Cant wait to see how this goes!!!

[AdamD]

Love your work Guy! I want!

[Guy_H]

Thanks for the comments fellows, should have it running later this week - a few out of house things have to be done (all suspension bushes & the rear exhaust).

Looking forward to taking it for a spin again!

Manual gearbox for this insane job?! What do you reckon the DSG can real world handle by a normal "I dont smash my car at every chance I get" kind of guy?

[Starlooker]

This is very exciting, I am very interested in hearing about how the car goes with that kind of power.

Can't wait to see this beast! Love the white, it's going to look sooo clean. Shame they didn't release the TR option here.

Elsewhere Guy_H had mentioned that he wanted to get the DSG "just for fun" this time. But as this was from the first batch of Golf R's, a DSG version wasn't available with the other specs he wanted. So yes, this is a manual.

I've enquired previous with Guy_H about doing a Stage III upgrade on a DSG equipped car, and he has let me know that APR have done many Stage III upgrades on Audi S-Tronic and VW DSG gearboxes without issues. If you planned to track it regularly, upgrades should be persued, but for every-day-road-use, it's fine.

Btw, if you want to see how much the DSG can really handle, check out the YouTube - APR Stage 4 Development Teaser - UPDATED! Now With More Runs!
And yes... that speedo is in MPH

Awesome beast Guy.
Hopefully the exhaust will allow anicer note than the stock R as they were a bit wussy at the training day until under boost.

Can't wait to see a Twin turbo kit for these, hopefully HPA can do something like that.
