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.

  • A sole-ful tribute

    Car enthusiasts are an emotional bunch. So, I naturally develop feelings for things on wheels, be it four wheels or two. However, I was surprised to discover that I had become attached to my old pair of sneakers, whose soles are so worn that it hurts to wear them.  That is the unequivocal signal to retire them. But I must say "Thank you" before bidding them goodbye. The laceless design is convenient, saving time when you need to rush off in the morning Through thick and

    Titan's Fall: Back to Square One

    Manchester United have once again signalled a restart with the sacking of Ten Hag, and just days later, announced the appointment of Ruben Amorim, who will join midway through the first half of the current season from Sporting Lisbon. Back to square one yet again for the Red Devils who, despite being one of the most successful clubs in England and biggest clubs in the world, have not won a league title since Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement in 2013. Since then, they’ve gone through a whole ho

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 5)

    There are plenty of strange sports in this world. People running from bulls. People running after cheese. Power Slap.  But of course few places do weird quite like Japan. Introducing to you: Bo-taoshi.  The name means 'topple the pole', and that's exactly the name of the game. Except of course its never quite so simple.  You want teams? Oh, you get teams. 150 players, split into 75 offensive and 75 defensive - one holding your pole up, the other attacking another team to topple th

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 4)

    I recently finished watching Shōgun (yes, I'm a little bit late to the party). Released earlier this year, Shōgun has become an utter revelation - going on to win 18 Emmys at this year's Primetime and Creative Arts Emmys, making it the most awarded single season of television in history. It's also the first non-English-language series to win Outstanding Drama Series.  And it truly is outstanding, fully deserving of all the awards that it has garnered.  As you would expect, the show rev
