Up today we're testing the stock-ish CJAA compared to the Stage 0.5 and stage 2 from Tunezilla (formerly known as malone). This was a short term test to compare power gain as well as using the new Flashzilla Pro flashing device and Tunezilla Portal.

More testing to come.

Awesome hope you enjoy it, mild tune on these cars make them feel like they should’ve came from the factory that way.

Hey Josh fantastic video as always! I’d be very interested in seeing a video comparing fuel economy between the 0.5 and stage 2. I’m getting close to pulling the trigger on a delete kit for improved reliability and fuel economy, so I’d be curious to see the difference. Also, what’s your take on the dynamic idle? Does it make that much of a difference? Thanks!

@JoshsJettas 5 ай бұрын

Im curious as well, I’m figuring if you don’t use that extra power and drive nicely it’ll be similar but we’ll see. As far as dynamic idle, for warm up it definitely won’t hurt but I’m not sure how much of a difference. I do find it makes the dsg touchy until it s warmed up as rpm’s don’t drop once your in gear.

I did a Kerma Tune on the 2.0 TDI Passat as well as their tune on the DSG. I felt it was worth the money

I have stage 3 tune with hybrid cr170 turbo. It's nothing like it was stock lol. Saving for new clutch now so I can really test it out.

@JoshsJettas 5 ай бұрын

I would of liked to go larger turbo on this one, I just got a used one so cheap I couldn’t justify not using it.

Dumb question: I removed my DPF (Rawtek Eco) today but haven't run my tune as my pipe has not arrived. Do I need the DPF/EGR/Swirl tune, and the EGR delete? Stage 0.5, by the way. Thanks!

@JoshsJettas 5 ай бұрын

Yes click the stage 0.5, then check the dpf/egr/swirl delete and the egr delete and you should be set

@JoshsJettas do they let add that for free?

@JoshsJettas 4 ай бұрын

Yes it’s free with a tune. They have other add-ons that would be an extra $99

Is gutting the components an option over purchasing downpipe and exhaust?

@JoshsJettas Ай бұрын

Yes, 2 reasons I’d advise against it is 1) it’ll need cut up because of the inlet and outlet angles, 2) the dpf and cat are worth $500 usd to recycle so that’s a fair chunk towards a shiny new downpipe.

Hey Josh, If I do a stage 2 tune to my 2014 Passat TDI, can I keep all my emissions stuff on? If so, will it compromise the emissions components?

@whoopiniron14 5 ай бұрын

Yes. From the TuneZilla catalog, just don't select the "REMOVE DPF, ADBLUE, EGR, AND/OR INTAKE SWIRL FLAP" option. You still must tune the DSG though.

@JoshsJettas 5 ай бұрын

Yup, they even have up to stage 4 emissions intact. It’ll probably decrease def usage, as far as compromising emissions components you should be fine. The Passats don’t seem to have the dpf issues that the cjaa do.

@apespacecowboy6993 5 ай бұрын

Thank you, guys, for all your information. I really appreciate it. I didn't think i'd be able to do a stage 2 or better. Is there anything I could do to limit the emissions that would not be seen or detected that could help with the performance?

@apespacecowboy6993 5 ай бұрын

Is an intake worth doing on the TDI, and if so, which one? I was looking at the APR intake.

I have a 2014 passat and I've heard intakes aren't worth it. Stock is your best bet. @@apespacecowboy6993

If you install the egr block plate would you need to disable the egr by unplugging and need the egr light suppressor?

@JoshsJettas 4 ай бұрын

It can stay plugged in with/without the blocker but yes you’ll need the tune

Dynamic EGR aka Pre-Dieselgate 😂 For the record I driven Stage 0.5, 1, and 2 for about 2 weeks each and you can get the same FE between 1 and 2 depending on the driving habits. But the Stage 2 gives a little more go and smiles. If the turbo ever goes out, upgrade to a bigger one and Stage 3 would make it a blast to drive 😁

@JoshsJettas 5 ай бұрын

I kind of figured the fuel wouldn’t differ much if you drive sensible. You sure get the itch to go bigger once your playing with it, it got a used turbo when I bought it so well see how long it lasts.

Hey quick question. Am i able to get the stage 2 tune without the dsg tune?

@JoshsJettas 5 ай бұрын

Tunezilla doesn’t recommend anything past the 0.5 without a dsg tune. The MR Tuning stage 2 was on the car prior for about 6k without dsg tuning.

@dshevchuk97 5 ай бұрын

@@JoshsJettasthis will be my first time tuning any vehicle. I'm assuming it's to preserve the transmission? Curious how the Malone tune can run without a DSG tune. I appreciate the information!

@JoshsJettas 5 ай бұрын

@@dshevchuk97 the car had a stage 2 MR Tuning from Quebec without dsg tuning, tunezilla which is formerly known as Malone from British Columbia requires a dsg tune past 0.5. I’m not sure if MR Tuning uses some trickery or limits torque to save needing the dsg tune but tunezilla/Malone said with the added torque on the stage 1 and 2 it’s required.

@richardheidelberg2736 4 ай бұрын

So, you are recommending Malone over MRTuning?

@JoshsJettas 4 ай бұрын

I wouldn’t say that, just a different option. I’m curious on the comparison between the main 2 “delete” tuning companies. I originally wanted to try lining another local car up that had a Malone tune on it to compare but tunezilla made it possible to compare on the same vehicle.
