i ran a 13.5 102.6 in the 1/4 mile with stage 2+ hpfp

with the AWD should do 13.3 atleast

were not

BSH should start a WOA turbo for the golf R....

 

[huy]

well its the ol FSI motor, so it shouldn't be hard to make a big turbo kit for it... i'm still holding out for a Jetta Coupe R... K04 FWD. it will be our version of the Scirocco R.

^ Can u imagine a GT35 with active awd in a 2 door body????? X_X

 

[Viking445]

I'll wait for the FT-86 from toyota before deciding.

well i had a WRX making 500hp... so i know what that is like. it wasn't an ideal daily driver like the GTI is though. i live in CA, though, so it wouldn't be possible to do it legally. (and i don't have time to do it otherwise anymore)

if i could, i'd probably have a HPA R32 Twin Turbo or a HPA New Beetle w/ AWD VR6 Twin Turbo swap. (and RSi Wide Body Kit)

GT35 Golf R would certainly be fun, though.
