MK7 GT 2.0 TDI 150 Dyno results

[Andrew@DTUK]

We headed to the dyno this morning with a MK7 Vw Golf 2.0 TDI 150ps, our customer has been running the CRDT for a few weeks now and has been over the moon

I'll let the graph do the talking



196.1bhp and 327.8lbft/445nm

Do the GT and GTD run the same turbo?

Doubt it - the 140 and 170 variants of the 2.0TDI CR in the last gen Golf/Scirocco/Passat didn't.

What figures can I expect from my mk7 gtd with a remap courtesy of you guys?

Single channel (stage 1) and multi channel (stage 2) box modification. Single channel only plugs into the common rail, second channel plugs into the turbo pressure sensor. The box knows a little more about what the car is up to when it makes changes to boost the power.

thanks, so if I wanted to keep the car as unmodified (undetectable) as possible I would be better with a stage 1?

Both channels are supposed to be undetectable according to all the mod-box sellers. The box intercepts the signal from the car's own ECU and modifies it. There is supposed to be no feedback to the ECU to let it know a box is in place or something fishy is going on (in theory!). Some people here have had very good experiences from boxes, I saw a massive increase in car performance when I trialled one, but lack of grip with my Bridgestone tyres put me off keeping it.

so with one fitted are we talking on par with GTI performance?
