A reliable 600+bhp R32 with DSG would cost more than a 600+bhp MK6 R.

I know what is involved as I work for a HPA dealer.  :wink:
Fair enough, haven't really done much research since its miles out of my league ATM  :laugh:. Either way we all know whatever you get next will be a weapon before long  :happy2:

Was thinking the exact same from reading the R400 thread... If that indeed has a bigger turbo than the 7R, then it could be an absolute animal... And how unique.

Won't be as big as the turbo on hurdys mk6 though.

Hurdy's car history typically follows these principles:

-buy a well spec'd stock car
- modify it to within an inch of its life
- lots of 1/4 mile runs & Dyno days
- Steve Jnr puts it back to stock
- gets part ex'd for a faster model

And repeat  :grin:

Mk7 has better haldex, is lighter and probably just as tunable

It's a sensible upgrade as sooner or later boredom will set in with the 6R, may as well swap now  :jumpmove:

The 7R will be at very least as good as his 6R when it's been "Hurdied" and if it were me, I'd be more excited about having a different engine to play with. When you've done 2 high power TFSIs it's sensible to move onto a newer engine.

I'd like another passenger ride before you put it back to stock please John (4th or 5th Nov at Statllers sounds good  :happy2:)

Looks like Nortech performance might be doing a turbo kit for it if John gets a mk7

I am still debating. A few options available for a MK7 already.

Not sure I want to give up on the MK6 yet though.  :smiley:

Surely the Mk doesn't really matter if numbers are your intention?
