It's not that I don't want to mod it it's just  that I'm going to spend some time with the mk5 and appreciate it for what it is for a while, it's pretty rapid already really. Brakes are a little weedy but you can just press the pedal abit earlier!  :laugh:

I think it would need more than a remap to keep on the tail of a GT3.... even with a lady driving*!

There is a certain reassurance from FWD that keeps you quick! down the twisty lanes the GTi would be almost there, soon as you hit a relatively straight bit though.....that and being so much later on the brakes the GTI brakes are well underpowered for the car I reckon
