Revo stage 1 on mk6 Gti or upgrade to mk7
« on: December 08, 2015, 09:01:15 pm »
i currently have a 2009 mk6 Gti. should i Revo stage 1 it, or sell mk6 and get a mk7 Gti? Does the Mk7 with performance pack feel much quicker than a stock mk6?

If it were me, I'd go for the mk7 with or without PP - the standard mk7 sees quite a substantial hike in power with a stage 1 remap (around 270/280bhp I've heard) and the diff that comes as part of the performance pack is meant to be awesome too  :happy2:

I'd keep the MK6 if I was you, I drove both when looking and in the end went for a MK6. There isnt really to much of a difference betwen the two and I preferred the MK6 looks, plus a MK6 was 10k cheaper lol. Not to sure about tunning potential of the MK7 though. If money isnt a problem dont go for the Gti, go for a 7R instead or wait for the MK7 Clubsport  :happy2:
