Question of the Day: Do you think you could pass a driver's licence test without any preparation?

Hello, I am new here and have been reading this thread and it seems very interesting with alot of conflicting stories...
for the record the MPS only makes 138kw atw which is the same or less than some stock BWA GTI's
if you want to find out about GTIs and Tarlton and the local GTI scene you can go to www.vwgticlub.co.za/forum
hey there mal,
good to see some Vw boys entering myadsl forums
i heard (feb or so ) you sold your GTi ? true or false ?
Can you spell RICE ...
If he only knew
serious ? didnt know that ... where about ?
Well poor guy sure it wasn't the 2.3l n/a. Because that figure isnt normal i tell you, i've seen sheets and its around 155kw. I will get mine done and see for myself138kw was what a MPS made at the VWGTIclub dyno day, it had an exhaust as well vs 139.5kw for a stock GTI....same dyno, same day and not some google version that someone madeup

I was thinking of selling my car but decided not to as I cannot find anything as nice as a GTI (my opinion)...so my car is not sold and it has about 18k on the clock....
FRC comes from the Netherlands iirc....check their website out

The gold wheels look SICK ! Good going MJ ...
im also quite bored with my wheels, want to paint them but not sure of colour ...
Thats not so lekker...
Well, you are entitled to your opinion...I like them and thats all that matters
Info on G5 BWA as requested...The BWA's make around 160kw + ATF, mine made 153kw ATW stock...some of them even came out with K04, send me your VIN number and I will confirm if it has K03 or K04...hope this helps
Discovered a slow puncture today 
Tyre picked up a nail on the road. I drove for abt 10Km because i didnt feel any difference in ride. Just saw the tyre now.
Should i replace the tyre (R3000)
or just plug it?
To make things worse... its a new tyre

Another way to test this is if I raced a GTI and when I beat it and the guy is surprised, then it had a K04 turbo... otherwise if he isn't surprised then possibly a K03... LOL
But anyway, this is a confirmation of how incorrect the previous statement was about other cars needing a bigger turbo to compete
I really dont want to see what your car looks like (will look like) done up
just plug it, why spend R3k when the plug works 99% of the time. If you not satisfied still, then buy a new tireDiscovered a slow puncture today

what car do you have Evo ? and why wouldnt a bigger turbo help make a car faster ? that is what you saying isnt it ?
Congrats on running a 13.9 at Tarlton , MJP
Breaking into the 13's in a GTI is a great accomplishment.
definately, did you run with your 19's MJ ?
I really dont want to see what your car looks like (will look like) done up
They both nice. Just got the old SLK 17" AMG rims for my Pgti. Your 19" Audi rims are crappy to
My opinion again!Been doing some googling, seems that a plug is perfectly fine and safe.just plug it, why spend R3k when the plug works 99% of the time. If you not satisfied still, then buy a new tire
But having a blow out at over 120 Km/h because of a plug failure is kinda scary. Will take it to TWT and see what they suggest

if you not convinced, dont do it. but i plugged many tires and with success.

don't plug it...rather get them to patch it from the inside, take it to autoquip
@ catch21...time was done with 19s...i do have a set of 17s with semis at home but chose not to use it this time as we were testing some new mods...
EVOBunny, bring that ST of yrs and I will teach you a thing or to or did you not learn a lesson from JOJO?
damn i hate forums Info on G5 BWA as requested...The BWA's make around 160kw + ATF, mine made 153kw ATW stock...some of them even came out with K04, send me your VIN number and I will confirm if it has K03 or K04...hope this helps
some clever jack(s) here was arguing with me that NO GTi had a K04 fitted. And they ended up gang banging me, so thanks for confirming.
Did you ever hear of a K03s turbo ?
