A3 2.3 Sportline Quattro DSG

[Peter Hopper]

can anyone tell me if you can fit a turbo to an A3 3.2 and who carries out the modification.

do a google search for VW R32 turbo's - they are the same engine and there have been plenty of conversions done in the past

edit: on a very quick search i found

Would a DSG box cope with the extra power & torque?

Boydie thanks for the links and Matt will need to check this out when I get the low down on the turbo, first thoughts are yes it will cope as it has obviously been beefed up for this engine in the first place.

Thanks guy's

more than likely you will have to import a turbo kit but as i said, do some research for any british tuning companies

im sure it cant be that hard, just expensive!

i looked at it in the past and you do have to be careful with the dsg box as i'm pretty sure on all current re-maps they have to limit the torque
