I saw this the other day.

The problem is how to you get all those bits in Australia?
I couldn't find any way to get ABT products here.


Also, APR have a stage 3 turbo kit to upgrade the VAG 2L TFSI to 370kw which is a big gain.
At the moment it doesn't say anything about the MkVI but it works on the MkV so it is only a matter of time.

Sorry, it is 370Hp.

The US site use Hp where as the AUS site sections i was looking at use Kw.

370hp through FWD is going to be tricky. Will DSG support this kind of torture?

Manual only as far as the site says but Guy may surprise us yet.

Manual - No problem. DSG at your own risk. There are a couple of dozen GTi's running the stage 3 on DSG (6 speed wet clutch version) with no issues.

Having driven several of them, they are really fast - but in full Auto mode, sometimes the box gets confused with the torque levels. In full manual mode, they were awesome.
