This 2010 Volkswagen Polo 1.6 TDI with a PCR2.1 ECU came in for a power calibration. Its quoted factory figures are 88 hp and 230 Nm. A baseline dyno run on the factory file could not be completed because the car entered limp mode. The video states that the DPF was physically absent and EGR operation had already been changed.

Results after calibration

After the ECU software was adjusted, the dyno showed approximately 124 hp and 286 Nm. These figures were compared with the quoted factory specifications because no pre-work dyno reading on the factory file was available. The video also shows a dyno run and an engine data check.

The result applies to this particular vehicle and its technical configuration; there is no baseline measurement on the factory file.
