So me and my vw buddies were discussing the turbo the gti came with and a question came up. Why didn't vw just put a k04 from the factory? Plenty of other cars before it's time came with them (ex: cobalt SS) and ran perfectly fine. Also the gti would've been ahead of its time regarding power and would've been up to speed in the later years. Was it just that extra couple grand (guessing) that vw didn't want to add to the gti to maintain its reasonable price point? Did they think their customer base wouldn't like/ be able to handle the power of a k04? I just don't get it
