"Lesser Models" ?? Hardly, with R prices through the floor there's nout in the price. I'd much rather own an ED30 than an .:R

Thats probably a fair comment. But if your not doing many miles, then MPG figures are just numbers at the end of the day.

I've heard about these spacers/adapters which supposedly make a true atmospheric dump of the usually recycled air. Not sure how well this would go down with the DSG box. In the past I have always found fully atmospheric dump valve's tended to make gear changes very lumpy. (In contrast to the smooth change the DSG box has.)

Just laughed my way through those 4 pages on R32oc.com  :grin:  The guy is seriously miffed  :P

Heres interesting reading:

R32 Power-to-weight = 163 bhp/tonne

ED30 Power-to-weight = 167 bhp/tonne

GTi Power-to-weight = 148 bhp/tonne
