can someone plz tell me if there is any difference between the 1.8t engines across the vag range?
i know some are drive by wire and some are drive by cable
but is there a difference between the 150bhp engine and the 180bhp engines?
are the blocks, heads and internals all the same?
-
No they are different mate agu as bigger internals with small turbo aum as ko3s turbo which is better for mapping as it takes more power as for the rest I ain't got a clue but I'm sure someone will follow up the rest :wink:

ok so what i can gather from some searching the net is that my engine (AGU) is the 150 bhp engine but has a bigger ported head and is better for making more power with the correct mods, turbo and map???
i thot the factory 180bhp engines would have the better base engine??
-
you have the best engine code :wink: :smiley: :cool:

lol i had a 1.8t ibiza cupra (2005) and was running a stage 2 but was forever breaking down lol, so i sold it and a few months later i missed the power and ended up buying a cheap golf as a second car/toy. im toying with the idea of stripping it out.
just trying to figure out the differences between the engines and best for power gains :evil:

loads of info all over this site mate
make a brew or open a beer sit back and enjoy the read :smiley:

Mines pretty bulletproof. even pushing well into the 230s and 240s once finished.
Never had anything go wrong with it.
You just need a well looked after one, and it will reward you.
