Comparisons are calculated from our own recorded Stage 1 figures.
The Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 TDI 225hp is a 3.0L turbocharged diesel engine producing 225 BHP and 500 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 275 BHP and 575 Nm — a gain of around 50 BHP (22%) and 75 Nm (15%).
This engine has moderate remap suitability, with gains weighted towards peak power — the improvement is most noticeable at higher RPM. The tuning headroom is classified as moderate, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.
From a technical perspective, the ECU is a Bosch EDC16 (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. at this torque level, transmission and driveline servicing history becomes especially important..
Considerations: High tuned torque: check transmission torque capacity and service history.. Older diesel: injector, turbo and intake condition can affect results; ensure maintenance is up to date.
Fuel economy note: possible improvement with conservative driving.
