Is this True??
« on: 25 February 2013, 17:12 »
That VW made some 8V GTI's with 150BHP from factory and they are very, very rare. Tried searching but no info on this. A Friend was saying that its written behind the VW Manual or service book (Cant remember which)  :undecided:

Never heard of that mate. Only the ABF's made 150BHP.  The 8v is a fairly old lump now and back then I can't see how they could have made it a 150BHP, unlike these new cars they have tiny engines that give big BHP!
