I have a VAG car and would like a little more hp.

VAG (VW, Seat, Skoda, Audi)

If you have a VAG car, it is typically possible to have a slightly larger turbocharger fitted that can deliver up to approx. 225 hp. The turbocharger for such a car costs around DKK 4,500 and in addition the car must be "chipped" for the new setup. It is not necessary but recommended to mount a front-mounted intercooler for the setup. If you have decided to have one of the following turbochargers on the car but do not know which one to buy, you can write an email with your number pl. number. Then we will return as soon as possible.
