A golf R as quick as a 1.8t, you on crack? I'd agree if you said you had a stripped out golf running 350bhp then that TT-RS territory but a 1.8t with 240ish 
I wouldnt compare the two, Ive been in a mk4 r32 and thats on par with a 230bhp mk4, the 2.0TFSI powerplants are in a different league as I have been in the mk2 LCR k1 edition stock and tunes and my mate had APR's Golf R the other day as they borrowed his TT-RS for development. Even the lowergrade mk2 LCR would chew the hell out of any mk4 in its way unless it was stripped and had some good work done.
Dont ask me never driven one, i know he went from evo9 to golf r to now modded focus rs500. Said for £30k performance was poor on the golf. Golf r's only260ish bhp aint they?? He's got 60plate M3 too in matt black, rich boy.
