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

I love the wide black arches, sort of a G60 throwback. Agreeing with other's comments on the power, it needs to be pushing 260 or so to pull of that look. That said, it's only a few mods away depending on the engine.
yeah but with that look and i'm sure a healthy price tag, i wouldnt expect to have to mod it! to compete with something like the megane it should be mental out of the box othewise its just a mk6 with a body kit... boasting that theyve released a couple of horses because of the exhaust makes me laugh too.

But that power will probably never happen on a GTI for the same reason it has not since the early 90s from the mk3 onwards. VW have to restrict the GTI because of those stupid overweight, numb, bloated VR6/R32/R models.
