Yes they are good. Search button will give all the answers, as covered loads before. General thought is the 170bhp is worse with DMF issues but a delete solves that. Quite tuneable and again search says 200+ is possible With the 130bhp easy achieving the 170 mark on a map.

Read common issues with the mk5 in general. Hope that helps.

Think you mean DPF  :wink: im running a 170 with DFP delete with 205bhp and 320lbs ft

The 140 version will make 170+ all day long if the turbo holds up......
