I have seat leon 1.8 TSI and now I would like to compare the engines 1.4 TSI with my 1.8 TSI does anyone can tell me some web page or any info of this two engines as I am not able to find anything on web. I am sorry for my english i am from czech republic. thank you all for any information Hi guys

Man... 80% of torque at 1250rpm... gotta love this engine! If VW can bring this in at RM120k, I'll happily book one!!! Great animation in this video.

Turbocharge in Europe normally using low pressure for normal used car, like volvo.. So If u read about turbocharge, it actually save more fuel then the 1.8L thx to its low torque and better combustion of the pressured provided.. The Europe are not same with Japanese who want more preformance and does using high pressure turbo like Evo or WRX Sti.. Eventually If ur car can move under 2000rpm with 7-speed DSG or 6-speed manual even climbing a hill is a breeze for turbo.. For N/A car the torque and HP band are higher then Turbocharge so u need to rev to overtake or climb hills.. I own a L502 turbo kancil and the FC is more save then my old caburated kancil.. That why i know the advantage of turbo.. Try asking those people who drive turbo cars.. not all are worst FC as u think.. Only those hardcore modifiers who want more power will suck more FC..

The TSI line of engines all have higher horsepower and torque than any similar displacement VTEC/iDSI/VVT engine. That means they will definitely burn extra more fuel than the japanese engines to give that much more extra gain in performance. The better way is to compare similar horsepower engine's fuel consumption. Take for example a Honda Civics 1.8l engine at 140 PS, and 174NM. I bet you the fuel consumption isn't as impressive as the TSI. Come on, don’t be a cracker nut.

I like the engine performance ... really extream design .... Supercharge + Turbo charge the 1st car in the world ... someday i also think to have a 4A91 + supercharge n Turbo lol ... will be mivec + turbo + supercharge 250ps ... dreaming ...

Now in Europe they are also moving to made small and powerfull cars such like Mini, Clio, Panda and etc.. This is because their fuel price also quite high compare to us and they need less FC car to drive along city and highways... Turbo is a great way of reducing road tax and emission control.. Well think of it a 1.4 TSI engine in a Waja with 7-speed DSG gearbox.. Wow.. Roadtax already save then current and the HP and torque already kill that 1.6 louzy campro engine... Is killing 2 birds with one stone! Brilliant! VW mucks!
