Golf 1.8T AWW turbo transplant in AWD motor

We'll it's no longer a mystery that the AWW motor comes with the same intake impeller as the sportier K04. What the the true power differences? No need to ponder anymore. Here's the dyno results to show the difference! With all other mods being exactly the same, this beta-chipped AWD car with a K03-53 transplant instantly made 10 more peak HP and an steady 15-17 HP gain above 5200 RPM! Nice of VW not to tell the public of the turbo upgrade between years. This particular car managed to make close to a corrected 220 crank HP and a serious 255 or so ft-lbs of torque. That's quite incredible for a 1.8 L engine!
