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

*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!

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers.  The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience.  So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf.  In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...

Volkswagen Group Records Best Ever First-Half-of-Year Sales

With 5.5 million vehicles in customer hands after the first six months of 2018, the Volkswagen Group is seeing the best performance of its history. Group deliveries increased significantly in all core regions,” said Fred Kappler, head of sales for the Group. “Our core brands recorded strong growth in the first half year.” For the year-to-date, all of Volkswagen’s brands had sales bumps. MAN, SEAT, and Skoda led the sales charge with performances 24%, 17% and 11% better than the previous year. The big sellers, too, had strong sales periods, with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Audi, and Volkswagen sales rising 3.5%, 4.5% and 6.3% respectively. That last figure is particularly good new for the board, since Volkswagen alone sold more than 3 million vehicles in the first half of 2018. As Kappler stated, the numbers are equally good when you break sales down by region. Brazil and Russia were the most improved markets (22% and 20%, respectively), while strong sales in Europe and China (u...
