If you live in the UK and have already opted for the 140HP instead of the 170HP version of VW's 2.0TDi for the Scirocco, then you may want to look at the new ECU upgrade from APS. The tuner's Stage One kit which is limited to the revised map for the 2.0 turbo diesel's engine management system, lifts output from 140HP and 236 lb.ft to a more potent 170 horsepower and 292 lb.ft of torque.APS claims that fuel economy is unaffected by the ECU upgrade, so a combined figure of 55mpg UK (44.8mpg US or 5.2 lt/100km) can be expected.
The APS Stage One kit for the VW Scirocco 2.0 TDi is priced in Britain at £499, including fitting and VAT, and is covered by a guarantee for the balance of the manufacturer's warranty.
