MKVI GTI with over 500 wheel horsepower? Yep, HSTuning takes the 2.0 Turbo in the MKVI GTI to 501 whp

Yep, Skully, aka David@HStuning owns this. Race gas @ 35 PSI. I don't know if this is regular APR stage 3+ race gas file. Other similar setups with racegas only put down about 400whp on a dynojet as seen with the other threads. Still wish I knew more about this, but that's all I can shed for now.

I don't get why we don't have more details like the turbo used, etc.

There are a few GT30 cars local to me that have shown figures like that.

It is a APR stage 3+ kit. The tuning is what i'm guessing is the only difference. GT3071 turbo

Probably, but not on a GTI though.

certainly not on a TSI GTI.
Patrick_GLI hit 470..if they can figure out a fueling solution these TSI's are going to turn into highway monsters.

Even the FSI! only APR has hit 500 whp with the FSI and that's with the 2871 on race fuel stage 4! All other gt30 are barely in the 400whp club lol.

Gotta look into RAI motorsports with their kits. I wonder how their new injector testing is going on. I dont even know if Sammy is testing more of those LNF injectors either.

PS, your sig is priceless.

Dave is running a billet wheel gt3071, on race fuel, and using a manual boost controller set at 35lbs of boost, that's why. Standard APR tune has boost at 24-25 max, which is why there is a huge power increase.

I'm running same turbo, similar set-up and making 470ish whp, at 26-27 lbs of boost..I'm working on fueling upgrades as we speak, and still on stock head. 500whp should be easily attainable after I'm done, still at same boost levels. No need to raise boost.

And FSI motors have hit well over 500whp.. USP has built a mk5 gti making over 600whp, and there are various guys on the golf mkv forum making 570-580+ whp..

Thank you for that last bit of information. I didn't think the standard aprstage3+ 100 octane file will max at 35 PSI lol.

You're at 470whp on 100 octane right? standard stage 3+ file?

Yes FSI motors have hit well over 500whp. Not on a 3071 though. They're all using 3076 or bigger with custom tuning on ATP turbo kits lol.

Well thanks for this, good post and info.

Sounds like the FSI isn't a bad way to go if one wants to mod for bigger power as the fueling seems to be figured out.

Yea, to go above 500whp the FSI is the way to go. Hitting 400whp is easier and cheaper on the TSI.

Sure thing buddy. Not at all..standard max psi on APR stage 3+ is 23-24 psi..

yeah, 470 is on 100..not a standard file though.

no problem. FSI is nice because there are more options available for it, but not for long. Just an FYI for you guys, I've got fueling figured out for the TSI my turbo is currently maxxed out, so I can't make any more power..but I did figure out fueling, so that's no longer an issue.

whoa whoa whoa, do you have WHP for the max out on the turbo? what are you going to upgrade to next?

That's awesome you figured out fueling, a lot of people are going to be very happy about that.

Nice find man, that TSI upgrade is going to be huge. Yea the 3071 maxes out around 500whp as he hit. Next up is a GTX35r

right now i am maxed out at 473whp on my gt3071r. Every set-up will vary a little bit.

Next things are my head, which I've been waiting on forever now. After the head, a custom intake manifold, and then custom t3 exhaust manifold with a bigger turbo. And some other bits and ends that I'm still thinking about..

Do the RS4 injectors provide more fuel?

Yes, but they're only compatible with the FSI engine not the TSI engine in the MK6 GTI.
