Who wants to turbo their 8V GTI??
« on: 15 August 2013, 18:35 »
There's an Audi 80 cabriolet for sale on eBay, it's a 2.0 8V and it's had a turbo conversion done to it.
The turbo kit can be used on an 8V GTI, the engine layout is the same, but it's turned in the Audi. That's all.

Item number: 281151107236

Buy the Audi, take the turbo kit off, scrap the Audi. Win win situation.  :laugh:

150 BHP ABF which is naturally aspirated vs an 8V GTI which has turbo?

We all know which would be faster.

But like murraymint has said, it's something different.  :wink:
