Re: Is FSI really necessary?
im not sure, but this is my take on it. since the FSI system is the fuel delivery system on the mark 5s, its not exactly something vw can just pull out without some more major R&D. since the car's pretty dependent on electronics, it would be much easier to detune it via the ecu (instead of taking the entire FSi and its support structure out). not only would that cost much more (R&D), it would also be for a significantly small portion of the global golf market. golfs are the number 1 selling compact car in europe, but in the states, its pretty pitiful. why would vw do all that R&D and lose revenue by taking out an integral part of the engine?
do you get what i mean? i dont think i explained it straight (sounds like circular reasoning :laugh: )
disclaimer: im not basing my views on anything factual, so if it turns out to be wrong, then more power to you
