lowering should be qte alot with 17's as tht is thought on the smaller end of the scale for a mk4 i hae 19's ans mine is about 50-60 drop - you could just buy coilovers so then you can drop as you please

the 2.0l is aka the snail  :lipsrsealed: but you will be able to get abit of extra bhp by full system, induction kit ect an mayebe even chip it :)

right ok fair enough, i'm guessing by your comments that a 1.8t is alot faster right? and my rover 25 1.4 keeps up with the golf lol, anyways not too arsed at the moment, trying to calm down with my driving now lol
ok so i can drop it basically on its arse without any problems, also fitting a full system and induction kit am i looking at like a 10bhp difference at the highest?
and when you said chip it, you don't mean the chips off ebay which promise 5million bhp gain? lol can you explain a little more by any chance please
cheers for quick replies

chips are old hat, a bit pointless opening up the ecu if you can just plug a computer into the obd2 port and flash the eprom in the ecu.  talk to R-tech and im sure they can give you an extra 10 bhp..
a full system would be benificial and aslo an enclosed induction system.. that should give you a bit more..
a good suspension system and better brakes will also cut your time! :wink:
