Can't agree more, love seeing the expression on their face every time
This is my favorite part of owning a k04 gti
Always some older guy in accord sport or an A4 around here. They all assume my car is just loud and slow. Needles to say they must be surprised when the ko4 kicks in.

why the hell did a VW CC 2.0T continuously pull on me top end on the highway.. it was pretty close but he kept pulling slightly over and over.. thought it would be the other way around.. isn't he much heavier?? appeared stock for sure.. im basically stock also..
oh and previous gen lexus gs350 pulled on me also this morning.. not a good commute.. stage 1 christmas present on deck now.. lol
The CC may have been tuned

This, plus my bicycle would pull on a stock Mk6 Gti.

Complains that he doesn't win while racing with a stock GTI:laugh:
Take it easy K04 fanboys.. not exactly talking about cars i shouldn't be trying to compete with.. the car is pretty quick in stock form..
So I recently added a p&p k04 and p&p HPA IM but am still on low boost file and stock DSG tune (done a week ago as of this post). So this past weekend was my first time really getting to put some time behind the wheel since the new mods.
On my way to Fixx Fest Saturday I found a 05-07ish Carrera S vert weaving through traffic a lil ways ahead of me... so I decided to catch up to him to see if we could have some fun. I followed him cutting through traffic and his first chance of clear traffic he tried pulling away and quickly found me deep in his a$$. We caught up to more traffic and kept weaving through for a while and every chance he got he tried pulling away. Never could even when he had a clear in traffic before me.
Finally I worked my way past him and stayed next to him for a brief moment to find a mid 60s guy giving me the WTF look as I then pulled away. I think it burned him more than I'm in a '12 Beetle Turbo
Just looked up the cars specs and stock it's 0-60 in 4 and 12.2 1/4m so it's no slouch
Tried having fun with a bright orange GTI on the way home but he wasn't interested. Would only drop way back when I got near
Can't wait to put the intercooler on and get the high boost and DSG files!
LOL you kept the kicker to the end. Nice!

Here's a pic for reference:

I'm having a custom front bumper made now that uses the whole lower half of the mkvi r but my fender lines and upper half. Should be done in a few weeks then have to let it cure for a month to put paint protection film on it before it sees the road
He used a wire mesh melted in from the backside the entire stretch of the seam. He grabbed it and just started shaking it all around and flexing all over the place and didn't stress or crack at the seam.
Here is an early picture of it just after bonding the two together.
