GTI.Dav:
Lovely addition there. My mums got the new Polo GTI as well. I drove it for a few months whilst waiting to find my Edition 30. Very fun to drive!

Theyre supercharged turbos are they not? About 160bhp or something, great figures from a little engine.
Wonder what itll map to  :laugh: :driver:

Did you see Hurdy's polo GTI build thread?

He got 250+bhp out of his and 0-60 in the 4's  :evilgrin:

The 1.4 TSI is troublesome and IIRC a lot of tuners won't touch them. Piston ring trouble seems to be the most common. Most of them drink oil too  :sad1:

didnt they do a revised engine to stop they rings wearing and using oil,i think they problems were only on the early ones...

I had a 6R Polo GTI for 6 months.  Looked awesome, great performance, awful ride as standard. It once bounced me in front of an oncoming quarry lorry! It's got nothing on a Golf.

Sounds pretty dope, i will have ti have a little dig for it. Shame about the teething problems, i guess twincharged little engines are a fairly new thing.
