      Default New Guy From Australia..

      Hi Guys,

      Just saying hello from Sydney Australia,

      I have a 2008 CW R32 Golf that has the FT495 single turbo kit, I have run
      11.89@114mhp and 0-100 3.9sec..

      My car has completed in a Tuner Challenge, coming third out of 22 cars.

      At the moment i am about to upgrade to a R36 Twin Turbo with 640HP

      Here are some photo's of the beast..

      Too funny. I was at HPA's offices when the magazine was delivered. That was a damn fine showing, too bad the numbers for the dyno weren't all screwy or you would have taken second from a GT2!

      If you go to HPA's site, Nik has scanned the entire document onto their website.

      Just so people know... the FT495 in the Mk5 runs the same setup as Blackjack for the Mk4 R.

      you could make an r32 650hp with a single turbo with the right build the 3.6 with twin turbo's will easily do 650hp and less stress on the engine that the 3.2 doing the same HP would have.....

      i couldn't imagine a car with 0-100mph in 3.9secs!! the doors would fly off! lol...


      either way, 0-62mph in 3.9 seconds is pretty damn special!!

      Anthony, welcome to R32OC! We have quite a few FI .:R's on here but they're nearly all MKIV guys. In fact, I think you might be the 2nd MKV FI person on the OC (See Dazm - Rotrex charged for the other person).

      Awesome car chap! It would be great to see a vid from an Aussie GTG. A comparison drag race between you and a standard MKV would make for amazing viewing (hint hint lol).

      Welcome again

      Hi Slapbladder,
      I know i could get 650hp out of the 3.2engine, but i am looking for some thing that will drive everyday without missing a beat and not being stressed to much.
      I have done nilly 20000km on my turbo kit without a problem and just love the way HPA do there kits..
