Hi guys just purchased a GTI and I have not regretted it one bit. Was in two minds between a type r and GTI and after test driving my friends there was only one way to go.
GTI 05 plate
55,000 miles
It was tuned by Statller
Evoms Intake
Turbo boost 3inch exhaust
Autotech Fuel Pump
GIAC extreme software (Ko3)+stage 3 gearbox software
Tarox Brake Discs and pads
19 inch matte black pro race rims
Michellin pilot sport tyres
Also any ideas on how quick this thing is? I bought it like this from a trader he reckons around 280bhp-290bhp
Iphone pics so apologies for the bad quality! :p

Looks awesome, loving the wheels! Is it lowered?
-
Thanks mate needs a clean though :p yep its been lowered
-
Any ideas on what? Love the stance!
-
What are the traox discs like, with the extra power the r32 front calipers might be worth a shout. but DaveB is the the best person to ask :happy2:
-
cracking purchase :congrats:
-
Tarox break discs spot on! And i wanted to know what you giys thought the power on the car was based on all the mods?!

best bet would be to stick her on the rollers!
-
looking good :happy2:
-
Nice car that. 280bhp is about the max for a KO3 but the only way to find out would be to take to a dyno.
-
Looks good mate :smiley:
-
I love the look of the standard Gti black bumpers and skirts with the Black wheels. :drool: :drool: :drool:

I dont as i was not the one who tuned it.. Was the previous owner :p if i hadn't bought it modded. I remember looking for my gti for around 3 months and came across. This one had all the extras sat nav fact fitted xenons sat nav heated leather seats etc but once i drove it i was like sh*t this thing is quick! rest is history :)
-
The only reason I ask is if it went to Statlers it would of had a rolling road printout so maybe worth checking through your folder of paperwork to see if its there or give them a call and see if he can track down the info on the system.
-
Spotted already :happy2:

Well i called statller up and he said he reckons its between 280-290bhp but i will have to get it on the dyno to be sure.
