my boy told me that this kid got an engine from japan and modded out his si and has almost 400 hp..plus he said it was in import tuner..is this shit for real?
Saw an article about a 500hp twin turbo V6 New Beetle in MotorTrend. Total cost (car included) was $65,000 and consisted entirely of VW and Audi off the shelf parts. No aftermarket, no specially created parts. 0-60 4.25 sec 1/4 mile 12.99/102.41mph.
And these mods can be done on any current-model Beetle, Jetta, Golf/GTI or Audi TT.
yea its just basically a turbo kit with some internals work and a boost controller...
the 400hp is peaky as fuck though, that car will only run low 13s... while yes this is fast... the power band is really unstreetable and 400hp on a lot of other engines would be much faster.
