Ok, never heard of that turbo before, is it any good? better than IHI20, equivalent or just VAG fitted a cheaper one?

Thank you, couldn't see anything to confirm the turbo model (but established its an IHI at least) but do love an exploded view workshop manual. Thanks.

HI, after a few days of searching i'm no nearer getting an answer, except Wikipedia, it seems most IZ MK2 Octavia's 2.0 TFSi's have the K03/K04 turbo? but i'm lead to believe mine has a IHI20 turbo as engine code is CCZA, can anyone advise what is actually fitted as looking at tuning parts and getting conflicting info. cheers

As said above, get a proper remap not an off the shelf / through the post remap, I had one from a reputable Diesel tuning company in Essex and sent it straight back after a week as it made no difference to my 08 vRS TDi. I even videoed it plugged in and removed and no one could tell the difference. I've also had a MK4 Golf TDI pd130 remapped on a Dyno & Road, in the past and it greatly improved it, I did have a milltek exhaust too and the thing flew.

HI, so I've been on here as a guest a few times before and have recently sold my mk II Octavia vRS Diesel after 3 years of relatively trouble free motoring, with a view to get a newer one with less miles and more toys, so after viewing a few dogs and one out of reach pricewise, I then brought a low mileage petrol one (2.0 TFSi EA888 Gen 1) and am looking at modifications on it, so thought I would join up properly and say hi. Gotta say what an engine, but do need to try not watch the fuel gauge or MPG figure, lol. Trev.
