The Jetta TSI Racer will make it debut racing appearance on Easter Monday at the Oulton Park Volkswagen Racing Cup race.

In road-going form, the Jetta’s 1.4-litre, 16-valve engine produces 170 PS (same engine found in the VW Golf GT sold here) but the engineers at Volkswagen Racing UK, with the help of their technology partners at Superchips, Milltek Sport and Turbo Dynamics, have boosted this to 230 PS.

The TSI unit features an engine-driven supercharger and exhaust gas powered turbocharger gives the Jetta low engine rpm supercharging while the turbo powers on at higher engine rpm. This eliminates turbo lag while contributing high levels of torque throughout a wide range of engine rpm.

The engine was awarded Best New Engine of 2006 in the International Engine of the Year Awards.
