    KW V3s, dogbone, 225's and LSD have almost eliminated it for me. Only happens in the wet over big bumps at WOT.

    Will see how things go once I have the PSS9s in (already have the INA street dogbone)...

    lol. ~180kW vs what, 110kW stock for the GTI - and the R32 sends all power through the fronts until it starts to detect slip anyway... :p

    That's a fair point. Maybe the solution for GTI drivers is to beef up a bit, and maybe carry a tubby front passenger? It's harder after all to use the old ute trick and just throw in a few bags of cement!

    128kwatw stock for stock, a IV GTI with a chip + zorst will get just under that, and the 300kg difference in weight really isn't helping the .:R either...

    I drove my mates 230kwatw MKIV the other day, now that was fast !
