I have a friend who has a Golf GTi with some performance chip....I forgot from who.
About 200whp.

I'm stock accept for the K&N drop in.

So who would win?

Just for fun:
Also, I have a friend who has an RSX Type S with a K24 motor and a K20 head. w/ a Greddy turbo in it about 300hp. Who would win....probably not me huh LOL.

 

u should bc i beat my friend with a gti and turbo back and intake and chip.... but it will be close enough to where if u dont drive good he can beat u

 

U should win cause my boy has a gti 2006 i win all day. and all i have is a cold air intake

 

he will probably win.

 

My buddy has a 2003 VW GTI 1.8T with the Revo stage 2, catback, downpipe, BOV, CAI and some other **** and can beat me by half a car length atleast...Im 100% Stock...Before the REVO i would beat him by about the same margin..!

 

So it's two wins and one loss. I take it I should at least tie. Did I mention it's a 2003?
I dunno if that makes a difference.

 

It'll be a close race, my bro has one with a giac chip, and it rips.....supposely chipped they run consistant mid 14's. So its a definately a drivers race. I know that giac and apr make the best chips for them...very aggressive....plus u forgot to mention torque....those cars chipped will make 290+ at the crank. Best of luck and tell us your out come

 

Go woop on him. Hand his ass to him on a GM platter!

 

We'll see I'll keep you huys informed.

 

Auto or Stick? Sorry for dumb question if they only come in stick.

 

>_<

......


i would say you could take him.... but that is entirely a driver race imo. if he wins, just get some cheap mods and let him know what's up :p. i mean hell, your car is basically stock.

 

lol which 1!!! I haven't looked into any Volkswagen cars.

 

You should win depending on driving ability.

 

Just wait until it breaks and race his rental car. VW= lots of free donuts at the dealer since you'll be visiting atleast monthly for something.

 

you should easily beat him specialy near top of third youll pull mad hard

 

It wont be easy...have u ever driven a chipped 1.8t ??? my bro rolled with my friends srt4 and the srt barely wins and thats from a 20-100 roll. A chipped 1.8 is no slouch.....it'll give his stock ss a run for its money. Like I said...drivers race really.

 

being a VW guy myself and still being involved in the VW club here in NC i've had plenty of opprotunity to test my cobalt against GTI's R32s and everything. all my races and reference times are on a 1/4mile track.

the stock gti would lose everytime.
I know a GTI with programming (APR), exhaust, forge diverter valve, intake and coilovers will run a 14.1 prior to getting a fmic. that's with a crapy clutch and in pretty cool weather.

if all he has is chip and intake it will be a pure drivers race. but if he beats you race him again and his heat soak will slow him down quite a bit.

as in for the long run you'll run him down. anything past third gear is yours.

 

My brother has a GLI with a stage 2 kit from APR with the upgraded turbo and i just slightly pulled on him even on the highway at 90mph, that thing has some *****, and that was when i had everything on mine. With just a chip on a GTI it would be close.

 

no offence but here i know the vid sucks but this is me vs my friends vw 1.8t when i was stock
those chips do alot for their cars tho

lol. 'closed course'....
he's not slow.... but those were all from a roll as well

 

My friend has a 2004 Jetta 1.8T 5 spd. Chip (225hp they say) intake, down pipe, lowered on good quality coil overs...he ran 14.3@97mph.

I am stock except for a K&N Filter. I ran 14.5@99mph.

He has the faster time but lower mph. So it would be a drivers race. Sooo close.

 

I dont know what to tell ya....I'm not startin anything...so dont take any offence. One its a jetta...they do weight more. 2 maybe he had some heat soak? from running it hard..esp if its hot out....stock intercooler doesnt do that well 3. if its chipped...he really needs a drop in filter and definately a new diverter valve, cuz they're junk and wont hold the boost its now producing. That seemed more like a stock 1.8 with the amount of pull u had on him or maybe he cant drive I dont know. All I know is my bro has run 14.3-14.5's which is just as fast if not faster than most stock ss/sc....drivers race in my opinion still.
