Almost all of the build threads here originate out of Europe with a very few from Canada so I thought I would make a thread for the American version of the AUDI CR 3.0 TDI. As of right now, I have the following engine performance-oriented modifications:
1. APR Stage 1 ECU Tune;
2. DTUK TCU Flash;
3. AFE DryFlow Filter;
4. Magnaflow 3" Catback;
5. A5 BITDI OEM Intercooler; and
5. Darkside Custom high flow CP4.2 metering valve.
I recently sourced a GTB2260VZK from a 2012 A8 TDI and will have that ported and polished before installing it and retuning.
I am not interested in emissions deletes as I would encounter all sorts of issues with CARB here in California. I do have the newest version of the revised DPF installed a few months back and not only is it physically larger than the older versions but it certainly increased my exhaust note so I assume it flows at least a little better than the older versions.
It will take awhile before the turbo arrives from the UK and is ported and polished by the local turbo shop so stay tuned!
