    8 to 10% power gain is a good result for an N/A vehicle, and consistent with what other tuning companies are getting with the R36 engine I believe.

    The Aussie released CC has the 220KW / 295hp / 300ps engine that the R36 has.

    Rob, nice run mate, very quick considering a mate of mine in a heavily modded ed30 with about 325 bhp only run 13.2!!

    I'm a proud owner of an R36 here in the UK, Dorset and so pleased how rare they are although this is playing havoc on tuning potential so would be keen to have a few more details on this tuner in the UK and potential costs???

    Happy for you to PM me although know you're busy looking forward to the 1st November!!!

    I reckon you're run around 13.2 @ 105mph,...

    Sorry Matthew, ED30 is the limited Edition MKV Gti (30 years) which came with 230 bhp out of the box although is very tuneable, hence why VW are sticking a slightly modified version of that engine into the new Golf R.

    thanks, I assume we didn't get that one here, or was it in the form of the Pirelli GTI ??

    That would be about right power wise... Pireilli GTI is 169KW, or 225bhp, which is about 230PS.

    Weather permitting I will be going back to the strip on Sunday

    Also got a cat-back on it now as well so it sounds a bit more meaty.

    Hi Guys.

    Well I never did get to re-attempt the 1/4 mile. Got rained off (typical British weather!!). Will be trying again in the new year.
