Faster Golf GTI in the works

Interesting quote "Ulrich confirming that its chassis, specifically the car’s electronically controlled differential, which is similar to the E-diff on the Ferrari 458, is capable of handling up to around 250 bhp (187kW)."
Any tuning of these engines is going to be nudging or surpassing that even on stage 1.

Could the Ed40 be the Golf GTI Carbon we heard about earlier perhaps?
Might be worth waiting for

The Carbon is still a long way away, sort of like the MK.6 GTI Cabriolet compared to the normal GTI. It'll appear towards the end of the Golf 7's cycle life, maybe a year before the arrival of the MK.8 which will employ greater use of composites, active aero bits as well as new technology drivetrains. The Mk.7 Carbon will just be a "technology demonstrator" for their new models later on.AUTOBLOGAUSTRALIA : http://autoblogaustralia.blogspot.com.au

Originally posted by zoomda View PostThat's a concern really. I find it odd that the cars current power output is so close to the limit of the diff.
take the DQ200 7 speed DSG as an example. It was rated 250Nm max and based on our experiences with shudder and lack of reliability I reckon that rating was right.Skoda Octavia Mk3

It would still have a large safety factor engineered into it.
