Title: 1.8 turbo mods
Post by: pirate on 22 June 2006, 23:22: well im gettin slammed for wanting a golf, being told they are slow for 150bhp, felt fine to me tho.
anyway, just so i know, what mods would i need to reach near 200bhp? would it take alot? i take it the 150 is a low pressure turbo? whats the differance between the 150 and the 180bhp?
cheers, i havnt found one yet and im already thinking of mods lol

No, as above

pretty much yeah.

about 30bhp... sorry had to say it! Really the 180bhp engine uses the slightly large K03 sport turbo which doesn't drop off boost higher up the revs like the 150's K03. You can see slightly more power with the K03S and it's a bolt on upgrade.
