RacingLine OEM+ Software – Volkswagen Arteon 2.0TDI (2018+) – 2.0TDI CR 150

RacingLine OEM+ Software for 2.0 TDI EA288 150 PS

The RacingLine OEM+ Stage 1 software for the 2.0 TDI EA288 150 PS is one of the most meaningful upgrades for this engine if you want more torque, better response, and a more confident feel during daily driving.

This is not an aggressive, universal remap, but a precisely developed OEM+ calibration designed to improve how the car accelerates, responds, and feels in real-world conditions. The goal is more power and torque, but with preserved factory feel, smoothness, and predictability.

What do you get?

• More power: from 150 PS to approximately 190 PS
• More torque: from 320 Nm to approximately 415 Nm
• Stronger mid-range pull – the most important area for daily driving
• More confident acceleration when overtaking and climbing
• Better pedal response without unnecessary nervousness
• OEM+ character – more dynamics, but with a factory feel
• Option to revert to factory software if needed

Why RacingLine OEM+?

RacingLine develops its OEM+ software by working on the engine's control logic itself, rather than through superficial universal settings. This is what allows the car to feel stronger and more responsive without losing its balance.

For the 2.0 TDI EA288 150 PS, good calibration makes the biggest difference in real driving – when overtaking, highway driving, climbing, and normal daily use. The additional torque makes the car more elastic and easier to drive, without changing its practical and reliable character.

Are hardware changes needed?

No mandatory hardware changes are required for OEM+ Stage 1. The software is suitable for cars with standard hardware. For an even better feel, RacingLine recommends optional intake system upgrades, such as a high-flow air filter or cold air intake.

How does it feel after the software?

After installation, the car feels significantly more elastic and confident. Acceleration is lighter, response is more direct, and the additional torque makes daily driving more pleasant and relaxed.

This is the type of upgrade that doesn't turn the car into an aggressive project, but rather makes it more complete – exactly in the spirit of the OEM+ philosophy.

DSG software – a recommended addition

For cars with a DSG gearbox, OEM+ TCU Dynamic Software is a highly recommended addition to Stage 1. It helps the transmission work better with the increased torque and improves the overall feel during acceleration, shifting, and dynamic driving.
