    is it just me?

    Lads / Ladettes

    now that the initial honeymoon phase has worn off im a bit bored with my GTI... sure its zippy and i enjoy spanking fully sik cocky v6 commodore drivers through the hills. i want more. even with trac control and ac off i dont really get much of a throw you in the back of your seat kick that im craving.

    is it just me?

    not keen on voiding any sort of warranty.

    Then your stuck with it.

    this happens with most things, except a hayabusa. You can rarely get it full throttle so you've always got more to go.

    And who's says you will void warranty. Depends on what you do. Changing to coil overs for example will only avoid the warranty on suspension which dosnt matter because you have changed it all anyway.

    Sadly to make it go faster or handle better you're going to be swaping out stock parts and/or tuning it to go faster... which is going to effect warranty to some extent... of course the upside is it goes faster.

    Plan B: Sell it and buy a Golf R

    Plan C: Go along to a track day and actually get to enjoy the car rather than sit in traffic or drive at pedestrian speed limits.

    I'd call that more of a mandatory requirement than a Plan C
