Title: What TIP do I need???
Post by: cooki on 22 August 2012, 16:55
I've tried the search engine to no avail.

I've got the 1.8T AUM and I'm after a TIP,so do all the golf engine codes use the same tip or do they differ at all??
Thanks in advance :)

Creation motorsport ones are fine. Well made and 5 ply iirc..

Doesn't the agu pipe have one less outlet?

Possibly! I haven't looked in a log time but I swear they are different as the maf is a different size too are are te k03 and k03s the same inlet size?

Yes, they have the same size inlet so it doesn't matter whether you have a k03 or 3s if you need a tip, it's more down to getting the right one for the engine code.

I'm pretty sure it's because the agu doesn't have esp.

AGU and AUM have the DV and PCV valve in opposite locations.

Also, 2001 AUM's don't have the extra connection, but some AUM's from 02 onwards seem to have an additional connection at the top near the MAF. Something ESP related I think, but I've never been interested enough to confirm
