well if thats true, isnt it pointless getting 300 bhp, if the car cant put it on the road. Hurdys car is a classic case, i really dont think that you will better your time of sub 14 seconds and 5.66 to 60.
If what stig says is right, 200hp is the maxium you can put through the front wheels with the VW. hense why it stands up so well against more powerfull rivals like the vxr and sanitary towel,sorry ST

Good time but the Stig hated it (chronic understeer & dreadfull abs) he says the type r is the better car.

shows the stig doesnt know feck all!!, for starters stig doesnt talk!!,   :wink:. Honda's sh!te, 2nd gen is worse then the 1st one!

Anyone find a copy on the net in writing to back this up????

The awsome ed30 with 370hp,

have they track tested , done 0-60 times?? or is it just too uncontrolable from a standing start.

Oooooh, you'll have to wait for May's Performance Tuner magazine to find out. I spoke to Kirk via e-mail(works on the Mag) and they have tested several MKV GTI's at Bruntingthorpe last weekend and they are doing a full cover on them. It includes Awesomes car too. :drool:
He's gonna send me a free advance copy when they arrive :smug:
