Just drove a GTI manual & you can heel-toe no worries..
As already said, there is a delay of approx 1sec before the brake/power override cuts in which is plenty of time for a heel toe.
But you said it was off its head!
If it was that modified & crazy it could do that even on 3 cyls!
Yeap
Predicted a stupid reply & say "bugatti"
The normal response when somone questions VW's power or performance "Bugatti Veyron , Bugatti Veyron"
Don't even know what my steering wheel is covered in anymore & its right in front of me! Far out!
Maybe I should start seeing someone, cause I'm loosing my mind.
But then again, I still know...
Anything turbo'd on your "P's will cost you a bomb regardless for insurance!
Oh I wouldn't be surprised if a 118TSI is exempt! They aren't that fast or powerful!
Must have been one very shagged 16v then! either that or was one very f%$ked up engine combination
A stock KR makes 139hp!!!!!!
Even my old banger 1.8L with a couple of mods made approx. 135hp...
doesn't make any sense to me
Thats like saying, my car dyno'd 210hp, but has kicked a leg out of bed & requires a complete engine!
Have dyno sheets to prove what it "did" make "when" it "was"...
As awesome as an alcantara wrapped steering wheel is, I had one of my very first sports wheels reskinned after the original leather wore out.
The material doesn't last very long before it starts...

Who were the...

How many km had the blower covered?
I have no experience with them at all, but going off nearly every report I've read from now to early on, they are time bombs waiting to happen!
Especially...
Now thats a Mk1 I could definately taint!!!!!!
Awesome pics as always Ray! Legend!!!!!!
Now this looks like its in exceptional condition!
How many km's are on it?
Always have a soft spot for Diamond Metalic Silver, as that was the color of my first mk1.
Even better with steel...
Hell yes!
Thanks Jason!
You may have to go through the thread again to post up all the times already posted so far.
Still reckon a copy of the time slip is needed.
G-Tech , stopwatch or...
Keep the pics coming!!!
A few new cars this year too!
What ended up being the numbers?
Did the watercoolers outnumber the aircoolers this year?

I knew it would only be a matter of time before you got yourself a Wideband meter! Well worth the outlay 100% & can be claimed on Tax too!
Good choice going with the Innovate...
I'll be the first to say no one knows it all incl. myself.
The reason why I'm on here today is cause 4 years ago I crushed my spine working in a produce factory supplying supermarkets which put...
My remark wasn't about who owns what & where.
Its the fact people will listen,take, quote or whatever they do with the info from people who have no idea about whats what when it comes to any cars...
