Hi all! Iv just bought a 1998 VW Golf GTI 20v 18T. The guy I bought it from said its been stage 2 remapped but I'm starting to have doubts. Saying that though so far I'm undefeted my last victory was over a 18t Audi A4 quattro that I past at 137mph Its been decated with him. Iv put it on 18" rotas with toyos, a new south performance boost gauge mounted in drivers air vent, a pair or angel eyes, bee sting arial, KnN induction kit and coilovers. I have big plans for this motor and would like to fit a ko4 to it but I don't have a clue how to go about it. I know its going to cost a bomb but I'm not in a hurry. I'l do a bit every week. so if the car was yours what would you do and how would you go about doing it. Iv been told bigger injectors, ko4 manifold, front mounted intercooler, better plugs, 3 paddle clutch, lighter fly wheel and loads more which I will do but I would like to know from mk4 fans their opinion.
Thanks Derek

137mph :shocked: didnt even think the golf is capable of this speed. If you've been doing that speed on a public road then you are an idiot.

With respect, posting about racing and speeding on a public forum is not going to do you any favours whatsoever.

Theres popo on the forum its public and tellin bout illegal racing and breaking the law aint great

nice first post. :rolleyes:

Hardly suprising with that kind of weight to drag around.

On a rolling road my car only managed 129mph I think, and it was screaming it's poor rocker cover off.
Use the search function, it is easily deduced what are the 'best' mods for your car.

His 1st and last post :wink:

Did I say I did this on a public road????
but next time il show you the car and il show you the car hit 137mph and upload the vid. if you cant get your golf 18t gti to at least 130mph thentheres something up with it.
Derek

136.95mph on R-Techs rollers with mine.
Aerodynamics don't come into play on there though and as the mk4 is as aerodynamic as a brick...

There are few tracks or airfields you can do this on. The mk4 is so slow it would never reach these speeds before running out of track / runway. But if you can and do, make sure your speed is GPS verified. Your speedo at that speed wont be accurate
Cool story bro. Im currently undefeated too. I nailed a Porsche 911 Turbo just yesterday. Blew past him at 70mph.

Guys I swear to god hand on heart I ain't bull sh!tting and its bugging me that you's think I am. the guy with the 18t Audi I raced just lives down the road. He was saying sh!t like my Golf is made from parts Audi don't want. I couldn't get a word in so I told him to go get his keys I gave him the choice where he wanted to race and I past him at 136/137mph then stopped at the next lay by and couldn't get a word out of him. There was nothing fancy done to my car at the time just decated, KnN induction kit, dump valve and the bloke i got it from said it he had it stage 2 remapped but I think who ever did it messes it up as its not running right. I think it just needs new spark plugs and coils. Next time I'm on that section of road I'l record my speedo with my phone. Oh and don't preach to me about speeding on public roads when you do it yourself and don't say you don't. I wouldn't do anything silly if the roads were wet or busy. Can videos be uploaded here and how do I upload a pic of my golf guys

to prove my point go to facebook and search for derek waddell the profile pic is of the blue golf and go to my videos. i said it did 137mph last time well it hit 144mph this time and thats with a passenger a slipping clutch and f**ked coils,
-
110mph on my speedo was only just 100mph on my GPS last time I checked

to say that a few people at the suffolk lock up are laughing at this would be an understatement...i suggest removing a few pieces of incriminating evidence before you get a summons lol! :lipsrsealed:
-
I found the video to be interesting..
A. Bad camera man.
B. Poor quality graphics.
C. With A & B combined I couldn't make out if you were doing 30mph or 300mph.

Nice video driving a 140 mph on a public road and then posting it on a social network site. I'm sure the police will be knocking on your door shortly.
My friend took a video while he was on a track day and posted it on Facebook 3 weeks later he got a visit from the police to question him, he had to prove he was on private land by providing a statement from the track owner,
-
Great thread pmsl, ive not tried to top out on mine but i imagine it would do 140 ish as its quick to 100 but now you boys have got me doubting it, nevermind its all about the 0-70 imo!
-
Very clever and impressive (is it??) I'm sure we could all do it if we tried
-
the book speed for a mk4 150 bhp is 134 mph? and a 4mo is meant to do 146, so surley they cant be that much of a brick?
-
Last time that I went 140mph I no longer felt that my half inch thingy (fully erect) was an issue. However, when I got home that night, I found that I was back to square one. Next time I had better try 160.... :drool:
-
Well you guys have covered everything I was thinking I guess all that's left to say is hi welcome your a wayne kerr and goodbye enjoy your jail cell or death by tree!!!
-
This has got to be a wind up...hasn't it? Surely someone who is stupid enough to load a video up on their own facebook wall of something like that, is either a. wanting to be prosecuted, or b. faking it with a broken speedo :wink:
-
question: why did he post this in the first place?
i cant remember!!! :laugh: :lipsrsealed:
