For more information on CARB Exemption Orders for this vehicle as well as the actual letter check out our page CARB EO numbers for COBB VW Products
COBB Custom ECU Features:
These cars offer a variety of added features such as launch control and traction control. For more information check out our guide COBB Custom Features: Volkswagen MQB Platforms
Fuel Requirements:
Each map lists the minimum required octane. A higher octane fuel can be used safely on a map designed for lower octane. DO NOT use maps designed for higher octane with lower octane fuels. Top Tier gasoline should be used where available.
Maps designated with "91 OCT or 95 RON " are for use with 91 and 92 octane/95 RON fuel or better.
Maps designated with "93 OCT or 98 RON" are for use with 93 octane/98 RON fuel or better.
94 octane with 0% Ethanol should run the ACN91 Map.
Running 0% Ethanol Fuels
These maps are designed for E10 fuel (fuel with 10% ethanol content). For those who only have access to E0 fuel (fuel with 0% ethanol) it is recommended to use the "91" and "ACN91" octane versions of the maps and datalog the car to ensure your fuel is performing to the necessary level. This is especially important for those using Canadian 94 octane E0 fuel.
Stage1 Power Output
Stage 1
CARB EO: D-660-37
Intake Requirements :
stock air filter
Stock airbox with drop-in replacement,
COBB SF Intake 7V2150 (Carb under D-660-30)
COBB Redline CF Intake 7A1100 (CARB under D-660-30)
Exhaust Requirements: Stock exhaust or upgraded cat-back exhaust
Boost Target:
91 Octane 95 RON Minimum: ~21 psi peak boost pressure tapering down to 16~ psi as you approach the 6800RPM redline, +/- ~1.5psi.
93 Octane 98 RON Minimum: ~22 psi peak boost pressure tapering down to ~16psi as you approach the 6800RPM redline, +/- ~1.5psi.
Stage1+Flex Fuel
E## refers to the ethanol content (E) in % (##). So in the case of E10, it is 10% ethanol (Pump gas is typically between 7 & 15%)
Stage 1+Flex Fuel
Peak Power is achieved at 30% ethanol content
Intake Requirements :
stock air filter
Stock airbox with drop-in replacement,
COBB SF Intake 7V2150 (Carb under D-660-30)
COBB Redline CF Intake 7A1100 (CARB under D-660-30)
Exhaust Requirements: Stock exhaust or upgraded cat-back exhaust
Fueling Requirements: COBB Flex Fuel Upgrade Kit 3V2650
Boost Target:
91 Octane 95 RON Minimum: ~21 psi peak boost pressure tapering down to 16~ psi as you approach the 6800RPM redline, +/- ~1.5psi.
93 Octane 98 RON Minimum: ~22 psi peak boost pressure tapering down to ~16psi as you approach the 6800RPM redline, +/- ~1.5psi.
Ethanol: As much as an additional 2psi peak boost pressure with the most at 30% ethanol (E30)
These maps are optimized for use with a stock fuel system. The stock fuel system is maxes out with a blend of E30 (30% ethanol). Ethanol content beyond E30 will trigger a custom COB13 DTC, indicating power output has been reduced.
Stage2 Power Output
Stage 2
CARB EO: D-660-39
Intake Requirements :
stock air filter
Stock airbox with drop-in replacement,
COBB SF Intake 7V2150 (Carb under D-660-30)
COBB Redline CF Intake 7A1100 (CARB under D-660-30)
Exhaust Requirements: Stock exhaust or upgraded cat-back exhaust
Intercooler: AMS Performance Front Mount Intercooler Golf R (CARB under D-825-3)
Drivetrain: Upgraded Clutch or DSG Software Recommended
Boost Target:
91 Octane 95 RON Minimum: ~24 psi peak boost pressure tapering down to ~19 psi as you approach the 6800RPM redline, +/- ~1.5psi.
93 Octane 98 RON Minimum: ~25 psi peak boost pressure tapering down to ~21 psi as you approach the 6800RPM redline, +/- ~1.5psi.
Drivetrain Considerations
Running a stage 2 map on a vehicle without an upgraded clutch or DSG tune may cause slipping or damage to your clutch/clutch pack.
Non-Performance Maps
Anti-Theft Mode
Will not allow vehicle to start
Valet
Fuel Requirements: 91 octane or better
Intake Requirements: Stock airbox and stock air filter
Exhaust Requirements: Stock exhaust
Boost Targets: Mechanical minimum
Rev Limiter: 3000RPM
*Not intended for aggressive driving*
Closing Warnings and Precautions:
Use of inappropriate calibration/modification combinations will promote engine damage.
Top Tier gasoline should be used where available. Use of lower quality fuels can result in catastrophic engine damage.

Revision Notes:
Version | Notes |
|---|---|
v302 | Initial flex fuel release |
v301 | Fixed error in CCF RPM Limiter |
v300 | Updated for backend improvements. Fixed bug where CCF adjustments sometimes didn't work via AP |
v202 | Maps updated to pick up fixes for factory impulse combustion |
v201 | No calibration changes. This map has been updated to our Green Speed standard to ensure compliance with EPA and CARB regulations. This map eliminates unnecessary DTC suppression to ensure full environmental compliance. |
v200 | Consolidation of OEM ROMs into C0BB01. |
v110 | Made changes to traction control settings see: COBB Custom Features: COBB Traction Control on MK7 Vehicles |
v109 | Corrections to spelling |
v108 | (DSG 2015-2017) Corrected an issue in 2017 Golf R maps related to LC and FFS rev limits persisting during normal driving conditions. 2015 and 2016 Golf R maps updated for version parity. Custom maps need to be opened and re-saved in Accesstuner Pro HL version 2.0.0.0-15791 or newer. Removed model year from vehicle application name. |
v107 | (MT 2015-2017) Corrected an issue in 2017 Golf R maps related to LC and FFS rev limits persisting during normal driving conditions. 2015 and 2016 Golf R maps updated for version parity. Custom maps need to be opened and re-saved in Accesstuner Pro HL version 2.0.0.0-15791 or newer. Removed model year from vehicle application name. |
