So a tweaked Civic could beat a 1.8T Golf?! Not a fair match TBH. However the mk4 even if standard wins on looks everytime!

home built engine by my own fair hands with different engine management, 1.9 engine, chargecooler, hybrid turbo, S1 LSD, Cosworth brakes all round. It was running 210bhp on a generic map but could have benifited from a live map and a bigger set of injectors to get the best out of it. I just ran out of patience spending a LOT of money on it. At least I got it featured which was my main aim

Prefer the look of the JDM version myself, though. ;)

Agreed. I looked at one before I decided to get a Golf, but insurance was :shocked:
