I got my 3.2 but to much dismay there was no FSI sticker on the engine? Can I install FSI on my engine? Is it a do-it-myself mod or do I need to take it into the shop? How much does an FSI cost??

Thanks,

No, No, and too expensive.

I read in VW Driver Mag that the MkV R32 was FSI. Anyone hear this?

3.2-litre displacement, 320 Newton metres and a powerful kick at low-rev ranges

Wolfsburg, 23 September 2005

The heart of the new flagship Golf is a four-valve six-cylinder. Its sonorous sound is true to its excellent power development. The engine pushes the Golf forwards from any rev range as if there was no air resistance. Power to weight ratio: 6 kg/hp. Together all cylinders deliver 184 kW / 250 hp (at 6,300 rpm). The 3,189 cm3 V6 produces its maximum torque of 320 Newton metres between 2,500 to 3,000 rpm. The performance of the new Golf R32 is therefore incredible. The five-seater with a top speed of 250 km/h catapults its passengers from nought to 100 km/in just 6.5 seconds. As standard, the engine output is transferred to all four wheels via a manual six-speed gearbox and 4MOTION. Volkswagen offers the new Golf R32 with the DSG direct-shift dual-clutch gearbox as an option. This unique automatic shifts extremely fast and precisely. The DSG version of the Golf R32 can accelerate to 100 km/h three tenths of a second faster, i.e. in 6.2 seconds. The Golf R32 races to the 1,000 metre line in 26.7 seconds with both gearboxes - these figures make this Volkswagen a top-class sports car that will be hard to beat.

In terms of design, the four-valve six-cylinder engine has a narrow V-angle of 15 degrees between the cylinder banks. The bore is 84.0 mm and the stroke 95.9 millimetres. Each of the four overhead camshafts - two per cylinder bank - use continuous timing adjustment. The adjustment angle is 52 degrees on the inlet side and 22 degrees on the outlet side. Roller rocker arms with hydraulic play compensation operate the valves. Each of the six cylinders is assigned its own ignition coil

Doesnt matter US wont get MKV R32, we get R36 and that should be FSI

RikiTik

True

First, the U.S. won't get the R36. Neither the 6MT or DSG trannys that fit the available space can withstand the 3.6's torque. The U.S. will get the R32. BTW, this was "officially" leaked about two weeks.

Second, the 3.6 isn't FSI either.

You could just buy the sticker....
