Golf 7 R and Co.: How to increase performance in four levels

The values given are based on our experience with a 2.0L EA888 Gen.3 with 300 PS, engine code CJXC.
Stage 1
increased efficiency:
+ 60 PS
+ 80 Nm
Final output:
360 PS
460 Nm
This is what your engine needs to have a long shelf life:
You don't need any additional components here. Simply install and have fun! Instead of Longlife oil, it is better to use our oil.
BAR-TEK® TIP!
We recommend refuelling with 102 octane fuel. This gives your engine more power because it produces less knocking! The turbocharger should not be too old and the engine should be in good condition. The basis must be in good condition. We also strongly recommend installing the GFB air recirculation valve.

Stage 2
increased efficiency:

+ 110 Nm
Final output:
380 PS
490 Nm
You need that extra to make it last:
For this performance level, we recommend our upgrade intercooler. This means you always have full power, even at warm temperatures.
BAR-TEK® TIP!
As a mega tip: With the BAR-TEK® Open Air Intake you have up to 15 PS more power. The following also applies here: 102 octane is mandatory and the GFB recirculation air valve must not be missing!

Stage 3
increased efficiency:
+ 150 PS
+ 180 Nm
Final output:
450 PS
560 Nm
You need that extra so that it will last:
You will need a reinforced sports clutch so that you can transfer the power to the road. The original clutch cannot handle the increased torque. For DCT vehicles, we recommend our reinforced DCT clutch if the torque exceeds 500 Nm. This can transmit up to 700 Nm! For the optimum transmission oil temperature, it is necessary to install our transmission oil cooler kit. This protects your DCT gearbox from overheating! We recommend an oil cooler kit to ensure that your engine oil does not overheat and that your engine always has the optimum temperature and oil quality. In addition to the oil cooler kit, we recommend ordering our digital oil temperature gauge, so that you always have an overview of your engine's oil temperature.
BAR-TEK® TIP!
If you have already installed an upgrade intercooler, downpipe and an upgrade high-pressure pump, you can continue to use these. You should also have the software customised by your trusted tuner.

Stage 4
increased efficiency:
+ 220 PS
+ 210 Nm
Final output:
520 PS
590 Nm
You need that extra so that it last a long time:
In stage 4, you need forged pistons and steel connecting rods from our High Boost ULTI kit, in which all parts are optimally matched to each other. The kit copes perfectly with extreme performance and takes your tuning to a whole new level. The same applies to the cylinder head High Boost ULTI Kit, which contains everything your cylinder head needs for maximum performance. You will also need the upgrade conversion kit for the fuel pump to supply the engine with the best possible fuel and prevent it from running lean. It is also advisable to install the upgrade high-pressure pump.
BAR-TEK® TIP!
You can also choose an even larger turbo for even more boost, the rest of the parts remain as recommended.

This is how you improve the cooling:
If you want to get the full power out of your 2.0L EA888 Gen.3, you must not forget the cooling system. Even a little extra power puts a lot of strain on your engine! The thermal load increases and affects all areas of your car, even the transmission suffers under the new power. At best, the hard-earned power is reduced again, at worst your engine suffers major damage. To ensure that you can tune your engine safely and steadily, we have everything you need for perfect cooling, from oil coolers and all-aluminium water coolers to RACE water pumps and cooling water additives. We also have everything you need for cooling DCT gearboxes.

The perfect turbocharger for your tuning project
The turbocharger is one of the most important tuning measures of all, as there is huge performance potential in the compression ratio. This is why you will find all the turbos from the guides and suitable alternatives in this special turbo guide, for example if you prefer a specific manufacturer. We have also compiled a lot of information for you on the subject of turbochargers, which you should take a look at. In addition to the detailed turbo tips, there is a page on running in engines correctly, turbo lag and, of course, our 14 turbo rules.

Race Engines from BAR-TEK®
You can also get everything completely ready: Our racing engines are designed for the highest performance. The components included are of course perfectly matched, finely balanced and suitable for the highest speeds. Because we use components from motorsports, for example forged pistons and steel connecting rods, our racing engines have a high stability.
The performances indicated here are based on our experience and can only indicate a tendency. Each engine is different and many factors such as fuel used, software tuning or mileage play an important role in the maximum power to be achieved. That is why we always test our vehicles and parts on our 1000 PS performance test bench.
