Hello, I am interested in buying a GTI 1.8T or GTI VR6, but I am not sure which one is better. So I decided, I should ask some of you guys for help . I am willing to spend a MAX of $2,000 for modifications, anything less than $1,500 would be awesome! I want to improve the 1/4 mile time and 0-60mph. 1/4 around low 14's. (14.0-14.3) 0-60 mph around high 5's (5.6-5.9) Here are the things I came up with: Intake ECU Catback Exhaust System Thanks, Patrick
You need to go to VWVortex for US car q's really. You'll get the same answer everywhere, though: A tuned 1.8T will blow the doors off a tuned VR6, but for everyday driving the VR will have torque on demand and good throttle response, whereas the tuned 1.8T will have numb response a lag...If you're purely interested in performance figures (which you shouldn't be) then the 1.8T is the motor for you
