So you'll be a second a mile faster when driving at ten tenths? How often will that happen on the road? Bloody waste of money if you ask me.

The LSD and big brakes will make it SAFER as well as faster.

Agreed and IMHO it will also be an option which will hold most of it's value into the future at resell time, as nearly all modders and potential modders will seek out secondhand GTI's with the Performance Pack.
