Recommended work along the upgrade to CP3 HPFP

[Flybuzz]

Hello all,
I'm thinking to upgrade to CP3 pump. Should've done it when doing the timing belt, but didn't do my research well
So, I wanted to ask, if I'm going for the trouble of the upgrade to CP3, what else should be done at the same time?
And another question. My 2015 tdi sportswagen runs on Malone tune with all dpf/egr components intact. Will I need to do any re-tuning after the fuel pump upgrade?
Any other advices of something I missed to mention?

Curious as to why your "upgrading" to CP3?

imo, dont do the CP3 until you are due for a timing belt again. just stay on top of your fuel filter maintenance

Are there reliability issues on the 2015's?.....I didn't think there were any issues?

It has a CP4.. so the same reason as any other VW CR TDI

I'm pretty sure the 2015s use a 2 piston CP4.2, apparently lower failure rates. I'm unsure if the CP3 conversion will even fit a 2015

it is the 1 piston design.

2 piston is bespoke to "high output" TDI's like the CUAA

regardless, a CP3 does fit as seen here;

CP3 pump install - it’s installed

For anyone that’s installed a CP3 pump on your CRUA, did you swap over a different pump gear? The kit I got from dark side has an adapter for a gear that bolts on to it but my factory gear does not bolt on. It’s two pieces but seems the first piece is pressed on to the shaft of the pump while...

even the 2 piston cp4's are vunerable to the same issues as the 1 piston.. the design is fundamentally the same, thus flawed
