yep, 245 has the same turbo as the 230ps GTI part number 06K 145 874 L. Different engines though, 245 is more like the R but with slightly different pistons.
Thanks for the info. I'm assuming you mean the 7.5 230ps, not the 7 230?ps

So on a scale of safe tolerances, in your opinion how do you think the REVO map in the original link will push a 245 for a medium/high milage user given they are quoting 310 and lots of torque?

So his stock bhp is 22 above what VW say for a 7.5 GTi? I think the Dyno used needs calibrating  :whistle:

I think the problem is that "some" tuners will artificially inflate the standard figures knowing that they have got a (for instance) 80bhp increase, meaning their headline figures look better in relation to the competition.

I thought it quite widely known the 7.5 in the real world is over 242 bhp. Ive certainly seen quite a few rr results with 250bhp+ standard

Most VW's are usually slightly over but not 22 over at stock.

If they are a healthy 250bhp+ then could explain why the 245 P beat a Clubsport S on the 1/4 mile run  :smiley:

I stumbled across IG user @mpn_1682 who is running revo on his 7.5gti dsg

Stock : 267.40bhp / 270.31 lbft
Stage 1 : 335.35 bhp / 353.13 lbft
Stage 2 : 371.48bhp / 376.17 lbft

So stage 1 alone looks to give some decent figures. Even stock looks great
Interesting find. It looks like some sort of Revo test/development car, so perhaps the owner works for a tuner. Whatever it is there's clearly some vested interest in Revo.

The full stats he's quoting are as follows:

Stock: 232.53whp = 267.40bhp, 270.31Ibs ft
Stage 1: 291.61whp = 335.35bhp, 353.13Ibs ft
Stage 2: 323.03whp = 371.48bhp, 376.17Ibs ft

No dyno plots though... :huh:

Given his figures are consistently +20 to stock and Revo’s - I think we all know it’s on the cock.

Allowing for that though, the increases seem to tie up.
