    From Keith@APR - Head of our new APR owned operation in the UK.

    Hello Everyone,

    There has been quite a bit of a stir going on as of late regarding APR's v3.1 ECU Recalibration for factory equipped Ko4 turbocharger engines.

    APR has recently released v3.1 for all ED30/Pirelli Edition's, SLC R's, Golf R's, Scirocco R's, TT-S' and S3's developed, tested and approved for the UK market.

    APR UK's Golf R was the primary development car so we will start with the results of it thus far.

    2010 VW Golf R DSG Stage 2+

    APR v3.1 ECU Recalibration
    APR High Pressure Fuel Pump
    VWR Induction System
    VWR Turboback Exhaust
    VWR Anti-roll Bars
    VWR Lower Engine Mount
    VWR Coilover Suspension
    VWR Braking System
    Haldex Performance Controller

    Our first timed testing event was a few weeks ago at Santa Pod Raceway with yours truly behind the wheel:



    Some of you may have seen Jonny's thread here http://www.vagoc.co.uk/vb/showthread...0722&showall=1 and as we had planned to run the Golf R at the MLR 30-130mph day we ended up at Bruntingthorpe instead.



    With Jonny Cocker behind the wheel and some help with the launches from a wet surface we were able to achieve the following:

    0-60 MPH - 3.5 Seconds!


    Quarter Mile - 11.9 @ 115.5 MPH!


    As we finish up our dyno installation project at our office in Milton Keynes, we will release Official Power Figures for v3.1 but here are some unofficial results in the meantime:

    SEAT Leon Cupra R Stage 2+ APR v3.1 APR HPFP in Denmark:



    Please feel free to update this thread with any other performance measurements you may have achieved with APR's v3.1.* Eventually I will build a database in this thread to document all of the various dyno graphs, 0-60 times, 1/4 mile times, etc.

    Arin,

    I posted this in the FB pic but didnt get anything

    Is this a UK specific tune? Or is it the same 3.1 for both countries?
