How do you tell if you have a FSI or TSI?

[DarkstaR]

Look at the engine cover.

FSI = BPY
TSI = CCTA

And from a recent thread in the Engine / Drivetrain / Exhaust section:
Pictures of each for reference :w00t:

but it basically stays the same
it is just a namechange...because VW introduced TSi for all Turbocharged engines (bi and single)

over here in europe the engine menue offers you

an old
1.4 80HP
1.6 102HP (FSI)non charged
1.4 122HP TSI Turbocharged
1.4 140HP TSI Twincharged
1.4 160HP TSI Twincharged
1.4 170HP TSI Twincharged
2.0 200-290HP TSI (name was TFSI)Turbocharged

there are also 1.8 TSIs but not available in theGolf/Rabbit

I was trying to be sarcastic but then I decided to add in more info. Just getting tired of people asking "How do I tell what I have?"

[idk alex]

I have driven both fsi and tsi And for some reason the tsi feels a lot quicker and peppier?

because it is, they're probably 200whp stock.

[clutch fool]

yea VWoA confirmed that the "t" before the "fsi" does add more whp!

2.0TSI is building on EA888 structure, 2.0TFSI is EA113 structure, EA888 has lots of improvements, like you don't need to change "the belt" (one plaststic belt controls the valve timing, sorry for my poor english) every 60,000KM.....the compression rate of the engine lowered from 10.5:1 to 9.6:1 , so that you can add ROZ93# gasoline.....1.8TSI is very popular now in China, on VW Passat B6 and Skoda Octavia and Sagitar(Jetta V).......cheap, high torque (250nm 1500rpm-4200rpm), reliable, low service charge. I think EA888 are being substituted for EA113 in next 3years...
