- MALONE TUNES DEALER , 2005 beetle tdi dsg, 1998 vw beetle 2.slow, 2003 beetle turbo s, 1998 beetle 2.0, 2006 beetle bew
Sorry for the long post,but here is the issue. I have a 2005 beetle with a bew, my father has an identical 2004 beetle bew and there is a definite power difference. His car is way stronger, I has checked torsion value on both, and they are -.5, neither car shows reflashes in vagcom, all boost references actual and requested are the same, maf numbers are equal.
My 2005 seems low on power, my car will bust off the 1-2 shift like his then my car starts going high rpms. My car is shifting at 4,500 rpm. My fathers car shift around 3500. Both cars have new dsg transmissions.
We have been side by side and his car will leave mine sitting there.
Here is what I know- no check engine lights, billet steel camshaft and lifters 5000 miles ago, fresh filters, just cleaned egr, my car makes 16lbs of boost, new asv valve, new in tank lift pump,car has 220,000 miles, my fathers has 210,000.
Both cars go 600+ miles on a tank of fuel.
Any help is appreciated
