batmang said:im thinking they made it fwd for that dyno, because in the drag race vid its DEF not fwd.
02MazPro5 said:It's a R-32, they disconnect the halifax so it could run on the dyno. It doesn't hurt it. They come with 240hp stock not 260. The motor has not been around that long. 600+hp is fairly easy to get with either of their Bi-turbo setups. Back in VA one of the VW clubs I was with has an MKIV 1.8t that had 450-500 whp. Just wait till they bring ou the R36 if they ever do. Most of the time we (in the US) dont get to see most of the really kewl stuff VW or other companys have to offer.
Also i thought the R32 was a great car at first then it got way to popular and I got to ride in one when they first came out. Bad experiance for me..... The guy couldn't drive so I've been turned off by them for the most part. But their are a lot of Bad @$$ ones out there!

They had an AWD golf or GTI that was over 600 HP a few years back. It was in turbo magazine or SCC.
The reason they only do the dyno's in FWD is because they don't have an AWD dyno....
wicked said:but what about the track vid,it looks to me as though they are running it as FWD on the track.
Mike R said:Yes, at the track they run it AWD, on the dyno they run it FWD. It's just a driveshaft....couple bolts and it's off.
