Mk6 gti vs??
« on: 05 November 2015, 01:34 »
Just wanted to know what cars you guys have had a run with your gti's...amd what was the outcome? and if you had any mods what were they? just wanted to know how quick these gti's actually are? and does dsg really have that much of an advantage as i think it does? the gti is so smooth sometimes you dont realise the speed your doing till you either look in your rear view or see your speedo..its crazy.. Reason i ask is because somebody at work claims he would outrun me in a f10 520d m sport...which i obviously highly doubt  :grin:

Ha ha guys with BMWs are deluded. They are about 8-9 seconds to 60 i think. If it was a a 530d or 535d if would be different.

Having a stage 2 GTI there is only a handful of cars that keep up (other than highly tuned or £35k+ cars). Best one to beat is an R32, (as long as its not from a dig on damp roads) they always think they will beat me......Nope!!!

The stock GTI can be a big sluggish, but once stage 1 or 2 you will have a bunch more horses and torque.

I had a 535d before my stage 2 gti and my 535d was 350bhp with silly torque so it was faster than my gti but a 520d would be a waste off time it be a little spec in ure rear view mirror haha. Stage 2 gti be faster than a 530d power to weight.

Why does any of this matter?
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.
