You non-believers crack me up hehe. I really have nothing to prove, and nobody to convince, just sharing my race story :) I've owned 2 gti's in the past and know them very well. I also raced a gutted A2 with a vr6 transplant after I installed my pulley on Tuesday night. I guess I didn't beat him off the line and get a full car length on him before I hit send gear? They both got a bad taste of ///MPower.
:)

This was definetly a turbo vr6 denoted from the factory vr6 package and badge. And yes he got pulled on :) The 1.8T's sound a lot different from the Vr6's btw. Not hatin, just pointing this out.

most likely it was a turbo gti, meaning gls, meaning factory turbo 4 cyl. It was probably chipped. unless you have done a LOT to your m, you will not beat a turbo vr6 in a straight line,, adn from the way you told your story, that is what happened today when i raced my friends chipped 1.8t jetta. They are quick chipped, they are quicker with a k04.

Not hatin, just pointing out, it most likely was not a turbo vr6, unless you are heavily modded.

I know, i sold my turbo gti yesterday for my m. the gti is almost as fast, until about 100.
