Hello mate engine code agu is the earlier model 1998-2001 i think. these models come standard with the ko3 turbo in them and are mainly in 5 door models. Later models like auq have the ko3s in them same turbo realy but the ko3s is more tunable with a good remap. I have a agu but just had the ko3 replaced by a ko3s!!!!! :grin: plus the agu models normally come standard with the full recaro front and back seats :smiley:
