Well I've put it up on our forum but to be honest the majority are all track day fans but you never know, some may turn up on the day. I've tried and although good fun, I too prefer track days, I got a measley 14.5 1/4 mile with about 280bhp, best on day being 13.9, so I'm what you might call........................sh*t at it anyway! :grin:

I'll say something, I'm gobsmacked at the fact you lot pay the same as us for Bluefin, yet you get 61bhp increase to our measley 25bhp increase, unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!! :confused:

So what's the sort of mod stages with the MKV Golf then?

Ours for example:

Bluefin
Full exhaust system (manifold included)
Forge Actuator  running 21psi
K&N Induction Kit

Result - Around 290-310bhp!
