I recently bought a full delete kit for my 2014 Touareg TDI and got the tune through rawtek since it was similar in price to the tune I wanted directly from malone off their new tunezilla. Only to find out after the fact that if you want any add-ons like dynamic idle, CP3 Pump etc. you have to then reach out again to malone directly to get those and pay for a retune. It's a whole bunch of BS when instead you can just skip that go directly to malone and have it done nearly instantly if you have a tool already. There is NO benefit to going through rawtek and only the added cost in time, frustration, and hurting wallet.
Whatever you do when tuning your diesel don't buy your tune from Rawtek

I just went directly with Malone. I hate dealing with any sort of middle man if I can avoid it. Also, Malone is in my backyard.

Can't dynamic idle a 3.0 so no need to stress over that. No way to adapt a cp3 to your 2014 yet, so no need to worry about that.
CP3’s are incompatible with later model TDI?? I was very much looking forward to going Euro Turbo / CP3 / DPF SCR EGR delete when the time came (in 4, 5 years so maybe it’ll be possible by then? Not that tons of aftermarket development is in the works for Touareg...)

The injection pumps moved to the rear of the car in later models, nobody has developed a way (that I can think of) to stick a cp3 back there

Malone doesn't care what is or isn't possible, they simply know what changes need to be procured for it to work

ah I see
Contact Tunezilla and ref your tune info , they had no problem taking money for additional features and pulled my tune Rawtek brokered immediatly
btw 2012 CATA is the last year for the CP3 conversion (that I’ve found) but requires an entire EGR removal and special bypass for coolant ..
