Mk7 GTI // Gears and Gasoline

Опубликовано 10 сентября 2016, 23:41

It's about time we got a little German on the channel. We've been infatuated with Japanese cars for a while, but some German cars deserve the same obsession. The Mk7 GTI is the prime example of a car for enthusiasts. Volkswagen made the Golf "for the people", resulting in a basic starting point for modifications to go many directions. The EA888 engine paired with the IS20 turbo in the Mk7 GTI is a great platform to build on, and our buddy Philo did just that.

(For the record, Philo told us after all was said and done, his cross-country roadtrip wound up being 10,000 miles.)
