    Just something to keep in mind that there is quite a big difference in the 132TSI and 162TSI engines.

    If you're looking at any performance modifications you'll want to get the 162TSI as there's a wide range of parts available for these engines. It is the same engine used in Mk7 GTI and also a lot of Mk7 R parts will also fit so you can pretty much go to the parts catalog and go nuts.

    The 132TSI is very much the poor cousin. There's only a JB4 tuning box you can get. People buy the 132TSI because it's the sensible choice and that's about where it ends.
