needing your help with my mk4 golf gti
« on: 14 July 2012, 19:35 »
Hi all! Iv just bought a 1998 VW Golf GTI 20v 18T. The guy I bought it from said its been stage 2 remapped but I'm starting to have doubts. Saying that though so far I'm undefeted my last victory was over a 18t Audi A4 quattro  that I past at 137mph Its been decated with him. Iv put it on 18" rotas with toyos, a new south performance boost gauge mounted in drivers air vent, a pair or angel eyes, bee sting arial, KnN induction kit and coilovers. I have big plans for this motor and would like to fit a ko4 to it but I don't have a clue how to go about it. I know its going to cost a bomb but I'm not in a hurry. I'l do a bit every week. so if the car was yours what would you do and how would you go about doing it. Iv been told bigger injectors, ko4 manifold, front mounted intercooler, better plugs, 3 paddle clutch, lighter fly wheel and loads more which I will do but I would like to know from mk4 fans their opinion.
Thanks Derek

137mph  :shocked: didnt even think the golf is capable of this speed. If you've been doing that speed on a public road then you are an idiot.

With respect, posting about racing and speeding on a public forum is not going to do you any favours whatsoever.

Hardly suprising with that kind of weight to drag around.

On a rolling road my car only managed 129mph I think, and it was screaming it's poor rocker cover off.

Use the search function, it is easily deduced what are the 'best' mods for your car.
