blogentry-133713-0-59820200-1400569881_thumb.jpgWe recently tested the new Volkswagen Golf R and think that it is a well rounded ultmate hot hatch. But I guess there must be quite a few people out there that think that 280bhp is not enough, since Volkswagen is going to come up with a even hotter Golf in the future. Meanwhile, to satisfy those that want more power, they could get Oettinger to breathe some magic into their Golf R.

 

blogentry-133713-0-55721400-1400568551_thumb.jpgSo what do they have for you? How about 394bhp, 498Nm of torque, 0-100km/h in less than four seconds and a top speed of more than 280km/h sound? Pretty impressive in our opinion! For comparison sake, that is a whopping 114bhp more than the what came from the factory and this is the same power output of a current Subaru Impreza 1.6! Torque is almost twice of what a Golf Sport produces too.

In order to get such impressive numbers, Oettinger replaced the original turbocharger with a bigger one plus a new exhaust system and of course a remapped ECU. An optional high-performance brake system is also available to make sure it is able to rein in all that newfound pace.

 

blogentry-133713-0-27763800-1400568331_thumb.jpgAesthetically, Oettinger has given the Golf R a new front spoiler, new side skirts, a tailgate mounted spoiler and some new 19 and 20-inch wheels.

  • A 20-year journey, an old passion rekindled

    For us 90s babies, the Holy Trinity of Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network formed a big part of our childhood. The internet was just about coming into fruition, with the rise of a plethora of websites with numerous entertaining flash games and of course, the early days of YouTube. And though those things have come and gone, one thing in my life remained constant: My love for Pokemon. I first got into Pokemon 20 years ago, and I remember exactly how it went down. Let me set the

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 7)

    Ok, the title might be slightly misleading, but there is still a Japan-link.  So, pufferfish. Specifically, a wikipedia entry called Pufferfish mating ritual.  Long story short, one particular species of pufferfish make complex geometric circles in the sand to attract a mate. And this particular species is found only in Japan.  It's beautiful. It's bizarre. And it's absolutely amazing.  From the wikipedia entry: In a 2014 documentary by the BBC, narrator David Atten

    Journey to the West: First Steps in Southwestern China, Pt. 1

    It used to be that when a person was visiting China for the first time, the natural choice was Beijing. No better way to learn about a country than a visit to its capital, amirite? Having had their fill of Peking duck and climbed the Great Wall of China, the next places they would likely look at are those on the east coast - Shanghai, Nanjing, perhaps Harbin. In recent times though, the southwestern parts of China have gotten much coverage on social media. Chongqing, the country’s largest c
