Title: Big turbo MKV GTI's.....how many in UK?
Post by: Hurdy on August 07, 2009, 12:55:14 am
There is Regals MKV monster and There used to be Awesome GTI's beastie, but are there any more MKV GTI's in the UK out there that have gone bigger than a K04?

Not R32's, Diesels, Seat Leons etc....Just MKV GTI's/ED30's! :happy2:

Sorry, but it was just too good an opportunity to miss! I'm sure that normal service will be shortly resumed and there'll be serious answers to Hurdy's question.

Dans Leon with an APR Stage 3 2871R
Hurdys DSG which will have a VF 2871R kit
Veil tunings S3 with a VF 2871R kit

It would probably only be as fast as a K04 S3 with all the bolt-ons then. Strange! :stupid:

Exactly, oh well..

Thinking about it, there really isn't many BT 2.0T FSI cars around in the UK.. At the minute there is actually only 3 running! lol..

A rare breed then. Perhaps we need to have some stickers made up like the K04 inside, but GARRETT INSIDE :laugh:

Not exactly!

That is what I initially thought and then you have to consider whether you want the most out of the kit. If you do then you will need......

Pistons
Rods
Bearings
Retainers
Springs
Bigger intake (if you haven't got one)
HPFP (if you haven't got one)
Turbo back zorst (if you haven't got one)
Quaife diff (If you ahven't got one)
In tank pump
Software

Not quite just £3.5k :wink:

I believe yours was the first private one to be done. Awesome had theirs done sometime late 2007. It definitely wasn't fitted for Inters in 2007. :happy2:
