**nismo-z** · 01-16-2007, 07:20 AM

hello guys, i dont know much about ls1 but i know there no joke, just a few bolt ons and you can gain alot of hp.

my question to you guys is this, can a jetta 1.8 turbo with 200whp beat a stock ls1?

Not to knock on Jetta's but I don't think for a min stock for stock a gls can hang with a ls1, but that's just my opinion

They may handle good, but No way. That was the stupidist 3 pages of BS that I have ever read!!!!

**SSTODD** · 01-16-2007, 07:54 AM

Is the LS1 driving in reverse???

**99blueZ** · 01-16-2007, 07:59 AM

there was a video that i watched - its such BS. A GTI with 1k mods supposedly beats a cammed LS1. No fucking way. Complete shit.

Stock to stock, No way in hell

I'll race any stock VW (obviously not counting their sister company), shift on odd gears only, and still put $500 on the line...

If that arrogant over-confidence isn't clear enough, then a simple no will have to do.

well, being german, i have to say i can't be patriotic in that case:
no way the VW won, judging from my experiences at traffic lights and on feeways over here.
Wet weather from a stop: first 50 yards, maybe, but then...

Never beat a fucking VW a Z28. Some fact's VW Jetta 2,0 Turbo: 200 HP (no WHP) at 5100 rpm, Torque 280 NM, 0-60 mls 7,5 sec., Weight around 1400 KG.

I think the Camaro driver was flooring his in 6th. That made it a close race!

**Ripper415** · 01-20-2007, 12:56 PM

yea the jetta will whoop the ls1....until the ls1 gets traction lol.

**twozs** · 01-21-2007, 09:24 AM

I think this is totally inappropriate!!!
Herr David Hasselhoff is a shining figure in Germanys culture, making fun of him really offends all the good people of my home country.

Appologize at once!
