New & Improved Forge Catch Can For TFSI

[TimmyH92]

Just a quick one... Seen this on both Awesome and Forge's website advertised as TFSI but it looks to me like it's fitted to a TSI in the pictures?

Lastly not sure if I'm being thick but I dont see the difference to the old one, so if anyone that understands the changes that could explain it to me, it would be greatly appreciated!

You're not thick, and you're not alone in wondering this mate. I can't see it listed for mk5 Golf GTI's on the Forge website either so you may be right. Apart from the massive plate that covers have the rocker cover and the fact it's re-located the catch can away from the charcoal filter (meaning only one design for all engine types), I can't spot any different apart from price. I may send Forge an e-mail to get a low down of the improvements over the original system (which they still sell..?).

That's a TSI kit (pic and description) but it's listed under TFSI applications - obviously an error which I'm sure they will correct soon enough

Sounds a plan to me! Be interesting to hear what they have to say...

I emailed them last week but not got a reply yet 
From what I can see the MK6 can has sexy new plate (which can't be used on my engine) proper connectors on both plate and can and braided hoses to the can. The original MK5 can had jubilee clips on both ends and the newer MK5 version has the alloy finishers covering the clips.
I'd really like the MK6 connectors and hoses in my engine bay
