Title: Mk6 k04 gti
Post by: Gtiain on March 20, 2013, 04:59:52 pm: Are the power gains similar to a mk5 k04 gti? Thought there maybe a little advantage with the tsi engine.

Any thoughts welcome :happy2:

Post by: GTI5 on March 20, 2013, 05:37:30 pm: Close to 370 BHP possible.

Should also be cheaper as the stock fuel system is good for the tune unlike TFSI...and no cam follower worries :happy2:

EDIT: DV relocate not required either unlike TFSI KO4 conversion.

The IHI is actually smaller than KO3 but the TSI head flows better, it also spools quicker being smaller.
