There is smone in this part of the woods that run the Gti engine at 216 HP at the cranck, with a turbo upgrade...
Wow looks really tidy. I’m surprised it fit under the Polo’s bonnet looks really good. The extra power must come in handy. Must surprise a lot of people on the road.
Did the engine need a lot of work in order to add the turbo because of the high compression?
I assume those bolt on jobs are only for a 16v and won't last aslong as the normal engine would! (i remember my mates renault 5 turbo, he went through 4 turbos in 35,000 miles )
