1.8T MK2 GTI

[derglegnartertar]

sweet whip man

[Wpsuspension]

hey i have the exact same setup but im running on SDS mangement but your car seems faster maybe you have a reaLLY GOOD tune? i know i need a tune aswell

[Wpsuspension]

im in the middle of uploading some vids of my mk2 1.8t but its not tuned and i can tell this car has a good tune because it sounds like its just running prime! good job

[korey9683]

yo this thing is dirty man im building a mk2 jetta coupe with 1.8t 20 valve

[oli13a]

1:02 is amazing! makes me want an older golf even more..

give me a mk2 or a mk3 20v turbo anyday :D

[JimBobMc69]

0:25 Haynes manual? lol always come in handy, nice job aswel :)

[camperdude123]

mad bit of kit! love it

[matthewadamlloyd]

Bit late, but concerning this hate-fest going on here: 1.8T start @ ~168BHP. Say this is in a Mk4 Passat wagon, which comes to ~3,300lbs. On the Subaru side a '91 Legacy 2.2 N/A is ~135BHP and 3,300 lbs too. With drivetrain losses of about 15% for the VW and 20% at least for the AWD Subaru we're at ~142WHP and 108WHP respectively. Even with AWD and the higher torque its doubtful that Subby would beat a 1.8t VW.

That said, STIs smoke modern GTIs, and Subbys are WRC gods. Don't hate, people.

[73DrtSprt]

just baught me a turbo for my Mk2. got a 1.8t turbo, downpipe, intercooler, and a ported 1.8 head. just curious as to how much a 1.8t eo turbo can run as far as boost

[fjcruise]

1.8t that fasttt?? I got mine modified but its way slower...

[Fabio0491]

hahaha how is this car a ricer if its a german car?

[duramax250]

stupid ricers!!

[proefrock87]

You're a moron, it's a german car. And german car CONSISTENTLY out perform sloppy American trash cars. You don't see Volkswagen accepting bail-out money. Probably because they are succeeding more and more while the American market continues to fail at producing vehicles that people actually want to drive. Get a life you fucking cowboy redneck. Why don't you get off your lazy ass and take a fucking college class or something?!

[apriliars51]

yessssssss!

[klowtNsCkInGz]

@proefrock87 nicely said bro! kudos.

[BlackMk2Jetta]

@proefrock87

In addition to what you said. Volkswagen is actually the largest car company in the world right now. They own big named manufactures such as Audi, Porsche, Bugatti, Lamborghini, Seat, Skoda and many many more.

[apriliars51]

shut it u wanker

[kylerack]

man I miss my mk 2 so much, had a vr6 turbo in that thing but now I have a mustang GT, loved thrashing with my GTI and would def have it back if I could

[theandy4ever]

@kylerack its not like its to expensive =D ... Im 15 and I love trashing my golf ! I bought it for 140 euroes

[CompTech323]

Holy shit balls.

[chrisisthegoodstuff]

What kind of exhaust is on there?

[lsvtecbiatch]

how many hp do you have

[EG6collector]

My corrado will poop on this

[hoosiercub]

Mmm how about no...

[david8814]

hahaha 1.8T NEVER LOSES

[Quattro42]

shut mexmiler you twat!

[666mustard666]

I just sold my mk2. Hoping to get another one. damn sick

[Vr6inside210]

God this makes me want to finish my Mk2 R32 swap. Very nice

[mopar43v3r]

what does a 1.8t have to do with you wanting to finish a vr6 swap?

[Vr6inside210]

It makes me want to finish my swap.  It doesn't matter what motor I'm putting in

[kevrs2]

i am fitting an AGU code to my jetta at the miniute but yes has me wanting more power before its even finished

[mayhemlee]

music to the ears

[southernvw]

bad ass man, im almost done my vr swap in my 87 gti and def jealous of your bitchn gti. "my hat is of sir" keep up the good work

[david8814]

Beautiful.

[mexmiler]

I thought you said it was fast

[mopar43v3r]

way faster than a shitty subaru

[mexmiler]

HAHA, yeah, fuckin AWD and boxer engines, such terrible ideas

lol german engineering

[mopar43v3r]

a 1.8t would mop the floor with your legacy, at least buy a real subaru before you talk shit.

[mexmiler]

except they don't

I have no trouble taking down 1.8t vw bullshit, I've beaten a 1.8t jetta and a 1.8t gti, so take your fanboy comments somewhere else

[mopar43v3r]

i doubt your N/A boxer engine has taken down a 1.8t, quit talking out of your ass.

[mexmiler]

again with the pathetic fanboy comments

It's a 2.2 liter flat-4 with all-wheel drive

...More than enough to take down your shitty 1.8 liter inline-4 with its tiny turbo and front-wheel drive

go comment on civic videos or something, kid

[mopar43v3r]

you only have the ej22 eh? so you think a flat 4 with 135hp with more parasitic loss through all wheel drive would beat a 200hp turbo four with less loss through FWD? grow up asshole, this thing is way faster than your dumb and don't tell me to take my comments elsewhere, this is a VW video, and im defending VW's your the one that needs to get the fuck off.

[mopar43v3r]

i meant to put dumb subaru, dont try to call me out on a stupid typing error before you try it.

[mexmiler]

haha aww... doesn't it suck when you get owned by your own pointless argument? hahaha

...as for the other thing, I'm impressed, you used google to figure out my engine! Unfortunately for you, the 1.8t only has 180 hp and 173 ft.-lbs of torque.

It doesn't really matter what your opinion is on the matter, because I beat two vehicles with that same engine in them.

I do admire your devotion to vw though, maybe they'll give you a free economy car someday lol

[mopar43v3r]

can you not fucking read the mods in the beggining of the video? its pushing well over 200 maybe 220, and it depends on the engine management the 1.8t has, ranging from 150hp to about 225hp stock, either way, all of them have more power than your dumb NA 2.2..too bad your the one that got owned.

[mopar43v3r]

i didnt use google, i know more about subarus than you...

[mexmiler]

lol, in your dreams

...and the 1.8Ts that I raced were stock, which have 180 hp and 173 ft.-lbs.

Are you still talking?

[mopar43v3r]

oh so you still lost? and no not in my dreams look it up dumbass everything i said was true. look dude, youve NEVER beaten a 1.8t, stock or not, hell one runnin on 3 cylinders with a blow turbo would still kick your ass.

[mexmiler]

ok kid, if it'll get you to stop commenting then, sure, you win, now go away

[mopar43v3r]

if you think you can beat a 1.8t, make a video and send it to me kthnxbye

[mexmiler]

lol it's not that I THINK I can beat one, it's that I already HAVe beaten two different cars with that same engine, I couldn't care less if you don't believe it, you're probably just butthurt because you have a 1.8t... sorry, they're not that fast. I don't think I'll be catering to your requests anytime soon, get lost kid

[mopar43v3r]

you dont think a 1.8t is fast? but you think your 135hp boxer is faster? grow up dumbass and use some logic, theres no proof you have beaten one, sorry but 2.2 liter boxers with only 135hp are not that fast.

[mexmiler]

haha, spoken like a true 16-year-old, only concerned with horsepower, you really have no idea about anything do you?

and for the last time, I don't car if you believe me, you are barely old enough to drive, I don't care what your ignorant opinion is on the subject.

Goodbye, little boy

[mopar43v3r]

numbers dont lie, sad to know a 16 year old is smarter and more mature than you isnt it?

[mexmiler]

haha, whatever you say junior

[miamifinfan283]

dude..i 2.0t wud murk a 1.8t so lol ya

[MvP1292]

lol yeah bro-brah yo.

[mopar43v3r]

what?

[miamifinfan283]

wwhat..

[crumbmc]

@miamifinfan283 you obviously dont know what youre on about. a 1.8t can be tuned up to 900ps. when youre running boost. you can get a lot of power without large capacity. so lol ya

[glhman222]

not everyone can drive cars well, and a 1.8t with a good driver and a Subaru with a good driver (lets say you for example) the vw will win, look up 1/4 mile times and 0-60 times bub, even though vws now a days are heavy as shit, they are still faster than your Subaru when new

[hoosiercub]

As nice and imaginative as that sounds.. no

[sittinhighinthechevy]

That would be Moses car.

Maine ftw.

[BlackMk2Jetta]

sickkk one day im going to rip out my 2.0 8v out of my mk2 and put in a 1.8T on to engine swap number 2 =)

[mk2vw16v]

[vivelequebec]

[mattcwiek]

[PrziLL3st]

[elitetraksmusic]

ok i wanna buy this car at least can u tell me where i can find one for sale mk2 gti? i have a MKV GTI but its just to expensive to modify

[talon223]

[loxxrider]

[bs4me]

[dipbandana]

HOLY SHIT

[unreelpanorama]

what did you take the turbo off of? coz i've got a mk2 gti 8v and with the amount of torque it gives out i think it deserves a turbo! lol any ideas?
