Hello fellow VW enthusiast, meet my MK4 1999.5 fully custom turbo GTI VR6 which represents all the best of speed, style, and sound! When I say custom, I mean there is NOTHING stock about this car... $20,000 in the engine bay and drive train, $20,000 in custom paint and body work, $10,000 in the suspension, brakes, wheels, and tires, and $5,000 in the interior and sound system. This beast is ready to plaster you into the back of your seat and is currently tuned with full stand alone engine management to over 400 whp. The motor is fully built top-to-bottom and ready to make over 600 whp if you so desire. The car has been transformed into a real wide-body (not using a body kit) with all body moldings and door locks shaved and has a custom black and siLver two-tone paint job along with Audi door handles. In addition, it has huge Porsche brakes, a fully adjustable coil-over suspension, and staggered wheels and tires for an aggressive stance and fly-paper adhesion to the road. Add to that tastefully done black alcantra door panels, headliner, and pillars with a great sounding custom sound system! Everything has been done meticulously and to the highest standard. The car runs and handles great and will make a true enthusiast very happy. The chassis has 82,485 miles on it, but the engine build only has about 7,000 miles on it. The stand-alone engine management system is Lugtronics (Megasquirt) and gives you full control over tuning with my Dell laptop which is included with the car. You can easily monitor and adjust every parameter of fuel, ignition, etc. and document the results via the Mega Viewer program. You also have control over launch, rev limiter, NOS, or any other output. There is an RS-232 data cable inside the car which connects to the included Dell laptop and has all the tuning and documentation software on it. Just plug it in and start tuning with this amazing software! This car is absolutely incredible, but since I am very particular, I think there a few minor things that you should know about: the gap between the front bumper and fenders is not perfect and there are some minor stone chips (the car has been driven and is not a trailer queen after all). In addition, there are two pieces of trim missing on either side of the radio/climate control in the dash and the back window tint has a bubble in it. Other than that the interior and exterior are immaculate! Also, the back seats have been removed but are included with the sale of the car. Well it's time for the CHA-CHING portion of the listing... Here are all the parts and modifications on this one-of-a-kind vehicle: ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION: 2.8 Schimmel stage 2 CRATE long block, ported and polished head 8.5:1 JE pistons, Schimmel Performance rods New lifters, retainers, timing chain, guides, and tensioner All 3 VF polyurethane and billet engine/tranny motor mounts Kinetic exhaust manifold Schimmel Performance short runner intake manifold Garrett GT 35/40r turbocharger (1.06 ar) TiAL 38mm wastegate Custom front mount intercooler and piping 42 lb./hr. fuel injectors Lugtronics (Megasquirt) stand alone engine management system with Dell laptop included Greddy Type-S blow-off valve Rebuilt transmission with Peloquin differential Greddy Profec B Spec I electronic boost controller GHL 3" Stainless steel exhaust with hi-flow catalytic converter Custom 3" heat wrapped downpipe Optima Red Top battery New O2 sensors SPEC Stage 3 clutch and flywheel Schimmel Performance Stage 2.9 DSS axles INTERIOR: Garrett boost gauge with New South single pod New OEM black carpet Black alcantra headliner, door panels, and pillars Euro head light switch Rear seat delete (Stock back seats included with sale of the car) Pioneer CD head unit with accessible USB jack for digital music play back Infinity front door and rear speakers Infinity capacitors and crossovers Custom flush mounted subwoofer enclosure with 10" JBL sub Custom side mounted JBL amplifiers (2) EXTERIOR (all body work professionally done): Custom two-tone black and silver paint job Custom boser grafted onto hood Euro Gear R32 front bumper Euro Gear R32 rear bumper Wide body pulled/extended fenders (done perfectly) Shaved hatch Shaved antenna Shaved all body moldings Entire body smoothed Audi door handles Hella smoked tail lights In.Pro projector angel eye head lights Smoked marker lights 35% window tint BRAKES AND SUSPENSION: ECS Stage II v2 Porsche 13" front big brake kit Rear cross-drilled and slotted rotors Weitec Coilovers New upper strut mounts and bushings WHEELS: 19" TSW Kyalami staggered wheels (8.5" front / 10" rear) Toyo Proxes tires H&R wheel spacers So, basically all you need to do is put gas in it, step on the pedal, and try not to destroy the car or kill yourself! hahaha This beautiful thing is wicked fast and a blast to drive and is worth every penny!

1000-hp Mk1 VW Golf is terrifyingly cool

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

There are plenty of things to love about the Mk1 Volkswgen Golf. The machine's horsepower isn't one of them. From the factory, the little hatch cranked a breathy 112 horsepower from the most robust form of its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine. Boba motoring, however, has taken that figure and multiplied it by a factor of nearly 10. If 1,000 horsepower sounds terrifying in a machine with a wheelbase of just 94.5 inches, it should. A massive Garrett GTX4202R turbo force-feeds the little mill through a tweaked 16-valve KR head. The crew calls the beast the 16Vampir, and we think that's fitting.
Of course, we'd wager you quit reading right about the time you set your eyes on that headline. Those of you who've stuck around this long can point yourselves below to see the maniacal creation in action. You won't be disappointed.

Former Porsche CEO Wiedeking indicted over VW takeover bid

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

Do you recall the failed efforts by Porsche to take over Volkswagen? According to a Bloomberg report, former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above) and ex-CFO Holger Haerter have finally been charged with market manipulation over the exercising of options as part of the German sportscar manufacturer's ill-fated attempt to take over the much larger VW. That failed bid eventually resulted in the reverse coming true - VW swallowing Porsche.
The charges leveled by Stuttgart prosecutors come after a three-year investigation centered around allegations that Porsche execs made a concerted effort to increase the company's share in VW to 75 percent in preparation for a hostile takeover. Porsche had previously told its investors on at least five occasions that it had no intention to buy VW.
Portions of the investigation have subsided, according to prosecutors, citing an inability to prove certain improprieties with a "necessary degree of certainty." The number of charges is down to 5 from a previous 14 counts regarding "information-based market manipulation."

VW exec calls US ops a 'disaster'

Thu, 23 Jan 2014

Today in the Tell Us How You Really Feel file we have Bernd Osterloh, head of Volkswagen AG's Group Works Councils and member of the company's supervisory board, labeling the company's US operations "a disaster." Why? Because Osterloh believes VW of America doesn't have the models it needs to be competitive here, hasn't been decisive enough about its plans and German higher-ups still don't understand the US market.
In truth, the top labor rep at the German conglomerate is echoing sentiments we've heard from VWoA executives for years, and there's been the same commentary from dealers: Germany doesn't pay enough attention to what the US market really wants. Even ex-VWoA CEO Stefan Jacoby, who preceded the recently departed Jonathan Browning, said early in his tenure that one of his tasks was to get his German bosses to start delivering what the US market demanded. New CEO Michael Horn is saying much the same thing seven years later, telling Sky News that it has to increase "the speed at which we bring new models to the market and innovation to the market."
Osterloh wants to get "more models" here, including a pickup truck, but we'd wonder if the economics have changed from when Jacoby said they'd need to sell 100,000 per year to make money. Osterloh also wants a decision on where the CrossBlue will be built. Although it looked as if the Chatanooga, TN plant would get the call, the Puebla, Mexico plant is still in the running because of lower operating costs. No matter what happens right now, Osterloh thinks the situation won't get better for another two years when revamped models arrive, but at least the company can start taking the steps for a better US future.
