A TT that only puts out 300 hp? Man thats kinda low isnt it? Hope that can be bumped way up with a chip.

BMW's tt's are small and are used to add power without turbo lag (and they do a very good job at it). They are running minimal boost so not to steal all their M3 sales. Of course for a few hundred bucks you can easily increase your HP and torque to insane levels. Look up JB3, juicebox, etc... there are many.

Still a V6 TT with only 300 HP is bad IMO. They should have tuned it to 350 or more stock. I know the turbos are small, I had an Audi TT with a single turbo and it was small so boost was on real early but that was a 4 cyl with one turbo and it made 200 hp (250+ with a chip, TBE). An extra 2 cyls and an extra turbo should net 350 at least. But Im sure the chip will do it some good but man thats kinda hard to bragg about when a NA V6 has more HP.

Like serge stated, it is more like 330-340 hp. BMW just under rated it. They are fast, def more than 300hp

Thas sounds better, and with the chip Im sure they are even quicker with all that low end TQ. They probably have more TQ than HP with the chip.
