But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Slow as a MK3 8v..  :laugh: 0-60 MK3 8v = 10.1 seconds  |  0-60 + MK2 8v = 8.x seconds | 0-60 + MK4 1.8T = 10.3 seconds... and then there's the power / weight ratio....

I think we know who the winner is  :wink:

0-60 for a 1.8T Mk4 is about 8 seconds dead. The 10 second stat is for the non-turbo.
