I am about to change my FR130 to an FR150.. (Despite having stupid safety features and more software bugs than I can keep count of)
Question: Anyone know if the Turbo and intercooler setup is the same between the two? and if it is difference, does the 150 have more tuning capability?

The turbo is definitely different between the two, no idea about the intercooler or tuning.

Hello

130 has an variavel geometry turbo, like actual diesel engines, 150 has a normal turbo with fixed geometry, in terms of tunning capability for what i've seen tunners are extracting more or less the same 180/190 hp from each, if 150 has dsg they have to limit the torque in order to mantain gearbox fiability, however it´s able to deal to the max of 350nm, with dsg remap, although tunners dont go much farther then 330nm, at least here in portugal.
If you go for 150 manual gearbox with big turbo and intercooler you can extract 220+hp.
