Eggs Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Sorry for such a basic question but what is the stock power output of my '91 manual TT? I've always thought it was 280bhp but just checked as I'm doing a modified vehicle report for the insurance company and have read 300bhp a few times so guessing it varies by year? Thanks Quote
andyzx Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 I believe it's 280 for an auto and 300 for a manual. Slightly different turbos Quote
Eggs Posted September 2, 2016 Author Posted September 2, 2016 That would explain it, thanks Andy Quote
Jay_S Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 is there any other difference between auto and manual? besides turbo and box? Quote
Stephen Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Autos have milder cams and a lower AR turbo, the exhaust housing is smaller, just. The slush box has a higher parasitic drain on the drive line as well. Mean while in the real world it makes a very minimal if any noticeable difference. If anything a converted auto will be more responsive. Quote

dutchgold92 Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 There should be a slight drop in power from '96 on as they dropped VVT, but the officially stated figure remained the same. Quote
Yowser Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 There should be a slight drop in power from '96 on as they dropped VVT, but the officially stated figure remained the same. Yep, although VVT effects low down power/torque rather than peak power. Quote
