Default Has anyone taken a look at the Stage II HPA GTI R32?? In this months Motortrend

550 Horsepower
Twin K04s @ 19.5psi
0 - 60 in 3.2 seconds
1/4 mile 11.49@120.2
One of the few cars to break into the 70mph range on the motortrend slalom..
and that's only the stage 2.. the stage 3 puts out 600hp.

Default I think my car would be even faster if it weighed the same as that GTI!

And is it just me or does it seem like this car doesn't get out of the hole that great at all? 0-30mph in 1 second? I'm VERY skeptical...<ul><li><a href="http://www.kwsuspensions.com/r32/HPA_R32_TT.wmv">http://www.kwsuspensions.com/r32/HPA_R32_TT.wmv</a</li></ul>

You're skeptical of the 0-30 time? If it's wrong, then all of the data MT has is wrong.

Our single HPA turbo 24v VR6 GTI is fast. I'm sure the R32TT screams.

Default Yes, I'm skeptical of the 0-30 time and I'm also skeptical of data posted in ALL car magazines.

Let's just say I have first hand experience of how things work in car magazines...
