Help me get to 400whp for now, then 500whp later.

Our standard Vortex will be perfect for your goals. Remember that you also get package pricing when you order turbo, accessport, and tuning together.

Hi Ed, I have been all over your site recently. Still piecing together the other parts I need. Let me get my motor and tranny mounts in, and decide on MPI or HPFP, and then I will be placing an order.

Another question that's worth asking:

Does making a 500hp GTI make a lot of sense?

 

[PacDawg]

No offense meant but it sounds like you're in way over your head and want bragging rights to say you have a 500 hp car without really knowing what goes into it. Get ready for a lot of broken parts since it doesn't sound like you have plans of doing the other things that go along with this like axles, mounts, brakes etc. Go drive an is38 gti, I'm guessing you'd probably be pretty happy with 380hp. 500 gets really rowdy, can't really ever use that kind of power on the street anyways. Tire spin city unless you're using slicks.

My 2 cents, good luck.

Are there upgraded beefier axles available for the mqb platform?

I'm on stock axles and not running upgraded brakes. Although I'm only at 465whp this setup has been fine with 122k+ miles on the car. I launched a shit ton of times alhough I'm on slicks when launching and have BFI stage 1 mounts. Mounts is very much recommended along with proper tire when launching but upgraded axles isn't really a thing for the MQB platform. I don't track the car or do canyon runs so stock brakes are fine for me as well.

500whp is definitely doable on stock internals but it's borrowed time at that level, especially if you really beat on the car.

MPI.

You want 500+ don't waste time and money with HPFP.

Its in his sig.

DSG

Those clutch packs do naturally allow slip on thier own though even tuned. With a crazy launch on a 6speed it’s possible.

so it’s good to know of a possibility on where to get them.
