Hello everyone friend of mine just got a 09 plate scirocco and wants to know the best mods to do to it. It the tsi engine in the sciroccos best than the 1s in the mk5 gti
Many thanks Rich

He should join a scirocco forum :rolleye:
-
I've told him :signLOL: he just asked me to find out 1st tho. Are they better enginesoon in them?
-
I have the same engine. It all depends on how far he wants to go. I have a k04 on mine but previously had it stage to with all the ancillary bolt ons

Then it's a better built k04 engine :happy2: get your mate to get his :booty: into gear and start the modding :signLOL: I don't really like the shape :sad1: but interiors ace :love:
-
He got the 2.0 tsi engine
-
With the K04 the tsi is a different beast I can assure you. If you're local your welcome to see

Get him to change the timing Chain tensioner as like mine they fail other wise and that is a proper c#nt as it trashes the engine

London me too :signLOL: Bet it's a monster of a car.
what's the bhp on those?.
-
It's 210bhp if I'm not mistaken
-
Thanks not much in it then :signLOL:
Thought it'd be at least 230 if not more.
-
I think the Scirocco R packs 260bhp.
-
That's more like it 260+ and then a full exhaust system remap should set things right :signLOL:

Im curious with this. Once you get them changed, is there any chance it will be happening again after certain miles/time? or are there any updated and improved parts to completely avoid this ticking bomb issue?

My K04 converted is slightly over 400hp and 430ibft

Once changed to the latest version they are safe from explosion

But isn't that one the same engine as Edition 30 / MK6 R / 8P S3? (EA113). I get confused with all the TFSI / TSI variations!
I think the main difference is EA113 has VVT on the intake only, EA888 has it on both cams. I think EA888 also went back to a separate MAF instead of burying the bloody thing in the engine cover!

Yeah I think it is, though I think the MK6 R somehow eeks another 5bhp out of it. All gets very confusing with the variations I have to admit!

tell your mate to get a turboback exhaust, intake and a stage 2 map.
knocking around 300bhp or just under it which is nothing to be mad at
