Unitronic Stage 3 Dual Pulley Upgrade Kit for 3.0 TFSI – Now Available

Unitronic® is pleased to announce the release of its Stage 3 Crank Pulley Upgrade Kit for the 3.0TFSI* engines. Featuring an impressive increase
to 493 HP/441 lb-ft of torque, Unitronic’s Stage 3 Crank Pulley Upgrade Kit includes its 187 mm Crank Pulley, 7PK1300 Belt, and most importantly, its Stage 3 Dual Pulley Performance Software calibration. This can be purchased as an Upgrade Kit for users who already have Unitronic’s Stage 2+
Supercharger Drive Pulley Kit or it can be purchased as a complete kit with the Supercharger Drive Pulley. Unitronic's Stage 3 Dual Pulley Performance Software calibration is engineered specifically for use with both its Supercharger Drive and Crank Pulleys to ensure maximum performance is achieved while maintaining complete OEM-like reliability and drivability.

Unitronic strongly recommends combining its Stage 3 Dual Pulley Upgrade with an effective Supercharger Cooling System/Heat Exchanger Upgrade to ensure maximum performance can be achieved and can be achieved repeatably. Through development and testing, Unitronic observed up to a 30 hp variance in engine output based on operating conditions, while using the stock (OEM) heat exchanger, as a result of increased intake air temperatures and associated temperature-based corrections to boost and ignition timing. Upgrading the Supercharger Cooling System/Heat Exchanger with an effective upgraded unit will lead to an overall decrease in intake air temperatures, allowing for cooler, more dense air to be ingested by the engine and therefore, no temperature based ECU corrections, leading to better overall performance that can be sustained for longer periods of time where the stock cooling system/heat exchanger would otherwise fall short, suffering from heat soak very quickly when turning the supercharger at such high speeds.

Unitronic is actively developing and testing solutions to address the stock (OEM) Cooling System/Heat Exchangers/Intercoolers, as we reached the limit on the stock components at these power levels. Unitronic will continue to develop a Supercharger Cooling System/Intercooler solution to allow for us to further develop the 3.0TFSI platform for an even greater increase in engine output.

FEATURES
• 187 mm Crank Pulley
• 6061-T6 Aluminum construction
• Black anodized finish
• TDC marking for easy install
• 7PK1300 belt
• Genuine Audi crankshaft bolts included

*Available for B8/B8.5 S4/S5 and SQ5 models only currently. Peak engine output will vary based on the maximum engine speed limit. Support for C6 A6, C7 A6/A7, A8, Q5, and Q7 is coming soon!

Watch: The Story of the Ads that Made VW Big in America

The ads for the original Beetle are almost as famous and well-loved as the Beetle itself. Looking back now it’s easy to forget, though, just how easily things could have wrong. A new short from Dial M Films tracks the history of those early Volkswagen ads that sold America on the people’s car. The story, of course, begins with the visionary agency that made the ads: Doyle Dane Bernach (DDB). As a popular agency for Jewish products, no agency was more aware of the implications of Volkswagen, and no one, it seems, was more skeptical of the brand than DDB. “Remember Those Great Volkswagen Ads?” from Dial M Films on Vimeo . William Bernbach, though, was adament that the firm take the client, probably as a way of attracting other lucrative automotive clients. Saddled with a client that he didn’t want, art director Helmut Krone says in the film that he originally came up with ads that were all wrong. Krone tried to do what other manufacturers did and was intent on selling the Beetle ...

Watch: The Stig Drives (nearly) Seven Generations of Golf GTI

With Volkswagen announcing “major” updates to the Golf, it seems an appropriate time to look back on what we’ve had so far. And who better to guide us through the rich history of the most popular European car ever made than Ben Collins, the former Stig? Some say he’s never met a GTI he doesn’t love, and that he can’t grow any of his own facial hair. All we know is … Ben Collins is actually a pretty solid presenter. Working his way through seven generations of the GTI (skipping over the Mk6) Collins tells us a little bit about each one and matches each mark to its corresponding facial hair craze. The Mk1 GTI for instance, is light and quick, but can lose traction under hard acceleration (in heavy rain). Despite that, Collins calls the Mk1 a “pure gem.” The Mk4, meanwhile, is a powerful return to form after the perhaps too sensible Mk3. Collins ends in the only way he could, with the Mk7, which accelerates faster than a Lamborghini Countach and is all kinds of wonderful. Watch, ...
