my cbr 600 will still stomp it. :grin: but, still - nice car. i had a vw scirocco with a custom 2.0 turbo pushing 10# of boost, it was highly addictive and fun as hell. handled like it was on rails too.

but still, for pure speed and adrenaline - crotch rockets :thumbup:

You lucky bastard.
Was this in the US? It's hard as fuck to get a scirocco here. Or I'm guessing it was an older one.. they haven't put a new scirocco on US soil in a while because they were scared it would kill GTI sales.
But they are talking about it for the future models..

And yeah most sports bikes will outpull most cars.. that's a given. Goes with the territory of 10x less mass and 600ccs on a slender frame. but you can't carry stuff... and when you crash it.. splat.
Definitely fun though

Raced one of these with my civic si double turboed and won by a solid five seconds on the quarter. Probably just a bad driver but I still feel good about it :lolsy:

My friend had the GTI 20th anniversary edition when it first came out. It was pretty sweet. It had a manual transmission with 6 gears.

yeah it was a mk2 of the older 80s kind. i know it's a given it's just fun being so quick for so little $. i drove a few mkIV gtis with the vr6 - and a nice r32 as well - very very fun little cars, i'd love to have one. i'm sort of an audi guy though :shrug:

Hey, Shroomism.


Did you mean 260 horsepower?

I was reading and supposedly the gli autobahn comes with 210hp as is and the stage one only ups the power about 55 horses

You feel good about lying?  Civics are very easy to make quick, but 99.95% ov boosted Hondas run a single.  A twin setup on an I4 is a waste ov money and anyone saying they have one is probably lying and clueless.

Nice, mkII roccos are attractive cars.  2.0 16v or aba?  Boost most definitely is very addictive.  I bet that was a hoot.  Yeah, you do'nt see them around much anymore.  Paint them silver and people will just think it's a delorean.

Yeah I totally did mean 260. My brain must have been fried yesterday

These Mk7s can hit 360 easy as fuck though. Jealous

Hope you like it.  But unless you like fake engine noises, please remove the abomination to autodom known as the soundaktor and ship it to VW in an enema box.  Maybe they'll get the message.


LOL I missed this. That was my very first mod. Remove that piece of shit. Or actually I just unplugged it. I don't know what they were thinking. I like the enema box idea.

I have an 240sx that i did the jdm sr20det swap on


sadly, my turbo seized up on me. So no boosting for me for a while. :badmanthisfeels:


Time for a bigger turbo, bigger injectors, mass air flow and a tune. Should get close to 300hp with the turbo I'm set on :dancingshroom:

it was the ABA 8 valve, still, plenty of get up and go - think it dynoed around 240 or 250 whp. But, the interior was completely stripped - just the drivers seat, some dynamats for sound proofing, and that's it. It was very very light, looked awesome, and was tons of fun

Cool to see lots VW love on this thread. Im likely getting it tuesday. The insurance is gonna ding my wallet pretty hard at first but with the ole' salary on a predictable and notable upswing each year itll get easier and easier to pay. So i really cant complain. I can still live fairly comfortably even though im droppin a considerable amount of dough on this car, which im still getting used to being able to say.

Yeah,you're absolutly right. I remember you being in my garage working on my car. I'm a chronic liar when it comes to the multi figure money I spend working on my car. ..you are the car god and know everything about MY car and everything I've done to MY car.  You know ALL of the mods on my car and ALL of the stripping I've done in the engine bay to fit my mods.....:mygoditsfullofstars:

Ha.  You're full ov shit and that's a weaksauce attempt at redeeming yourself.  So tell me: what turbos are you running on your twin setup and who did your manifold?  And surely you have pics.  Anyone who has a twin turbo civic has pics, no?  What is your reasoning behind a twin setup on an I4?   

Put up whatever gremlins you like. I'll gladly call out your bs.

I do all my own work. I have two T1 turbos in series with two separate exhaust systems to compensate for manifold resonance tune

Edit: it's fine if you don't beleive me. It's not my problem you just got called out trying to call me out ya egocentric prick  :flipthebird:

What exactly are you calling me out on?   

You have yet to address my question ov why you choose to go to the hassle ov fabricating a twin turbo setup on an I4.  And i do'nt recall hearing about a t1 turbo.  What are they off ov? What car do you even have and what engine?  I'd love to see pics ov your plumbing(ov the twin setup that is, although i'm never opposed to seeing cock either).     

Next order ov business:  You claim to have beat a gti by 5 solid seconds in the 1/4.  So what was your 60, e.t., and trap on this run out ov curiosity?  Unless (s)he missed a shift, the time is in the launch.  But even with a bad launch, it would be quite hard to not pull off at least a mid 16 in the gti.  So i'm guessing that you claim mid 11s or better?  Hard to do with imaginary turbos.

Sorry to all but goldcaphunter for the derail.  This usually is'nt my bag, but i'm particularly annoyed by this person's obvious lies.  Good luck with your new car OP.
