@TofuCakeCan Idk if this has been touched on. but that small scene where he doesnt have calipers, they used it to smoke the tires like that, so they could slam on the rear brakes with just the push brakes and the fronts would still spin. thats why its so short, then when they actually race, the calipers are probably back on for filming anything over 4 mph. just a thought. I know they do the opposite with rwd drag cars and some show cars.
Think it does is you look really closely at the left of the spoke with the air valve. Follow all the grooves in the disc round and then you can see with missing one in that section and you can just make out one of the caliper nuts as well. Same colour as the disc though. Have a nice day.
Yea I took the calipers off my jetta for street racing. Dat shit is weight and the back breaks work fine anyway so it doesn't matter. I might not put them back on.
@Demolutionguy no....you cant set the turbo how you want. the only thing you can set is how much boost the turbo runs. not when it spools up. otherwise everyone would be running large frame turbos and "setting them" to fully spool at 1000 rpms
not even dude, theirs a lot of bolt on turbo and supercharger kits out for s2ks that add a lot of hp, that with a few other bolt ons would smash a jetta, simply abecause of weight
@thaboss32 very true... in the past people were scared of introducing forced induction to the engine due to the high compression of the engine... but since then it has been proven to produce some VERY good numbers while still being a very reliable engine!! think it was CFT (central FL turbo) that have done some great maps obtaining almost 1000hp from the thing :D
the vtec is like adding 2-4 cylinders plus you get good mpg with normal driving under vtec rpm. its the best of v8 and 4 cyl. all together. if you get one of those vtec engine of 2.0 liters or more, you will be walking over cobras all day long and keep a close distance with a corvette.
actually before my mustang i had a 94 mk3 gti 2.0 8v and ran with s2k's with bolt ons tune and completly gutted..mad like 179 fwhp not much but enough to go kinda quick...totaled 3 years ago R.I.P "Helga"
At the beginning you can see 4 lugs on the VW that most likely means its the 2.0 8v, ABA with a turbo of some kind. Im pretty sure the 5 lug mk3's were the VR6 equipped models.
true, but thats not a fair comparison is it? if the S2k also had the same mods it would probably win. i beat an S2k on my first ever run at the drag strip, but thats just cos he was a shit driver! VTEC didn't kick in yo! lol

it is a 2 litre, and remember it's just a film, in a real race the S2k would probably wipe the floor with it
