I saw this jetta in front of me on the way to the grocery store and happened to catch him at a perfect light. It had some fake *** badges on the back (can't remember what it said, whatever the vw version of dinan is...) and it also said 20V (which is stock). It was a 1.8T cause I could hear his turbo spooling but I really thought he would pull me cause face it, my car isn't that fast and he has a turbo and about 50hp on me, plus more torque. I'm also guessing he was completely stock because it was quiet, not even an exhaust.
I started about a half car ahead and we both take off slowly, as soon as I saw him coming up in my peripheral vision I punched it in first. We were both pretty much dead even but I wound it out to 8k and managed to pull ahead on every shift up to about 80-85 in third (whatever redline is). It was really satisfying to hear his turbo blow off after every shift (even tho it sounded weak as ****) and still be ahead. He immediately took the next left turn as I went straight. I just really enjoy beating virtually brand new cars with my 20 year old bucket. My first turbo kill

 

nice kill

 

Good kill. I ran a stock '04 GLI from a roll and was dead even, then killed him from a dig.

 

Nice job man

 

yayyy, now go find an r32 and get'em on the highway

 

Not to try to sound like a dick, but a friend of mine's stock '94 Automatic Accord ran even with a stock '00 Jetta 1.8T

 

im not tryin to sound like a dick either man but das bs . 94 automatic accord , even with a 00 jeta 1.8t . ya ryte i would say hella no .

 

1.8Ts are slow cars.

I can't find specs for the Jetta, but the '03 Passat 1.8T has a 0-60 of 8.2 seconds, quartermile in 16.3.

 

Apparently it is pretty ******* slow if I can stay in front of it... But it still has a turbo and I don't.

 

Turbo's don't mean everything, go race a Subaru XT!

 

A Passat is considerably heavier then a Jetta, which is what the guy who made this thread raced.

 

ya but im say accords are freakin slow . u shouldnt even race that thing. lol

 

Who cares?

He won and his car is so sexy!

I can't get over how sexy it is. Streetport that ******!

 

ya his car is sexy , and from the search's i made on gsl-se people claim that puttin a full system exaust and intake takes the fb to the high 14 - low 15 sec in the 1/4 , which is amazing .i will aslo soon lookin for a gsl-se or a t2 fully stock once i save up the money for it .lol. but much rather have the gsl-se and toge with dat **** . i love cars that can take turns

 

It needs a streetport and/or a turbo sooooooo bad....

Give Me Your Money!!!!!!!!

I literally will have 20 bucks in the bank after I pay my rent for this month.

It's tough to spend money on a car you drive about twice a week when you don't have enough money to eat.

and low 15's/ high 14's from the rb exhaust is bullshit. I'd be happy if I knew I was actually breaking into the 15's LOL.

 

KCGSLSE, was that jetta a Wolfsburg Edition?

 

yeah, go race an 18 wheeler, they have **** bigger than a t88 and run like 700hp

 

well kcgsl-se ur car is rated at 15.9 lol so in consideration with ur mods u should be in the low 15's brotha .

 

Take in mind compression loss .

But yeah keep it NA! Kahren streetport with 9.7 rotors.

I'de love that in a SE. Nice car though.
