Volkswagen Golf R MK6 Tuning Box Delivers Big Gains

The Volkswagen Golf R MK6 has a very strong 2.0L turbocharged engine that puts out 270 bhp to its all wheel drive system.  This engine and turbocharger has a lot more to give and that is exactly what the VR Tuned Tuning Box Kit does.  The plug and play box taps into the throttle position sensor and the boost sensor to give the car 66 bhp more on 93 octane.  To prove the performance of this kit, we tested a car here on our Mustang All Wheel Drive Dyno.  Arizona gas is only 91 octane so we did expect close results just under the rating.  Typical drive train loss is around 20-25% as we test on our dynamometer.  Our baseline run on the 6speed manual car yielded 192 horsepower and 198 ft/lbs of torque.  Once we plugged in the very easy install tuning box, the car shot up to 235 horsepower and 238 ft/lbs of torque.  This is a very strong 40 horsepower gain which can definitely be felt in the 0-60 mph as well as mid to top end range.  Based on our drivetrain loss, this gives us almost 320 bhp from 270 bhp which is a nice increase.  Check out the dyno sheet, pictures, video below.  You can also view the installation instructions here.
