2004 Volkswagen Mk4 Golf R32 Supercharged 3.2l Vr6 on 2040-cars

Awesome VW, 2004 MKIV R32. Many performance upgrades, including:
Stage 2 VF Supercharger with intercooler (you can see the big intercooler hiding behind the low center grill) Methanol Injection. Metered according to boost, using a Snow Performance injection controller. Meth tank/pump are mounted in the rear hatch area. Oversize stainless exhaust. Adjustable coil-over suspension. Slotted and drilled brake rotors. This car is super fun to drive. On the track, it'll run with much more expensive cars. Previous owner (I think I'm owner #2), did almost all the upgrades, and claimed ~450hp, with race mode loaded into the ECU, on the right fuel. I'm won't claim a HP number (haven't dyno tested it), but can attest that it is a VERY strong runner. Lots of recent work - including new alternator and battery, new serpentine/supercharger-drive belt, new oil pump and bearings, new clutch, new dogbone lower motor mount. The pictures speak for themselves. And the sound (turn it up!):
Direct video link (embedded video doesn't seem to work for some mobile devices): Video. From the VIN, ebay automatically extracted some of the vehicle details. Rest assured, this is no longer a "naturally aspirated" car. In the interest of full disclosure, let's list the known flaws: - The tint job on the windows could use a re-do. - It's 10 year old paint. So, it's got a few nicks, door dings, tired clear coat in a couple spots. But it is certainly presentable and drivable as-is. (it's just not new-car fresh) - Previous owner had the rear seats out (lighter weight for racing). I am still missing the drivers side lower rear seat. I may still recover the original from the previous owner; but - if not - have a source where a near-new replacement can be purchased for $65, including shipping. - It appears that there was, at one time, a big subwoofer box in the back. Wiring is still there for it; but I don't have the sub, box, or amp. - I haven't had this car long, and to be honest, don't know as much as I should about it. For instance, I haven't played with the flashloader. So the new owner will get to figure out a few things dialing it in for his or her preference. Car is located in Salt Lake City, UT. It's stored at a shop, and available for inspection. I can help facilitate shipping if required. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Mercedes gets F1 efficiency, EV charging in Vermont, VW e-Golf to use Bosch
Mon, Jul 14 2014Efficiency equals performance, especially in the case of Formula 1 racing. The Mercedes AMC Petronas team points to several key efficiency technologies it uses to get the most out of its cars. And if their utter dominance so far this season is testament to this relationship, perhaps we should pay attention. Mercedes highlights hybrid tech, turbocharging, aerodynamics, lightweight construction, tribology (both in making internal components and lubricants more slippery) and simulation as crucial to getting around the track faster than anyone else. These just happen to be some of the same things that make the cars we drive on public roads more fuel-efficient. Learn more in the press release below. It's a good read. Brammo, maker of sweet electric motorcycles, is teaming up with TEAM Industries to make drivetrains for electric vehicles. TEAM, which specializes in drivetrain technology, will also become an investor in Brammo as part of the partnership. "The electric vehicle market is a growth market," says TEAM CEO and President David Ricke, "and TEAM and Brammo will be providing a wide range of solutions for OEM manufacturers." Read more over at EV World. Vermont celebrated the installation of a new EV charging station as part of a Green Energy Corridor between Boston and Montreal. When finished, drivers will be able to make the whole trip in an EV with access to charging along the way. For $5, customers can charge their vehicle in about 30 minutes at the Red Hen Baking Company in Middlesex. There are currently only about 700 EVs on the road in Vermont. The state has a goal to get 90 percent of its energy from renewable sources by 2050, and getting more EVs on the road is crucial to that mission. Vermont hopes that expanding the charging infrastructure will convince more people to go electric. Read more at Vermont Public Radio's website. For it's new e-Golf, Volkswagen will use Bosch chargers for home installation and ChargePoint stations at its dealerships. Bosch will have various 240-volt options for the home, and will also provide installation. e-Golf customers will also get a free ChargePoint membership, and will have access to the company's network of charging stations worldwide. The 2015 e-Golf goes on sale in the US later this year. Read more in the press release below.

Bentley considering diesel engine for new SUV
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Turns out, in case you didn't know, the rich are just like regular people. They too are concerned about the environment, even when tooling around town in their super-luxurious Bentleys. So the automaker is weighing the idea of offering a diesel engine in its SUV offering, which could help satisfy customers' demands for more fuel-efficient engines.
Chairman and CEO Wolfgang Schreiber told Autoblog in a roundtable interview at the Geneva Auto Show that the automaker is researching whether or not a diesel engine makes sense for the brand. Bentley, owned by the Volkswagen Group, could in theory use a diesel engine from anywhere in the Volkswagen Group family. We at Autoblog have hopes they'll revive the V10 TDI used in the VW Touareg until 2010, but ever-stricter emissions laws would likely make that problematic.
But rich people aren't so much like us that they'll be worried about petty things like pricing. Schreiber admitted the diesel engine could be a $15,000 option, which he said customers would probably find "acceptable." Given that the cheapest Bentley today starts at $177,000, typical customers probably won't be diddling around worrying about an extra 15 grand.
Editors' Choice: Top Five 2013 Geneva Motor Show Debuts
Fri, 08 Mar 2013We've returned from a very busy week in Switzerland, and in going back over all of our 75 stories from the Geneva Motor Show, our editors have gathered up their personal favorite debuts from the European expo.
The wonderful thing about the Geneva show is just how wide of an array of vehicles are on display - everything from funny little one-off EVs to the most exotic of supercars to, well, truly ridiculous displays of coachbuilding. And because of that, this list of our editors' favorites might not be as predictable as you think.
But we don't want to give anything away just yet. Scroll down to have a look at our team's favorites from Geneva.
