353whp Jetta 1.8T Drive by from stop.

Gt32 Turbo custom kit, from a dead stop just up the street. Stock clutch so it was a bit slippy. Replaced it with a 228MM dual Diaphram Eurospec. Good times.

no joke, nice jetta, every bit of 335 hp all you haters out there. If you don't like V.W. why are you watching this video?

[deathxe5]

[GTO19020]

@luminaeus aint nothin wrong with that lol

[luminaeus]

@GTO19020

I don't blame you at all, and if I had bought the Mustang instead I would be in the same exact position, lol. Except instead of planning for turbo upgrades I would be planning for Whipple's kit that gives it 600+ rampaging, suicidal horses.

@luminaeus and i agree....but being addicted to V8s...there rlly is no comparison for me in what sounds meaner...its just personal preference i guess...my ears are biased XD

[GTO19020]

@luminaeus this is true, 2 ears ago, i had to choose between an LS2 GTO and an STi...and i choose the GTO...the interior is rlly light years away from the STi and in a drag race (which is what 99.9% of my races are) i can easily stomp a stock STi....only down side is when it snows round here...im severly fucked lol

@GTO19020

It depends on the engine, I guess. High revving Hondas sound stupid, but VW's can sound deep and mean. Check out the video 'APR MK6 GTI RSC Exhaust' Probably as good of a sound as a 4cyl can get.

I thought about getting an STI too but they're damned near $40k. Out of my price range for a car that's gaudy on the outside and all hard-plastic on the inside. Previous generation was much better looking, but it's a big risk to buy a used STI or Evo. They've all been abused lol. :)

[GTO19020]

@luminaeus yeah, but against you are going to spend an extra 5k and IMO i hate the sound of a 4cyl, its just annoying to hear....to me, a big evil V8 will always steal my heart over a 4cyl....the only 4cyl i have even rlly considered buying is an STi and that just cause its got a respectable look and is a real drivers car.

@GTO19020

It's a nice perk, nothing wrong with enjoying it if you have it. You get the nice deep rumble, I get to go a little further on a tank.

I could have bought a 5.0 Mustang GT but I bought a new GTI instead. It's 600 pounds lighter, $10,000 cheaper, and a much nicer car to be in. And for about $5k in parts it'll be as fast as the Mustang in a straight line too.

And still get 34 mpg on the highway. It just won't have the V8 rumble :(

@finddavid7 sick of seeing all the ricers in Knoxville. We have a couple of tuned up VWs. Need more though.
