Tsi300 misfire

[Sharkie]

I'm contemplating mk7 R motor do you know of any complications

Won't fit I believe, apparently some of the mounts are incompatible, and you will not be able to use any of the electronics/wiring etc in the Amarok. This will cost you at least 5X more to make work than simply rebuilding the existing engine.

I've really been trying to find info on this and can't seem to find much there's not much info on the cfpa
tsi blocks physically different?

The MK7 engines are dual injection (port and direct) whereas the TSI Amarok is direct only. This means an extra fuel rail with injectors and all the electronics, including ECU, cluster, keys, and the entire wiring loom at the very least. Cost of this will be prohibitive (think $10K+++) and then plus labour and extensive coding. Also, the MK7 turbo wont work in the engine bay of the Amarok (engine is longitudinal and not transverse)

Far easier to replace the internals in the TSI Amarok with stronger components and then go a K04 upgrade turbo.

If you want details of the OEM engine components look at Erwin.

I have a TSI Amarok and 7.5 R and would not even attempt to do a swap .... I will though build the TSI Amarok engine into a Stg 4 capability as I have a turbo upgrade on the shelf waiting. First will finish of the 4WD conversion though.

Turbo fitment and fitting everything is the easy part but the coding and wiring that's the hard part
