2006 Audi TT gets power boost

[Kor]

AFAIK the 3.2 is the same but..


The 1.8T is now 237bhp

240ish is pretty decent!!!

Unknown if they changed out the K04 or just chip if from the factory or what...

So there is only a 13hp difference between the available engines? that seems a little odd.

what about in 2002 when the 1.8t's became 180hp and the 12v VR6 was still 174hp. 6hp is a little more odd.

i think the 240hp 1.8t was normal numbers for the s-line ones with the black roofs or whatever so it looks like they just standardized it.

Good Point.

Yes in the press release it even says that the 1.8T has been brought up to 3.2 levels. I am guessing they offer both engines just because some prefer the turbo. Also not sure about DSG on the 1.8T vs the 3.2.

Anyhow, I would get the 1.8T at 240hp its pretty good stock and who knows what chipping will do (unless the only change for 06 is new programming).
