it probably won't be in a few months...

also you can have a map that's more sensitive to the gearbox if you try - no harsh torque spikes at low revs would help that.

Pretty much my dream Mk7 GTI. I'd never have that much power in it though. 240 tops, although he says it handles ok

I'd say he's upgraded to a Pelaquin LSD and upgraded the clutch with a lighter flywheel.

Now the drive shaft is the weak point :cry:

Is the 320bhp at the wheels or fly?
