RE: madcows....test drove a GTI today....
Well, it is *only* 200HP. There are plenty of reversible ECU (the engine management computer) mods which can provide nice power gains while still maintaining reliability for like $500. Some allow for performance/economy mode selections right from the steering wheel buttons to account for different quality of gas or desired fuel mileage. Very slick. This is ahead of the mitsubishi and subaru tuners who are still trying to decompile the engine management program.
