R32 Turbo

Back to the original question:

If you want to tune a German car you go back to Germany, as Germans are crazy about cars in general and their own cars in particular.

OK i didnt understand any of that!! But an headucated guess (little joke for u all there) would say a 400bhp one would cost about 10k

here was me thinking the purist R32 driver doesn't like them Turbo's.

Just wouldn't be the same would it

The same but better,some of they twin turbo r32s are pushing 700bhp they sound sh!t hot.

This actually sounds interesting.  Does anyone know if any engine internal modifications are needed?  Are these conversions reliable?  I'm surprised how they were able to fit a turbo and intercooler (albeit a small one) under the hood.

I wouldn't go for a 700 bhp version but the 400bhp one sounds tempting.  My main fear would be the extra stress on other components including gearbox, diffs, suspension, engine mounts, internals etc.  One would probably need to uprate most things.

Grab yourself the Volkswagen driver magazine for this month (as posted earlier :embarassed:) It is a five page feature.

Some of the twin turbo r32s are outdragging lambo gallardos on the strip.

Seeing one at Inters with 565bhp go down the 1/4 mile, beating a Gallardo is easily on the cards.

But a 5dr everyday usable car which will wee wee over most porsches does sound soooo tempting!!
