Tuning guide for 2.0L EA888 Gen.3 up to 245 hp

Even more power for your VW Golf GTI and others!

Tuning guide for EA888 Gen.3 engines with 190 – 245 hp as standard

Our guide will give you maximum performance for your Golf 7 GTI, for example. We provide you with all the tuning parts you need for a stable and professional tuning. If you go through all the performance stages, you can expect an incredible 550 hp final output and pure driving pleasure.

Installed in, for example:

  • VW Golf 7 GTI (AU)
  • VW Golf 7 GTI Performance (AU)
  • Seat Leon 3 (5F)
  • Audi TT (FV/8S)
  • Skoda Octavia (5E)
  • Skoda Octavia RS (5E)

Year of manufacture:

ab 2013

Engine codes for example:

  • CHHA
  • CHHB
  • CHHC
  • CZPB
  • DKTB
  • DKZA
  • DLBA

The values given are based on our experience with our Golf 7 GTI project with a 2.0L EA888 Gen.3 with 230 hp, engine code CHHA.

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! No Longlife oil. Better use our oil.
BAR-TEK® TIP!

We recommend to fill up with 102 octane fuel. This gives your engine more power because it knocks less! The turbocharger should not be too old. Engine should be in good condition. The base must be in good condition. Our tip is to install the GFB diverting valve. If you need new spark plugs anyway, it is best to buy our upgrade spark plugs directly.

You need that extra so that it will last:

To make sure you get the power to the road, you need a reinforced sport clutch. The original clutch cannot handle the increased torque. For DSG vehicles, we recommend our reinforced DSG clutch for torque over 500 Nm. This can transmit up to 700 Nm! For the optimal transmission oil temperature, it is necessary to install our transmission oil cooler kit. So you protect your DSG transmission from overheating! So that your engine oil does not overheat and always an optimal temperature and oil condition in your engine herscht, we recommend an oil cooler kit. To the oil cooler kit we recommend you to order our digital oil temperature gauge, so you have the oil temperature of your engine always at a glance.

BAR-TEK® TIP!

If you have already installed an upgrade intercoolerdownpipe and an upgrade high pressure pump, you can continue to use them. If not, these parts are essential! You can also get the matching software tuning from us. We are also happy to tune your car individually on our 1000 PS MAHA all-wheel dynamometer.

That's what you need to cool down your GTI:

If you want to get the full power out of your Golf 7 GTI, you must not forget the cooling system. Even a little extra performance puts a lot of strain on your engine! The thermal load increases and affects all areas of your GTI, even the transmission suffers under the new power. In the best case, the hard-earned power is reduced again, in the worst case, your engine suffers capital damage. To ensure that you can tune your engine safely and steadily, we have everything you need for perfect GTI cooling, from oil coolers, our RACE waterpump and all-aluminum water coolers to coolant additives. We also have everything you need for cooling DSG transmissions.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS

REAL CUSTOMERS, REAL REVIEWS

Ich habe bei BAR-TEK diverse Umbauten an meinem Audi machen lassen, unter anderem Einspritzdüsen, Ladeluftkühler, Motor- und Getriebesoftware inklusive Abstimmung. Der Wagen geht jetzt deutlich besser und haltbar ist es auch! Ich bin von dem Ergebnis absolut überzeugt und würde jederzeit wieder bei ihm was machen lassen!

Oliver Hartschwager

Ich bin seit 2015 Kunde bei BAR-TEK Motorsport und restlos begeistert! Bei meinem ersten Besuch habe ich „nur“ meinen G-Lader überholen lassen. Ich war so begeistert von dem Service und der Kompetenz des Teams, dass ich seitdem nirgendwo anders hingehe. Ich lasse regelmäßig meinen Lader überholen, Leistungssteigerungen und diverse andere Einbauarbeiten und Verbesserungen (bspw. Chip, Nockenwelle, Fächerkrümmer, Shifter) durchführen und habe das Team von BAR-TEK immer hinter mir. Sie stellen mir meinen Wagen nicht nur „fertig“ und abholbereit hin, sondern halten alles transparent bei der Übergabe und erklären alles haargenau, sodass auch „Autolaien“ verstehen, wo wie was gemacht wurde. Das Team erkennt Mängel direkt und erledigt sie zusätzlich ohne Auftrag! So einen Service erlebt man sonst nirgendwo!

Oliver Missal

Ich kann BAR-TEK einfach nur weiterempfehlen, habe schon viele Teile bestellt. Der Kundenservice bei Anfragen oder Beratungen zu einem geplanten Umbau sind TOP. Auch die hauseigenen Produkte von BAR-TEK sind qualitativ sehr hochwertig und können ohne schlechten Gewissen gekauft werden.

Florian Zerobin

Ich verfolge BAR-TEK schon länger und war schon vor meiner Bestellung begeistert von der Marke. Da ich auf der Suche nach einer legal offenen Ansaugung war, wollte ich es mit der von BAR-TEK versuchen und eins kann ich euch sagen, ich wurde nicht enttäuscht. Die Passgenauigkeit war erstaunlich, der Einbau hat nicht einmal 30 Minuten gedauert und vom Geräuscherlebnis brauchen wir gar nicht reden, einfach ein Traum. Jetzt kann mein Cupra endlich durchatmen, danke BAR-TEK!

Patrik

My engine is completely rebuilt by BAR-TEK to get over 620 HP. Now already more than 2,5 years with this engine and it feels as good as new! Absolute top quality work from Bar-Tek motorsport! I Highly recommend them!
