Golf GTI V 50

Come to think of it, why would you bother chipping a car there? There are no open roads like here, would be flat out getting over 90Ks wherever you go on the island and can travel the length of the island in less than 40 minutes!

Yeah but a few ks away, and you're into Malaysia. Some fantastic roads over there. Don't know if I'd want to get caught speeding there (mind you it can't be worse than Singapore).

WOW thats cool

Gives all of us our best glimpse yet of R20

Less then 30 minutes if you chip the car

i dont like it.

looks a bit silly and try hard. like a mullet. except its busines out back, party up front. maybe they shouldve done something about the wheels? just looks wrong. nup.

i guess with a stage 1 bringing it to 186kw its still got the K03.

id much prefer the Pirelli or Edition 30 for the K04 and other bits.

I wonder what chip they use? I'd guess Bluefin/Superchips as VWR use them in Europe.

I dunno. I'm just guessing.

dont like.

Only if the car has wings to fly over the other traffic!

think its same wheels as the pirelli except the pirelli has standard brakes and not the r32.

if you want the bigger brakes. high power. wheels etc in one package its called the s3

Any more and the Singapore Govt would probably want to tax it even more!

Nah Singapore's a fine city.

You get fined for anything.

One itersting point is the car is covered by VWs warranty to quote from thier web site - "These tune-ups and more will be performed by Volkswagen Centre Singapore’s technical experts – using genuine and approved parts and technology – and are covered by Volkswagen’s 3-year warranty."
How come Aus can't do something like this? APR/Bluefin/GIAC can you maybe do a deal with VWAus?

Marketing?

Its a catback exhaust only & who knows what standard they rated the HP at? SAE / WEG / DIN? It had to meet some very strict local government laws.

If any of those 3 companies made a deal with VW Australia... They would be a hell of a lot more expensive to buy and install!

[mikepologti]

Not sure on that.

I do know that the GTI cost over $120,000 USD in Singapore.

no wonder they ride pushbikes

Last time I checked my car doesnt have a massive bolt-on air-dam........

Im surprised the golfs here don't come with massive bullbars and mudflaps.
