Modified RS2 article...
The April issue of the UK's Performance VW magazine has an article about a
highly modified RS2. It's claimed to put out 478 hp and 440lb/ft of torque
at 31psi -- yikes! -- of boost. It's also claimed to do 0-100k in 4
seconds, with wheelspin all the way through 1st and 2nd gears, and top speed
is reported to be 196mph at 7700 rpm, thanks to taller gearing.
Although I'm a teensy bit skeptical of the performance claims, there are a
few nice photos of the car so it's definitely worth picking up a copy if
you're an RS2 fan (like me!) or just want to see how to make Dave Eaton
jealous... ;^)
