    VW underquoted the old Mk 7 too. I went from a 6 to a 7 GTI, and there was no way in hell it was only 10 hp better. The bigger torque difference I totally felt, but there was a lot more top end than they were letting on. 35K miles and a couple of intake related mods later, she still spools up quickly and pulls strong!

This just tells about how good actualy is this new engine in Golf, it can max all his power acros the all range of rpm, that is pretty amazing enginering and plus that smart move with gearing there are result why is so fast! Amazing enginering VW!!!

    I think you should get the Akrapovic exhaust and who ever makes a downpipe, (you could have one crafted and just add a GESI cat) and you should be set. If you want to be first find some people fabricate!

    VW should stick a VR6 twin turbo in the 'R' and be done with it. That'll give you about 500 to 600 HP!

      @@johanvanderpulst5250 mine is also coming in July. The blue stripe across grill and through headlights will all be black and the mirror caps are black. I think the r badge on front is less silver too. There are a few videos on CZcams showing it on all colour cars and looks way better. My car is black with black estoril wheels and performance pack etc

      I was thinking the same! If this car will ever have some problem, VW will be reeeally happy to see how the owner is been careful in the first miles 😅
      Imagine the conversation:
      - Hey VW i'm Archie, i think my Golf R has some problems..
