Ran this module on my wife's 2019 tiguan for a little while before going with a APR tune but it definitely gave it some nice pickup especially when getting on the highway 👍🏽
Just got one for my 19' Arteon SEL 4Motion. Got it used for $140 and the guy installed it. I already had the 034 motorsport turbo inlet and P34 OEM style air box with larger diameter integrated turbo pipe. I also have APR coils and RS7 spark plugs and recently did an oil flush with Liquid Moly. It's just what I wanted for my daily driver car. Yes, perfect for highway driving, since I work at 5am and have open road. I can pass slow cars and big rigs with ease. Butt dyno can really feel the pick up. Great purchase.
Was about to go this route with Wifeys Tig. Till we said screw it and went APR stage 1, and man. Paired with TIP, intake, APR coils and RS7 plugs…. One hell of a difference!
@@srsairbags sorry for the late response but no, unless you do stage 2 which APR doesn’t do, you’ll have to source out another route. There are tuners that have done stage 2 on MQB Tiguans. I believe BDT (Boost Dynamics Tuning ) is one of them.
So a buddy tried this on his wife's 2022 tiguan. It definitely improved his performance, but, not as much as my tune improved mine. The price difference between a stage 1 tune and this module isn't that much, but the difference is worth it because the tune adds changes to the transmission
I went straight to a apr stage plus tune on my '22. Huge difference just in going around town. The benefit is still getting a warranty from apr and the dealer did the work.
Also, I got almost a 2 second bump in 0-60. 8.5 to 6.8 as I measured. 20 degrees out, so maybe a little faster in spring. Not sure I want the muffler delete, but looking into cat back systems
I bought this module for my golf sportwagen and I haven’t installed it yet so I’m curious to see it! I’ve been following your channel for a little while now and never noticed this vid. Was thinking of picking up a sweatshirt! Keep up the great work!
I heard it might not be good to have an aftermarket blow off valve installed with this plug in- have you had any concerns or experience with this at all?
About to do this to the ole lady's 18 tiguan. Any drivablity issues? 1 second shaved is impressive. Even though it's still slow it'll be less slow which, when i drive it compared to my f150 I can't believe how slow it is haha
It's the 2.0 but the Gen3.B EA888 is my understanding (hopefully someone corrects me if I'm wrong). Produces slightly less HP, but torque is up a bit. I believe it's the Continental turbo.
@@DadWagon yes it is the 2.0 ea888 Gen 3b. It however uses an is20 turbo, at least on the one in the Tiguan. The 2.0 gen 3b non mqb in the beetle and Passat I think may use the continental turbo. Sadly not as moddable as the regular Gen 3 1.8/2.0
first run (stock), in the first second the car was roling, and you didn't quite push the pedal so you lost 1 second, exatcly the second "gained" with the tune box... so does not seem like an improvement to me.
Installed it to my 2017 A6 2.0 tfsi, run great for a year but now dsg shifts jerky and rough under load, S mode +5000rpm are worst. Uninstall it and everything went back to normal.

how diferent from apr
@@vekeyes3861 mainly more power but there are more drivability tweaks APR does due to it being an actual ecm reflash and not just a piggyback tune
@Elegant Surfaces Far as I know your not supposed to run the neuspeed modules on cars already tuned with ECM tunes.
@@fixinbrokevws9959 Correct
@@elegantsurfaces7934 definitely not recommend, this is how you’ll blow turbos and potentially a catastrophic failure internally.

Is there any need to get an upgraded downpipe ?

Hoping you can do a followup video with the high setting!

Living in a state with emission laws, this looks like a good option!

Hope you enjoy it and thanks so much for watching. Comment back on your thoughts once installed.
That is exactly what I was looking at just a little more go especially for merging and passing in regular traffic
Always allow a bit of time for the ECU to learn the new settings that the module has introduced.
I heard it might not be good to have an aftermarket blow off valve installed with this plug in- have you had any concerns or experience with this at all?
will this work for a 2014 vw tiguan FWD?? please respond
I installed this on mine and I’m getting random hick ups at some rpms, I’m using it at the lower setting with 91 octane
Isn't the 7psi switch for 100 octane? Might explain why it felt off

No drivability issues to speak to at this time.
Quick question do you know where the ac drain located I have a 2018 Tiguan SE. thank you
I do not but maybe this diagram is helpful www.vwtiguan.org/860/refrigerant_circuit.html
Those tiguans are the same ea888 right? Are they 1.8 or 2.0? Do they have the is12 turbo? Interesting to see the speed differences
It's the 2.0 but the Gen3.B EA888 is my understanding (hopefully someone corrects me if I'm wrong). Produces slightly less HP, but torque is up a bit. I believe it's the Continental turbo.

@@gabrieldetwiler7078 Thanks for the detail Gabe!
I think it has a smaller crank and some other things.
does this type of modification void the manufacturer warranty?
I do not know.
@@DadWagonwill it work with a 2014 tiguan
Did you put 93 octane in it for this test?
Yep!
will this work on a 2014 tiguan?
im running this on my mk7.5 sportwagen. and run it at higher boost setting. its expensive fuel wise but worth it.
Loved the vid!
I know there are 2 positions on the module for race fuel or premium fuel. But is there a position for stock?
What happens when you run regular 87 octane gas with the module. Do you get any power increase or do you have to have 91 octane to see the gains?
That’s exactly what I’m wondering and I haven’t been able to find an answer, I might have to email neuspeed themselves

Should tune the DSG! Very important
great vid
Doesn’t kick in sooner it just piggybacks and adds boost …
Tiguan R all the way! These solutions are not bad I guess
Unfortunately they don't offer one in NA
