VW's new twincharged - the way forward ?
Rich:
I have a 1.4 GT TSi 170ps - Supercharged and Turbocharged ( remaped to 198bhp )
Many of my mates when i got the car didnt believe it was both Supercharged and Turbocharged - even the mechanic said to me, "you can't have both mate. pop the bonnet, i'll see" :grin:
So, a 1.4 litre engine, does 0 - 60 7.6 seconds - what might a 2litre twincharged be ? :party:
VW's new TSI technology, latest 1.4-litre direct-injection petrol engine dual-charged ( came out in 2006 )
Some videos of acceleration
What are you thoughts ??? :drinking:

Twincharging ftw. VW's working a lot on forced induction engines as way to reduce engine size and increase power outputs efficiently. The superturbocharged 1.4 is a damn fine engine, as is the CCTA 2.0T (they're both based on the same tech of course, and derivatives of the EA888 "World Engine").
Twincharged 2.0 would be good :evilgrin:

I just found a DSG lauch control on the 170ps 1.4 GT TSi.

Twincharged is good IMO, but to get big power you cant beat single turbo or efficient supercharger. Twincharge systems can suffer due to making alot of heat with a sc and turbo. Twincharge will have its limits and they will be much lower than a turbo engine :happy2:
