Description
Upgrade the reliability and performance of your Volkswagen or Audi FSI engine with the USP Motorsports Oil Pump Conversion Kit, engineered to replace the failure-prone balance shaft assembly with a high-flow, robust oil pump from the proven 1.8T platform. This conversion not only eliminates a common failure point but also enhances long-term engine durability and oiling efficiency.
The 2.0T FSI engine is known for its balance shaft-related weaknesses, which can result in costly repairs. USP Motorsports has developed a solution that removes the balance shaft assembly entirely, reducing weight and complexity while offering a superior lubrication system. The included oil pump, chain drive, baffle, and associated hardware are based on the 1.8T engine architecture—renowned for its reliability and performance in high-demand environments.
Designed as a complete bolt-in solution, this kit comes with all necessary hardware, fittings, and even a helicoil insert for crankshaft gear adaptation. It is ideal for enthusiasts who demand more from their engine or are performing an overhaul and want to safeguard their investment with a more robust and economical oiling system.
