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 intercooler, downpipe 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.
