I've not read about any on here doing stage 2. But knowing concerns about the 102 turbos I would imagine that would be one thing to consider replacing.Hi everyone, I'm looking to have a stage 2 remap on my 2l tdi t6, but I've been told I'll need to upgrade/add some engine parts.
Has anyone done this before, and if so can you recommend the parts I'll need to change/add please?
Many Thanks
Dave
That was one of the parts suggested.I've not read about any on here doing stage 2. But knowing concerns about the 102 turbos I would imagine that would be one thing to consider replacing.
No doubt the insurance will be more expensive with a mapped engine.Kind of weighing that one up at the minute.
Was just asking the question really, as I'm not sure what sort of cost I'm looking at to do what i need too, to the van.
I've got a mechanic who'll fit all the parts very reasonably, just wondered if anyone knew what I needed and where to get it from?
I'm not a mechanic or anything, but isn't the engine block the same as the 150's which can be tuned up to 195?I’m not aware of anyone going above the 160 ish bhp that you have, on a 102 bhp van.
You could speak to one the serious VW tuners like Revo or Pendle for their advice.

Presuming manual gearbox I would have thought the 5sp box will be the weak point?
Van upgrade sounds like a more sensible choice.
Around 198 I've been told.Where is the fun in that
What kind of BHP would a Stage 2 upgrade give out?
It is 5spd manual.Presuming manual gearbox I would have thought the 5sp box will be the weak point?

Its the box itself is the weak point, not the clutch.It is 5spd manual.
Didn't know if a new clutch upgrade would assist with the extra gearbox load?
Like I said, I'm not a mechanic.Its the box itself is the weak point, not the clutch.
