Title: What to get after a Mk5 Gti ?
Post by: Upperoilcan on March 07, 2014, 04:23:10 pm
So I'm in line for a new motor in August,started looking already,I'm torn between a Audi A5 2.0 TFSI and a Mk 6 Gti,

Two questions,I'm assuming the Audi engine is the same as the Mk 5 Gti  so can be mapped much the same as the Golf ?

Are there many maps out there for the Mk 6. ? And does the mk6 have a Ko4 turbo ?

Cheers guys.

Ya,I saw the BHP figure is only 180 so assumed it was due to the weight.

Thats a bit poor,but I could take it to Rtech to get it boosted  :evilgrin:

Are there any maps our for the MK6?? Seriously?? It's been out since 2009, all the mainstream tuners are on it.

It's an IHI turbo which is a similar size to the K03. You get a little more power at stage 1 than a K03 GTI would. K04 conversions possible and are actually cheaper than doing on he mk5, as there is no need to upgrade the HPFP  :happy2:

Lol,to be fair I've not been looking into mods for the mk 6,I have every intention of mapping it should I go for one,but i will want R-Tech to do it. :happy2:

Looking further at the A5 it appears that the 2.0T drinks oil which can lead to the turbo failing,I've also had a BMW 330d put to me ...... Oh the choices  :wink:

It appears there are both 180HP and 211Hp, what makes them different is beyond me.

If you enjoy the way the golf drives and handles you won't like the a5.

They'll both handle like a bus compared to the golf.

Only engine i'd get in the a4 is the 3.2TFSI.

Been in my friends a5 3.0 tdi and it handles brilliantly for a car its size.

4wd, it eats corners at stupid speeds.
