Timed it a couple of times and get 0 -100 Kph or 0 -60 in 6.1 seconds. Way faster than the quoted 7.5s by VW!!!

Looked like the GTI needed two DSG changes, thought it only needed one from 0-100?

Come on that's had some sort of mod, there is no way a standard GTD could only be two tenths slower than a GTI PP and 5.9 for that is questionable too?

To be honest, whilst it would be great if my GTD was that quick when it arrives, I highly doubt it's as quick as a GTI. What isn't known from that video is if the car was on a slight downwards incline or has been modified in some way.

I do believe it will be quicker than 7.5 seconds, but probably no more than say 7 seconds flat ?

Looks rapid! Maybe it's running one of the tuning boxes? Surely a standard one can't b that much quicker than book time?

My hunch is its been modified in some way. Looks/sounds bloody quick though.

You GTD boys must be salivating at the prospect  :laugh:

If it is standard then there's a lot more potential - a £290 box from TDI-tuning boasts 239PS and 495Nm (would that torque be a worry for the clutch in the longer term?). It would seem that the TDI seen there is probably pushing at least 210PS already. I know VW generally inderstate power output or quote worst case/non-run in figures, but that is amazing. My 170 TDI can just about outdo my mates MK6 GTI on a 2 mile uphill drag (but not on the flat) from a rolling 20mph start - A19 Silverlink roundabout to Killingworth

It's always hard to know when you can't see the road but it looks very quick.

Here is another video of a side by side test of a Standard MK7 GTI vs GTD DSG.

GTI vs GTD (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uqx-ZG450_o)

Still close to 100kph  but in the 100hph - 200kph time the GTI is 10 seconds faster  :shocked:

I see Superchips have the first stage map for the new GTI  putting out 290 BHP and 435Nm  :evil:
