Concerned mk6 R owner

Post by Longinus »

Advise plz. I have an mk6 r dsg 2012.
Did a stage 1 upgrade and ran it on a fwd dyno, Haldex off. Results were: stock run 150 kw & 323 Nm. Stage 1 164 kw & 355 kw. All figures on wheels. Does this sound correct? for a stage 1 mk6 R. I thought the R was much stronger than this. The car is fully stock otherwise. I'm scared she is not so healthy and I must sell.

Thanks for your advice.

Hi Crumbs

Went with ottingger cause of my warranty. So I'm not sure what the other guys on other maps are pushing.

Thanks for the advice

I think oettinger will have very mild/conservative maps, looking at longevity for the parts. Only guessing here

188kw to 190kw sounds very strong for whp. Especially after drivetrain losses from the flywheel.

Would be interesting to know what other members are pushing on stage 1 only on these cars.

Which dyno? Pretty much sounds like a healthy stock power
