The TTE360 is the highest performance stage offered by TheTurboEngineers, based on the original BorgWarner K04 turbocharger for the VAG 1.8T. This upgrade has been developed for drivers who want to achieve the maximum possible power within the K04 framework, without compromising on responsiveness, reliability and OEM driving characteristics.
With the correct hardware and software, approximately 360 hp can be achieved. The TTE360 is virtually plug-and-play, but does require a larger Turbo Inlet and modified ECU software.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the TTE360 fully plug-and-play?
Mechanically, almost. A larger Turbo Inlet is required and the ECU software must be modified.
What is the difference compared to the TTE340?
The TTE360 uses a larger 7+7 compressor and a K16 turbine, which delivers more top-end power and lower EGT.
Is this turbo suitable for everyday use?
Yes, provided it is correctly tuned and fitted with the appropriate supporting hardware. The response remains remarkably good for this power level.
