depending on model/engine..

Considerations: Large torque increase: drivetrain condition (clutch/gearbox) becomes more important at this level.

Fuel economy note: economy gains unlikely at full power; depends on driving style.

All figures shown are typical estimates based on aggregated Stage 1 data for this engine variant. Actual results depend on vehicle condition, mileage, and the chosen tuning method. We recommend discussing your specific vehicle with a qualified remap professional.
