Twin turbo facelift differences


Radio

Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me the difference that took place on the TT facelift (97) apart from things like Vvt-i and gear change on the steering wheel. There's a nice looking one on ebay with low milage. i had a uk one in the past which had larger brakes, steel turbos, etc etc. the import had lower bhp etc. this one is advertised with 400 bhp. is that standard? How do these facelifts compare to say, a standard UK tt auto. Opinions please and any help with differences. cheers ray

Imports don't have lower bhp, that's a wife's tale ;)

 

If it is the VVTi engine it will should be more torquey, the only thing facelift doesn't have that a UK TT has is heated seats.

Not stricktly true they have different turbo's for one, plus uk's have all the trimmings etc

 

They are all avalible on the facelifts bar the heated seats :)

 

Engine wise yes, the UKTT does have steel turbo's, larger injectors & fuel pump (I think).
