    I am shopping for a 2003 GTI 1.8T I have noticed some of the engines
    have a 20V Turbo emblem on them and some do not. Is there a difference?
    Can't seem to find any info from VW.

    Don't know about the US mate, but in the UK I'm pretty sure the engines are the same. You get a variety of badges on the back of the car but the 1.8T engine is a 20V turbo. Usually producing 150bhp, but tuned up to 180bhp for anniversary models.

    Don't think that's available in the Golf is it?
    TT engine is a 20V turbo but was tuned up to 210 then 225bhp I think?? Bit more to it than just a little tuning though, think it is actually a different engine.
