Golf R -v- Golf GTI

Thats about as quick as you need to go really, isn't it? On the road anyway. Im gonna take one for a spin. Its the kick down Im more interested in, how the lag affects the dsg kick down.

Any of these cars are fast enough for the roads .

What would an R do 0-100, 1/4 mile in with just an APR tune (with DSG).

Any ideas?

Wait for FLM to get back to us and you'll have a good idea!

FOS in relation to what? Asking price? Power? Something else?

[thezoneR32]

Sorry should have embellished - power and torque figure from a catback and tune?

[Corey_R]

Yeah... although DMS is also distributed by Harding Performance, so maybe Guy_H could clarify for anyone that was actually possibly interested in the car

I might be missing something but I just like in the advert how it says:
"4 x Brand New Tyres have been recently fitted (Which is a statement in its own to how the vehicle has been driven)."

And eah Dave I'm really keen to see the results

It has the headers & if it has the BMC airbox, it will make an honest 209kw & 380nm - All work was done i believe by Michael Weber in Coorparoo. Not sure on the actual brand of the catback, but it's an awesome looking car!

I agree that it's badly worded, but if he means this is the FIRST set of replacement new tyres, then after 55,000km in a 210kw Golf, that would mean that it's been driven quite conservatively!
