im afraid i disagree there,
a non gti golf is basically a gti with out fuel injection, without rear disc brakes a bit of trim and missing the 'low' stance, but nearly most of the other running components are the same, tuning options are also very similar so i dont see the harm in some non gti peeps having fun in the forum and learning a bit from the knowledge of all the people in here!!!
sounds like a bit of a 'ive got a gti and you havent' chips on shoulder jobby going on to me
