Why does the Audi TT get more horsepower out of its 1.8T?
I mean doesnt it have like 225hp or something like that. I am very interested and intrigued by the 1.8T engine its a marvelous machine.
Still dont have one but I hope to either do a swap in the future or just get a GTi maybe the Driver's Edition if circumstances permit

The Audi 1.8T has a bigger turbo. I'm not sure of any other differences, but I'm sure there are some.

The 225TT has two intercoolers, and a bigger turbocharger (previously illustrated)
The intercoolers make a huge difference.

the k03 and the k03 "sport" both look like the one on the right (size-wise) right?
