A lot of people on here  would say there less tunable than the 1.8T and dearer to run but they sound lovely, with the recent reliabilty issues with the a lot of 1.8T on here personally i would consider one they tend to be higher spec too  :smiley:

If you can afford to run it have it  :cool: sounds awesome and with a re-map they can make 220bhp
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

A mate of mine has got one, sounds nice. He is on about a turbo conversion from the states. Should be circa 300bhp. He did a turbo conversion on his last car so theres a good chance this will happen!
