400BHP BAGGED DAILY?!? 🤩 Audi A7 3.0 V6 💪

- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2024
- Cars around Darkside don't stay subtle for long and the A7 is no exception!
After seeing the engine already out for timing chain replacement, Scott decided it was time to give the turbo an upgrade, swapping the standard GTD2060 for a GTD2872!! 😈
Previously tuned to 321hp, a new turbo, metering valve and 2700bar pressure sensor has pushed this beast to 402bhp and 625lbs/ft!! 💪

It’s nice to see another A7 TDI getting tuned up. I thought that I was the only one. Thank you for all of the parts and tuning services that the Darkside team has provided for my A7 over in the US.
This is like Christmas and New Year at the start of the year. 11/10! 😍🔥🔥🔥
I adore your work team Darkside ❤️🇰🇪
Love these V6's
Superb, would love this turbo and set up on my D4 A8 sport executive one day. 😊
What a bonny car with some grunt too 💨💨👌🏼
Vag tdi engines are cool. I have 3.0tdi with 320hp and 5.9tdi with 600hp/1150nm. Used to have 4.2tdi with 490hp 980nm, but sold it
Nice! What was the best engine out of the 3?
@torquesteer2657 all of them are good. But I like 4.2tdi the most since it was with 8AT (Cayenne 958), unlike 5.9tdi, that only works with 6AT (Q7)
sounds nice too 👍👍
What a car.
Really interesting video
I want that plate. Good video as ever lads.
Not for sale!
I have got SCO7 4D for sale though
The A7 has to be the best Audi in recent years and the grey spec with Bentley wheels is brilliant. Have you ever experimented with 3073 or 3279 turbo on the 3.0TDI or BMW B57?
We did a GTC3786 on our project Audi A5 that did just over 500hp and 650lbs/ft - www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/audi-a5-b8-3-0-tdi-cr240-ccwa/
Belle vidéo 👌 😉. Audi 👌 👍 😉
NICE!
Nice build...
Finally 🤩🙌🏻
On board from Spa 😉
Chirping noise on a cold start isn’t that the water pump fault. Mine stock but started leaking coolant (60k 2015)
Loved mine. Until gear box mech unit went 😢
V6 tdi ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Can you do this turbo upgrade with the DPF still in? I live in Germany and without the DPF our TÜV (inspection needed every 2 years) would send the car off the road unfortunately
Should be able to yes
Same hp as my BMW on your dyno but quite a lot less torque, It's a beautiful car. When we gunna see what the Panamera does because I want one
Got some stuff on the Panamera coming soon
What's the best Audi engine for tuning? Also how does it compare to the best BMW engine for tuning?
Depends on what kind of power you're looking for and what kind of age you want the car to be. Can't go wrong with the old 1.9 and 2.0 PD's. If you're wanting a big power car, the 3.0 tdi's are probably the best audi have to offer, plenty of after market support. Bmw's are very easy to make big power on though, with the 30/35d's especially. Can achieve up to 390bhp very easily with just an intercooler and remap
7:07 there is a pulsating noise from the turbo, is this compressor surging or something about the vane movement?
Close to the surge line!
Are them mods bundled together on the website?
P.s. time lapse in the video are so satisfying 😅
They aren't unfortunately. Links are in description for the parts in this video and you can drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk with reg/vin and we can give you a list of parts and costs including labour
Swwweeeeeeeeeet👍😉💪
We need more TDIs in merica
Is this engine and gearbox better/worse than the 3.0BiTDI 8 speed combo, or just down to preference etc? I haven't seen many more vids from you guys on the SQ5/3.0BiTDI. Have they fallen out of flavour or prefernce? Cheers from Aus.
I'm interested to know as well as I'm looking between sq5 or A7 bitdi and can't decide.
The 8 speed is a better gearbox, Scott did want the BiTdi with the 8 speed. Not done a whole lot on the SQ5's. The 272 model in this A7 does around 320hp on a remap where as the BiTdi should do around 360-380bhp
I have c7 allroad bitdi with a stage 1. The engine/gearbox combo work really well. Acceleration is impressive too. 😁For a big heavy car. Long term mpg avg is just over 40mpg for the last 30k miles. 👍
@@greigmackay8465 the bitdi allroad didn't come to Australia as far as I know and I've never seen an estate a6 with the bitdi either. Only the a6 sedan, a7, and sq5 have the bitdi and 8 speed combo. Happy to hear it's still a solid combo 10 years later and still worth trying to get. Cheers
Looking to purchase a Q7, is the 3.0TDI V6 the same engine as in the A7 or are there lots of variants? Would be keen on a steer of best engine code to look out for as most reliable for a stage 1 Map? would you recommend any other replacement parts to achieve 300hp or there abouts? tia
You'd be looking at the CASA which does 290-300hp on a remap and CRTD (the engine in this A7) does around 320hp on a remap
Lovely set up lads , hows the a6 c6 allraod coming along ?
We'll be getting more on this soon once Josh brings it in. He's started working with us now so should be able to get it in more often
👍brilliant , looking forward to it.
Are you running standard oil pressure? Few people have had bottom end damage (No one knows the cause) and of course the well known camshaft issue.
No we have now increased this (Y)
The bigger metering valve flows too much fuel. Fine if the outside temps are above 10oC as soon as my fuel temp is below 8oC I hit protection maps. The metering valve can’t regulate the rail pressure fast enough. I’m running 2700bar rail sensor. Protection map set at 2300bar, rail pressure set at 2200bar. I see massive spikes in rail pressure, when the fuel is cold
Tune it and that won't happen
You don't need the metering valve 😂
How do you know @@balders6095?
@DarksideDevelopments i have your setup purchased from you. Thank you. Wasn't a dig, but the metering upgrade valve was/is not required, For the maximum airflow the hybrid turbo can produce. Standard injectors and pump still going strong over 12k. I'm making slightly more power than you, but that could be the dyno. Well done, as i said wasn't a dig but i feel it's not required.
The metering valve definitely makes a difference.
Hi! I have an 15 plate A6 with 3.0 tdi(single turbo) and 214bhp or 160kw as it said on the sticker. What sort of power increase can I have without removing EGR, DPF and AdBlue? I'm asking this because it's my first ever Audi, and I just don't know much about them. But I am curious ^^ . Thank you!
~230kw
Should be around the 300bhp mark
Hi ryan, whats the cost for doing the chains. And a cost for chains,flywheel,clutch,tune thanks buddy. Same as that car 3.0 272
Drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk with reg/vin and we can get you a quote on the job including parts and labour
@DarksideDevelopments will do thanks mate
What do you think of Fiat's 1.9CDTI engine ? Would be interesting to see what you could do with that.
Not something we would ever work on really
Wanted one of these or the a6 allroad but insurance is shocking 😭😭would be the perfect daily
Give howdens a bell I got a great price for my a6 allroad bitdi with ECU/TCU tune, bigger intercooler and water meth
@@smitch_yt how much we talking
what fuel pressure and turbo pressure are you guys runing to achieve that?
2200bar
@@ryanp6138 and turbo pressure?
what u mentioned trans slippage, but he a5 u guys had around 500hp had if im not mistaken stock trans whats the difference there ?
yeah, around 600-650lbs/ft they can slip a little, that's why we eneded up down tuning the A5 a little when we gave it away
I’ve got same a7 the 272 bhp had a map and gearbox map. Now it’s got 318bhp. How much it cost to get it too 400bhp? Basically what you’ve done to this a7???
Drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk with vin/reg and we can give you costs including parts and labour
My friends 12 plate Q7 3.0 tdi 240 hp 90k broke down no power and white smoke it did have the start of an injector seal leak but maybe fuel pump fault?
More than likely injectors, we've seen it a few times with them. Get them to drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk with reg/vin if they want anymore advice on the issue and parts needed
whats hte best gearbox to have on the a6/a7 ?
8HP seems to be the strongest, although these are only available in the Bi-tdi and newer 3.0 V6's
How much would this be if I want it on my A7 with the new turbo and tuning to get 400bhp? GBP £££
Drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk with reg/vin and we can give you costs including labour
What was your rail pressure at for example like 3000 RPM?
2200bar
@@ryanp6138you went close to max pretty early on in the revrange then. Appreciate it!
So what affect did this have on the 0-60? Was it in the 3’s like the A5??
I don't think we actually timed it after, it should be low 4s at least
What you think of bmw x3 m40 d engine from 2022?
Not done much on the newer m40d's as of yet so. Based on previous years, we've done more development on the 30/35d's, can imagine they'll be just as strong as the 35d's
@@DarksideDevelopments Thanks!
How much cost total remap 3.0 tdi price?
Drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk with reg/vin and we can let you know pricing
would anyone know the cost of doing the works he's done on the engine so far ?
Drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk with reg/vin and we can tell you the costs including labour
What's the tool used at 4:01?
Actuator adjustment tool to check the vanes move freely and won't touch the turbine
@@ryanp6138 Cool, what model?
Hi is this the Biturbo Tdi ?
You can see one turbo is being bolted onto the exhaust and you still asked this question?
No, single turbo
Tdi pawer
what is the maximum of this car. I heard 650 horsepower. with two hybrid turbines. This is true ? why don't you do that?
This one is the single turbo, most we've had out of a bitdi was 409bhp but we've not pushed them far enough yet but 650 would take a lot. We got just over 500 with a single turbo on our A5 project
I have bought Audi A6 BITDI STAGE1 around 360ish BHP 800NM i have a video on my page "youtube" take a look my car has done 104Kmiles when does the timing need to be done?
Between 80k and 120k is a good time. The chains themselves are normally strong, it's the guides that tend to fail. Got a video on it here - ruclips.net/video/-2cJAmUXqJs/видео.html
Cool video! But can I just say that instead of trying to start the car at 4:38 for 2-3 sec you can just sort of "prepare" the pumps from software, and then it fires off immediately. It may affect the engine in the future because it's essentially running on nothing. That's what my mechanic does at least.
We make sure everything is primed using VAG-com before attempting to fire the car up
what sort of a tuning company does not have a telephone line ??? you cant even order parts over the phone ...to busy making these videos
We have a dedicated sales team that handles all emails. Any questions can be answered or directed to the correct person within the company over email, making sure you get the best advice possible. We receive hundreds of emails every day that are replied to swiftly and as it is a small team, receiving this many calls would be impossible
How long as an "average" do the 3.0 TDI timing chains last? This is just info, since I am getting ready to find an A6/7 here in the US. We only got up to the V2, 2016 version, I think?
There is no set mileage, we have seen them needed anything from 60k to 160k+. Luckily they don't just fail like some BMW engines, you can hear the rattle on start up when the start failing.
@@DarksideDevelopments , Got it, Thank you
