APR's Transverse 1.8 TSI Audi S3 and VW Golf R Engine Conversion Packages will upgrade your current factory rated 158hp and 180lb-ft Transverse 1.8 TSI Engine with all of the necessary OEM components from the European Audi S3 and VW Golf R and meticulously recalibrated Engine Management to produce 330 horsepower and 335lb-ft of torque on 98 RON gas.
APR's engineers have expertly recalibrated the engine management system to allow for a broad torque curve which results in a smooth linear pull throughout the power band. Keeping the track enthusiast in mind, this conversion package will not result in overpowering of the driveline but will allow for smooth acceleration to easily maintain control while cornering.
The Borg Warner K04 turbocharger selected by VAG engineers is perfectly sized for the 1.8 liters of displacement to allow for stout horsepower numbers as the RPMs increase with no dramatic fall off as redline approaches. This ensures plenty of power in the high RPMs for continued acceleration in the straights and positioning at the healthiest portion of the power band after corner exit.
