I wouldn't say identical. Ultimatly the stage 1 tfsi is a faster car but i think upto 3 figures the stage 2 would give it a fright, but obviously could be wrong. I'm just trying to find you a link mate think it's INA engineering but don't quote me on it with a turbo development. I don't know the ins and outs as far as no more power being available from the hybrid turbo, but i think it's essentially not big enough for the extra boost over say 250bhp.
Shark Performance, do not have as high peak figures, apparantly because shark are more interested in reliability. The Custom Code WILD map that most of us have installed according to CC was mapped for aggresiveness and for peak figures and the only way to do that is for the map to have a very aggresive throttle response, apparantly the Shark map is a bit more controlled from what i have read. Which is no bad thing but i guess you go for what you feel is best
Dont mean to put a damper on things but custart code do well and truely suck!!!
They think there maps are unbeatable but every single event be it a rr day or 1/4 mile day get spanked left right and centre.
The fact that Revo decided not to tune this engine should tell you something sy
The new cr tdi thingy though is a different kettle of fish and can be tuned without problems.
Im deffinatly no expert on the diesel engine though, neither the tfsi come to think of it
Im pretty sceptical of the 240hp these put out after Andrewjb's managed 200 at the awesome gti day, carnt remember if he had any issues though.

Yeh as far as i'm aware Andrew does have a couple of problems, his downpipe is being replaced as it is broken, and turbo problems....
I know what your saying Rob, i'm in no way saying Custom Code are great with all there maps especially on petrol turbo VAG cars, but i'm fairly confident it's around the 230-240 mark after 4 different rolling road recordings.
It all depends what you want, it certainly is not the fastest car ever lol! BUt for a diesel it shifts and gives good economy if you can bare with the tractor noise lol
Down pipe is all fixed,Was leaking in a few places including around where a sensor goes in
As Dave @ Sere said if my Turbo had had it, it would just blow up,it feels fine tbh
Shark Performance have invited me to test out their DPF Delete map, but i havent got time and cba spending more money on it

Thats fair enough making a compromise between performance and economy. I couldnt remember wether there was anything wrong with his car but would explain the figures he got.
If your cars performing on the road then thats all that matters regardless of tuner.
If i was in Sy's position i would be going for the CR engine though if i had to choose just because its gonna be an improvment and sorting the dpf problem out.
nick reckons the shark performance DPF delete was notably better than the custom code map. I for one would never allow CC to work on my car, ever.
Id also consider a P-torque DPF delete, hear nothing but good things from either of these, yet CC has a long and prosperous list of unhappy customers

Yeh i am tempted with the Shark one if i get chance i might try it out, There maps are smokeless tho and i like my black smoke
and as james said to me... when have you ever seen a tuned TDI not making any black smoke! lol
He says it fuels more to keep the temps down thus the black smoke, other wise it would be bye bye turbo and injectors!
Im happy with my CC map and until another tuner delivers a leon TDI DeDPF to my front door to test that performs better than mine im sticking with proven CC DPF Delete!
Just my opinion
Agreed P torque have had all the dpf regens because they coud not crack hidden files in the dpf delete and no longer perform it i believe
