How do I know the type of engine I have?
Depending on the vehicle, you’ll find the engine code in different places. It can be directly on the engine block, stamped in or on a type plate or else on the cover of the toothed belt. The operating manual might also contain the engine code. If you can’t find it in any of these places, a repair shop can help you.
Differences between TFSI & TSI engines you can find here.

How much power does a racing catalytic converter deliver? And does the exhaust emission standard change?
You can't say that across the board. It depends on the position, the size, and the software. The number of cells, whether 100 or 200, also influences the performance.

When using a racing catalytic converter, the exhaust emission standard does not necessarily change. This is due to the catalytic converter and is also stated in the product description.
