Also, in case you didn't know, a simple chip swap can goose the 2.0T up to 240-250hp. zoom zoom
Best,
I have asked the question a couple of times without a solid answer.....but will Rotella T6 damage the emissions in a Audi or VW with the 2.0T?
Also, I might be interested in the chip swap. Who can install one and what do they cost?
There is no "chip swap" on a 2.0T, the ECU is direct-programmed. You can run a stage 1 program without further modifications. You'll also typically find that your fuel economy
improves, along with the power boost. Here are a few providers to take a look at...

What kind of power you'll see depends on which 2.0T variant you have. Do you have an FSI or TSI engine?
