That makes a bit more sense. None the less, awesome time and mph :)

Yes, he has.... The left scrutineering lane at WSID has a weighbridge.

It does matter mate, "quick" is a combo of power/weight.... the car is DSG so really anyone should be able to run the same number in your car.

Seats and exhaust .
At the end of the day the weight loss on the car is no vodoo magic . It takes me 30 min to remove and 40 min to fit it back .

Well anyone can remove exhaust and seats out of their car . I want to see anyone come close to my times . BTW I feel there is more to it as well , 11.5s with stock turbo is my goal .

Do you exit the exhaust out the side, or just leave the downpipe to exit in the tunnel? I want to try this on our Golf R too.
