FWD Mk2 golf does 171mph at brunters
Yup, as title. Fitted with a 1.8 turbo engine from a Mk4 GTI.
Best of all it had STANDARD internals and not even a mad spec.
Its a daily driver, 365bhp at 1.5bar.
0-60- 4.7
100 in 10.2
124mph 1/4 terminals.
All in the latest Perf VW mag

Stunning!!! 
11 quarter with FWD, that's mad in a road car
I've always love'd MK1 and MK2 Golfs, and that engine is a weapon, and has been stuck in everything from Passats, Seat Leon/Ibiza Cuppra, so probably well easy to get hold of and stick in your MK1 /2! (20v 1.8 turbo unit?)
Proper modern rocket ship with classic looks! Wonder how they got the gearbox to last, as I can't imagine it is a lot stronger than a ERST item!
Shame uncle henry has only just got round to making a modern FWD turbo car, but limited production for us RST owners..........

I think this is james the fitter from jabbasport- very impressive car.
The 1.8 t is a very tuneable motor indeed and jabbasport have proven to be very capable mappers- getting some superb results.
I have the same spec motor from them for my Elise

Its a black mk2 20vt with around 360 to 380 hp. it holds the fastest front wheel drive quarter mile time acording to REDLINE RUMBEL 11.8 at the pod. 0-60 is in the high 3 sec with micky 'T' slicks.
Im pretty shure he done an 11.5 now tho. (could be wrong)
