Was just having a look around and ran into this
Interesting to see the stock is 220hp and 292NM. Although I guess we all knew the outputs VW quoted for the GTI were abit off.

hi all just wondering if the manual 90TSI has boost control in 1st gear? as it doesnt feel as though it hits any boost till 2nd?
Not sure but it may just be a case of not enough load against the engine due to the ratio of first gear. This is mainly the case though with cars that have a bigger than standard turbo, you will find you cant reach full boost until seccond and in some cases third gear due to there not being enough load against the engine in the lower ratios.
Would not have expected this to be the case with the TSI though?
I thought i would update this thread, its been a fair while.
Last Sunday I got the chance to run at the Heathcote Test & Tune day.

Confused
How can a golf do 0-100 in only 4.1 seconds
That's crazy fast. Wouldnt you need something like 500kw to get that from a golf?.
Golf R, Grey, Leather, DSG, 3 dr, ACC, 19's, Satnav, Dynaudio, Sunroof, RVC, Bluetooth
The same way you get a Golf down to 12.46 on the 1/4...
Easy....with decent ECU tuning to match the same hardware mods that provide good results on any turbo 4.
Hi just thought i would give you my time that i ran at heathcote on the weekend
