Default 170 HP or 150 HP?
I've been looking at getting my 2000 1.8t chipped.
I saw that there were 150 and 170 hp versions of the 1.8

So my question is: How do I tell which engine I have?

Look around your windows. Is there chrome trim (170 HP V6) or is it black (150 HP 4 cylinder)?

Look at the trunk, does it say 1.8t (150hp 4 cylinder), or 2.8 (170 V6)?

I know it's a 4 cylinder. However, on the AWE site it refers to a 150 hp and 170 hp version of the 4 cylinder 1.8t.

what year is your car? The 1.8t's were 150 HP up to 2000, they bumped the hp to 170 in 2001.

All the 1.8t engines are 5v (5 valves per cylinder)
