Hey well about 2 weeks ago I traded in my tib for a new 05 VW GTI 1.8T. So far I have done the following (yeah I know it is a brand new car but so what! it still only has 900miles on it evil.gif) :

- APR 93 Octane ECU reflash
- Forge 007 Diverter Valve
- N75-J Valve

It puts down 14.1 stock and with the above mods looking at mid to low 13s. Here are some pics.

 

sweet GTI. All german cars look best in Silver. With the way you put miles on a car, this is definatly worth it.

 

That's sexy as hell... seriously. I love it. Golfs have been more and more appealing to me for some reason. Wish I had the money, and I'd probably do the trade as well.

 

Very nice car.

I test drove one of these, they are really nice.

i like the 6 speeds tho.

U have to pop the shifter down to get in reserve, so simple but tricky lol

very nice choice, i was thinking about getting the same car a month back smile.gif

Good choice.

 

I loathe you. How much you pay?

Take off that plastic poop in the engine bay.

 

looks awesome man, and i bet its fun to drive.

i second the removal of the plastic shit in the bay.

 

Much moola, about $400 a month. The 1.8T didnt come in a 6 speed. Yeah that plastic cover needs to go. Just havent had time to do it yet! Took a pretty nasty negative hit from the tiburon loan.... but oh well right?

 

Nice choice man, theres a bunch of badass gtis around here that i know, its got serious potential...Does it come with an LSD? just curious, anyways nice new car.

 

good numbers, never was a fan of the gti look tho...

One of my mates just got himself (well... about 9 months ago) a new MK5 Golf TDi. Not as much power but plenty of torque; from a standstill it's a bit of a pig but with a rolling start it pulls like a V8!

He's since retuned the ECU & fitted coilovers & 19s imported from Germany... b****in' fing02.gif
