Volkswagen Touareg 5.0 TDI V10 R50 350hp Remap

The Volkswagen Touareg 5.0 TDI V10 R50 350hp is a 5.0L turbocharged diesel engine producing 350 BHP and 850 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 400 BHP and 970 Nm — a gain of around 50 BHP (14%) and 120 Nm (14%).

This engine has moderate 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 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.
