Assessment

The Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI 231hp is a 3.0L turbocharged diesel engine producing 231 BHP and 500 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 320 BHP and 720 Nm — a gain of around 89 BHP (39%) and 220 Nm (44%).

This engine scores highly for remap suitability, with a balanced spread of gains across both power and torque — providing a noticeable improvement across the rev range. The tuning headroom is classified as high, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.

From a technical perspective, the ECU is a Bosch EDC17 (likely), and the transmission is manual and dsg/s tronic automatics are common depending on model/engine. some dsg/dual-clutch gearboxes have torque management; calibration may be torque-limited. at this torque level, transmission and driveline servicing history becomes especially important..

All figures shown are typical estimates based on aggregated Stage 1 data for this engine variant. Actual results depend on vehicle condition, mileage, and the chosen tuning method. We recommend discussing your specific vehicle with a qualified remap professional.
