^ Mine beats them all, a 2004 Vibe with automatic. Zero to Sixty in about 12 seconds, what piece of crap and to boot it has torque steer! figure that!
It good to see Thunder & Darkbrew are still around, have not seen you guys posting for awhile. Must be nice to have a 2008 GTI as a winter beater!

I was at JRP today. For $530, the cost of a modified chip, I can add 50 HP and 60 pounds of tourque!!! I'll probably have that chip installed before I go home from the dealership... LOL

Yours should be at least 240hp/240tq!
Cant turn for **** compare to rx8 tho :P
