Hi all,

Just bought a 2002 Golf GTI. I opened the hood and the engine cover says 20 valve 2.0 turbo. Is this correct? I was under the assumption that they were 1.8 liter turbo motors.
Any help on this question is greatly appreciated.

I bought it for my son and he is very stoked. I ran the CARFAX and it is clear. No major issues.

V/r

Golf GTI 2.0 Turbo?? I don't think so, as far as I know, they are making 2.0 turbo's now, but not in '02. It is, however, 1.8T, 20 valve, 5 per cylinder. around 180HP stock....I think one of them has a 6 speed manual.
That's what I know about golf's, but if it says yours is 2.0 20 valve, maybe but it is, but I don't think so.
