I once took a look at underneath the passenger seat ... there are so many connectors and cable ties, I didn't even try to remove it ... I'm wondering how heavy it is.

A 1.6 60ft on a night with a good DA is your 11.6.

After a bit of research I have found that this is not the quickest FWD stock turbo car BUT it appears to be the quickest "Non-stripped" almost full weight FWD stock turbo car in existence.
The only car I have been able to find that is quicker is a full race prepped Neon SRT-4 with stripped interior, A/C delete/power steering delete, no mirrors etc. It ran a 11.58@119. Link: http://www.srtforums.com/forums/f56...n-93oct-pump-gas-11-58-119-video-link-658985/
But regardless, he has the quickest non race prepped FWD stock turbo car that I can find right now. Id also like to thank him for his service and if someone starts a kickstarter or whatever I will pitch in.

that dude did it on pump gas too. wow....but that this is fully race prepped.....I don't doubt this car would go as fast race prepped that way
If his main focus is drag racing, not sure an IC is what he'll want most...?cuper steve

@LeGti - you're right. He should be spraying meth, its better for shorter sprints. The IC will already be heat soaked as he waits in line, crawling to the stage the car.

I actually mentioned this to him on Vortex, he said he was going to talk to APR.
Then I assume he got deployed.

Much respect for Tyler - Great job breaking into 11's!
People tend to forget that my main goal is not for myself but for the VW performance community.
Tyler contributed with that great time!
My day is March 5th at the Texas Motorplex, Ennis.
As for the "not high 11's fast" - I would be disappointed with an 11.85 - goal is to break the 10.95 stock turbo, stock block, stock head 4 cylinder world record, currently held by an SRT4.

Alright March 5th is the date, I (and the members here) want to see time slips for proof that you have the fastest stock turbo GTI, non of this "unofficial" stuff you keep posting.
I read your latest posts on your car, thats a tall work order but if you can pull it off then maybe you have a shot.
Prove me wrong WOLF, hit low 11's / high 10's.
I mean, based on the OP's times not even using an I/C or meth injection, it looks like mid low 11's is DEFINITELY attainable with great traction.
I have a hard time seeing mid 110's being enough for 10's though, and most of our GTI's are trapping 112-114 tuned. A jump to 120 is a huge increase in power. That looks like it may require an IS38 swap.
