VW and Skoda tuning in Adelaide.

Custom calibration and supporting hardware for VAG performance models, written on our dyno in Parafield Gardens. EA888, EA113 and 2.0 TSI done properly.

The EA888 and EA113 platforms ship with meaningful calibration headroom. The factory has to cover poor fuel, hot ambient conditions and a global service network. In Adelaide, on 98 RON, with a healthy cooling system and a clean intake, there is a clear and repeatable margin to recover.

We calibrate the ECU and the DSG together. Shift points, clamp pressure and torque limits all get attention so the new torque curve is actually held all the way to the wheels.

Every car is logged, then driven, before it goes back to the owner. If you add dyno time, the numbers are the ones the car can repeat, not a one-off cold run.

FAQ

Common questions.

Which VW and Skoda models do you tune?
We focus on the performance VAG platforms: Golf R and GTI, Polo GTI, Octavia RS, Superb and Cupra models sharing the EA888 and EA113 families. If your car is not on that list, ask first and we will be honest about whether it fits our workflow.
Do you tune the DSG gearbox as well?
Yes. On DQ250 and DQ381 boxes we look at clamp pressure, shift points and torque limits so the gearbox can hold the new torque curve. A power figure the gearbox cannot use is not a useful figure.
Is the ECU read over OBD or on the bench?
It depends on the ECU generation. Some EA888 cars can be read over OBD, while others need the ECU removed and read on the bench. We have the tooling for both and will tell you which applies before we quote.
Will a tune affect my factory warranty?
Out of warranty cars are usually straightforward. If the car is still covered, talk to us first. We can be honest about what the dealer will and will not see, and we can return the car to stock when needed.
What fuel should the car run on?
We calibrate every petrol tune to Australian 98 RON premium unleaded. If you only have access to 95 we will discuss the trade-offs before the file is written.
