Went to pick up a engine tonight got a good deal aswell very happy with !! Anyway was loading the stuff into the back of the van while the guy was looking for the metering unit got engine/loom/suspension ect into the back of the van and he hands me a weird looking metering unit along with the rs turbo one aswell I said what’s that he goes to me ah that’s off a audi he said they are supposed to be better than the rs turbo standard units make's the car run much better?

Is he talking pish or is he right? Not seen a rs turbo run this sort of thing in my puff

In most cases - no! The geometry of the funnel, the diameter of the plate, the metering unit itself - everything is made to fit the specific engine. Just because the Audi might have more engine capacity or more horsepower - metering unit (parts) are not automatically "better".

Same with 105 hp XR3i <-> 130 hp Golf GTI MK2 metering units!
