Assessment
The Volkswagen Amarok 2.0 TDI CR 140hp is a 2.0L turbocharged diesel engine producing 140 BHP and 340 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 185 BHP and 420 Nm — a gain of around 45 BHP (32%) and 80 Nm (24%).
This engine scores highly for remap suitability, with gains weighted towards peak power — the improvement is most noticeable at higher RPM. The tuning headroom is classified as high, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.
From a technical perspective, the ECU is a Bosch EDC17 (likely), and the transmission is manual and dsg/s tronic automatics are common depending on model/engine. some dsg/dual-clutch gearboxes have torque management; calibration may be torque-limited..
Considerations: High tuned torque: check transmission torque capacity and service history.
Fuel economy note: possible improvement with conservative driving.
