In the U.S. I'd go with HPA if I wanted to TT a R32

A stage 1 with 515bhp/515ft-lb of torque would run about $25K and a stage II would be about $30-35K. This would be in addition to the $30K for the car itself of course.

has anyone taken a golf R32? my homie just got a blue one.. its his dream car haha.. and yeah just wanted to post something about it. he took off on an M5 and the guy gave him a thumbs up.

how about SRTs?

or STIs?

any other car you mess with or wanted to mess with you? haha yeah random post
Sorry, but no way to compare the E60 M5 with the R32. I own a 2007 M5, a 2006 130i manual and a 2004 Golf IV R32. I really like the GOLF for daily use but it is nothing compare with the others. The 130i is much better and always won mine R32 ...

Reviving this thread b/c last week, I was at VFE looking at the S/C for the 545/550. I was given a tour of the place and there was a R32 that had just completed a dyno run. It had the VFE Stage 2 S/C on it putting it at over 500 hp at the crank! The car is stealth. Nothing about the car screams S/C. I'm not messing with any R32's in OC that's for sure.

No sweat man! Overall driving experience is better in your case.

PS: Good that you revived the thread. Went waaaay off topic.
