Wonder how much B&B will charge for a "Taxi" sign :D

Thought 0-60's were pointless.5.9 isn't superquick anyway is it?

It will need a new front spoiler too before some buy one:rolleyes:

I think 0-60 is determined by many different factors like weight, gearing and power delivery etc. I imagine, once rolling it would complete an impressive 1/4 mile etc.

The most significant bit of that is that just a basic remap will give you an extra 40bhp. That's not far off the gains that you can get with the 1.8T and will probably increase once the tuners have had more practice

quite agree perhaps the secrets are finally being unlocked...

i would expect it to be about 60hp gain when they get the maps tweaked bringing the new lump into line with the old one..

note audi sell the a4 with a 217hp std version (was only in the old DTM model in Ger but now in uk also.....) so maybe there is even more scope with that model....?

There's already tuners claiming to be able to tune the 2.0TFSI to 260bhp with just a remap and 270+bhp with other mods such as exhaust and intake.

It's not a rumour, it's true. A friend of mine here is doin' exactly that to his MK5 GTi.

Don't think Eddy said that Mil...he just said they are claiming certain output figures.

so whats diff on the 217hp version... ?

turbo or software?

Audi badge

Even with the 217 it's not up to the old 225s, I assume it is less peaky with a better torque spread?

Dunno,but

so, you take a 200HP 2.0TFSI engine, change the pistons, rods, head, turbo, air-charge cooling system, injection system, exhaust, downpipe and cat and end up with 350HP? bargain

Why would I want a drop in power.
