Volkswagen Amarok Stage 1: 163 hp → 205 hp
Factory output for the Volkswagen Amarok 2.0 TDI CR is 163 hp and 400 Nm. A Stage 1 remap targets 205 hp and 455 Nm — 42 hp (+26%) and 55 Nm (+14%).
Those are the figures we work to on this engine. They are a starting point, not a promise: the number we hand back is the one your car makes on our dyno, measured before and after on the same day, in the same conditions.
Where the 55 Nm shows up
On a diesel the useful change is torque, not peak power. Going from 400 Nm to 455 Nm fills in the mid-range, which is where a Volkswagen Amarok actually spends its time — pulling from 1,800 to 3,000 rpm in a high gear, overtaking without dropping two gears, towing or carrying weight without the engine falling on its face.
Peak power moves too, 163 hp to 205 hp, but you will feel the 55 Nm far more often than the 42 hp.
What Stage 1 involves on a Volkswagen Amarok
We read the ECU, log the car as it stands, and put it on the dyno to confirm the 163 hp baseline — a tired or faulty engine gets diagnosed before it gets mapped, not after.
The calibration is written for your car, not pulled from a file library. We adjust fuelling, ignition timing, injection timing and boost, then re-run the dyno to verify the 205 hp and 455 Nm figure and check knock, lambda and temperatures under load.
Turnaround is same-day for most cars. Stock file is archived, so the car can go back to standard whenever you want.
Which Volkswagen Amarok this covers
These figures are for the 2.0 TDI CR as fitted 2010–2016. Engine code and ECU type decide what is possible, so send us the registration or VIN and we will confirm the exact variant before you book anything.
