Anybody have any details for the performance upgrade on the R32 from VW.

Heard they can be turned into proper little stormers.

 

Find it hard to believe that VW offer an upgrade. Sounds like pubtalk to me matey!

 

i gotta good up grade, squeeze a RS6 engine in the front??!!!

 

Would'nt be surprised but its deffo been tuned, maybe lying about VW doing it. Who tune's these then, Dubsport?

 

I bet Stu has probably had a look at one already. If not I reckon AMD, Jabbasport, Superchips or any of the usual suspects.

Look at this one. Has an alledged 550bhp

Was looking for n/a tuning potential of the 32s but cant really see much out there.

A friend has a tuned one but is keeping a bit tight lipped about it! All i could get was that VW tuned it but that appears just to throw me off.

 

Im waiting for the 'its bodged' with a spacer plate remarks

 

Mate got his done at AMD I think,somewhere down Oxford way if thats AMD?

New cams,exhaust system,chip was Ł2300!!!!

 

Ouch!

 

good link to the xr6t aswell in there lee
im gonna get me one of them babies

 

CosKev3, And what power did he make?

 

Has'nt had it on rollers,but hes well happy with the improvement in the way it revs and the extra torque.

dont worry, found it. Weight 1477kg thou so even at 300bhp they aint gonna be that fast are they, 203bhp/tonne.

 

Not been in it or raced it.......yet!

Its about the same as my other mates classic UK scooby that has got the Prodrive ecu,de-cat exhaust etc which is 260 bhp.
