    1.4 tsi is the main engine across the VW group. 1.4 ACT 150bhp is found in VW, Audi, Seat, Skoda cars and has an active combustion chamber tech where when you're cruising it turns off 2 cylinders. My mrs has it in her Leon 1.4 FR ST. Its a great engine and you can also get it as a hybrid in the Golf e.

    140+ bhp still have some fun with that. I rented a Golf a few years back from thrifty wanted to cry when he said its a 1.0. I actually had some fun in that tbh. Power of a 1.6 with less weight and a turbo. Pulled through all the gears very well and had no issues hitting 100+ mph and that was only 116ps/bhp whatever they called it these days.

    Mk 7 golfs in any spec are a sick car for young people, I had a 1.6 TDI GT (boring I know) a couple years ago when I was 19/20 and it was an unbelievable car for the money. Way quicker than you'd expect, comfortable, easy to drive, loads of kit, and proper nice quality interior, almost on par with my current 320d in terms of material quality but for less than half the price

  • @markturner-smith5309

    The 1.4TSI 150ps ACT is a good unit. I test drove a Golf GT (similar in spec to "R-lines") with the 1.4TSI 150ps and engine felt quite ordinary....... however test drove a Polo BlueGT which is basically a 6c Polo but with a 1.4TSI 150ps rather than the GTI's 1.8TSI 192ps unit. The BlueGT with the 1.4TSI 150ps is fantastic and completely different in feel from it used in the Golf. Any the unit he has in the Golf is the 1.4TSI 150ps (post October 2014) unit which is 250nm in torque. There was a pre October 2014 1.4TSI 140ps unit same engine and almost identical torque figures. VW tweaked just tweaked the two engines ECU wise and got bit more power out of the later post October 2014 units. Fantastic engine that actually drives and males same power and the old late 90's/early 2000's base VW GTI's 1.8Turbo 150ps units of old without the mpg loss.

    TSI engine has both a supercharger and a turbocharger, the supercharger works from 0 to 3,500 rpm giving massive bottom end power then the turbo takes over after 3,500 rpm its the best of both worlds, its power everywhere !!! genius they can be pushed to 178 BHP and £30.00 a year road tax, win win

    Not for petrol heads. If you already own one then fine, enjoy your car and ignore this rant as its just my opinion. Read no further!
    But....if you are thinking of buying one and have ever had a real R or a GTI then unless you absolutely know what you are getting with this car, dont buy it. Its got all the downsides of a sporty car (harsh ride etc) but with none of the magic that a GTI has. I am just trying to save others the heartache I had for the 6 months we owned one. Fortunately we got lucky with the recent spike in second hand car prices and sold it back to the dealer for a big profit so a win,win.

    Oryt Calvin, you should do a video on the Skoda Fabia mk2 VRS with the 1.4TSI engine, they’re great fun had one as my last car the DSG box was amazing and it was great on fuel and I was 19 when I had it n was only £850 for insurance. I had it remapped to 210hp 300nm and it surprised a lot of people.

    That R-Line looks nothing like the MK6 R-Line we have in family. Its acually a GT R-Line, not engine is same as this 1.4, 160 hp and not even close to a GTI, but the design om the MK6 R-Line is Way sexier, with nicer side skirts, wider lookin shoulders etc.. Check it HERE !!! th-cam.com/video/jVMB2b_QApY/w-d-xo.html. Also make sure to check videos of my MK7 GTI Clubsport, which is freaking Legendary!! 👍

    You want to make videos of normal cars being driven well. Lot of the time it's not about power. If you can drive good you can make any car feel fun for the passengers

    It'd be good to see a comparison on costs over say 5 years of ownership taking into account tax, fixed amount of miles a year and general service costs... It's not the cost of a golf r that puts me off its the running costs

    Probably still be expensive to insure. Once it's got a turbo it goes up. Only cars that are insurable for 17 18 year olds who work and have to pay there own insurance is 1 litre fiestas etc. My lads 18 and what they want for a cooper s for him is rediculous.

    Wouldn't dream of modding the 1.4 /1.5 TSI engines 🙈 the 1.4 engines in the Mk6 were good awful for that, good, nippy little things. But no point modding unless you was spending big haha.
