What It Is
A complete hardware and tuning package for the BRM engine in the 2005.5-2006 Jetta, built for the DSG automatic transmission. It's designed to push output past 150 hp, roughly 57% over stock, using a proven combination of parts rather than a piecemeal build.
What's Included
Why the Tuning Is Different
Kerma calibrates this tune individually for each customer's specific parts combination rather than offering generic staged tunes. The goal is tighter boost control than a typical aftermarket tune, aimed at better drivability, turbo lifespan, and reliability from the first drive, along with more usable torque, less smoke, and lower exhaust gas temperatures. Free tuning updates are included if you add parts down the road.
A Note on the DSG
Since this kit is built for the DSG automatic, there's no clutch option to select at checkout, unlike the 5-speed manual version of this kit. The DSG transmission handles the added power without a clutch swap.
Installation
Kerma works with both authorized installers and DIY builders, offering free tech support and how-to guides. Call ahead to plan your install, or work with a TDI-savvy technician.
