Never heard anything so comical in all my days, a remapped GTD, f**k sake for the price difference from a GTD to a GTI, why didnt you just buy a GTI ? 
probably something to do with economy.. oh yes and of course being quicker*

I see this torch paper and I'm drawn to the light.

A revo'd GTD is 208bhp, a standard GTI is 210bhp
More torque on the GTD yeah, but it needs it, its a frickin tank.
Where is this faster bit you speak of ?
