Description

CJSA / CJSB 1.8 TFSI EA888 Gen3 Bare Engine / Long Block – VAG Replacement Engine

This CJSA / CJSB bare engine is a complete long block assembly built to OEM standards for VAG (Volkswagen Audi Group) vehicles. It is the third‑generation EA888 1.8‑litre turbocharged direct‑injection engine, featuring DOHC 16‑valve cylinder head, dual variable valve timing (phase regulators on both intake and exhaust shafts), and dual injection (FSI + MPI) for improved performance and emissions compliance.

The assembly covers two engine code variants:

  • CJSA – 180 hp / 250 Nm, with AVS (Audi Valvelift System)
  • CJSB – 180 hp / 280 Nm

Both use the IHI IS12 turbocharger and share the same core long block, giving you flexibility when replacing your original unit.
