Octavia vRS 240

Mater · 10-04-2007, 18:10

Seat have now launched the Leon Cupra R with a 240Bhp version of the 2.0 TFSI

I wonder if Skoda will put this in the vRS soon

Hopefully it will be before i change my vRS for a new one next year

I think we should start a petition and send it to VW/Skoda to ask them to bring out a new vRS with the 240Bhp engine in.

They could even call it the vRS 240

Its doubtful as they never put the 225 1.8T into the Octy

skodaw · 10-04-2007, 18:19

Not likely to happen -- the S3 only has 265 -- the GTi would have to have an upgrade first before they would allow it.

Mater · 10-04-2007, 18:24

ahh but never under estimate people power if enough people petition we could make it happen.

Look at snakes on a plane people on the internet decided how that film should end up

True, but that's only 230bhp and it's a limited edition.

Lummox · 10-04-2007, 18:37

I'm not sure how limited it is, still plenty of supply.

Also betting there isnt much difference if any between 230 and 240 brake engines and code, more than likely a little marketing massaging of the figures.

I can't see Skoda being allowed to lead the performance pack to be honest. Be good if they were allowed though.

cheezemonkhai · 11-04-2007, 00:41

They did with the MK I for a while over the Golf GTI

razor · 11-04-2007, 01:31

yea i wish we could get the up-rated blocks,i know it wont happen but i would be great.

Snoopie · 11-04-2007, 07:10

I'm sure for the serious modder... It wouldn't take a lot to convert. I suppose it's like converting from a K03 to a K03s. Bit's and bobs needed, but can be done I'm sure.

My car was chiptuned by ABT Sportsline upto 240 bhp.......
