VW Golf GTI with a Turbo 3.2L VR6

HPA Motorsports used their 30 years of experience when upgrading this 2002 Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk4. Under the hood they swapped the turbocharged 1.8 L inline-four for a HPA FTX500 turbocharged 3.2 L VR6. The motor features HPA TriFlow camshafts, Ferrea valvetrain, upgraded rod bearings, and BorgWarner EFR8474 turbocharger. The combo produces 575 hp (422 kW) and 500 lb-ft (677 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the front wheels through a Clutchmaster FX400 clutch and six-speed manual transmission with a factory limited-slip differential. The car rides on KW V3 coilovers and stops thanks to HPA Motorsport six-piston front brake kit and four-piston rear brake kit. Those are covered by HRE CM300 19×8.5-inch (ET35) wheels with Michelin PS4S 245/35 tires. The interior received Recaro Sportster CS seats with Schroth 4-point harnesses, upgraded instrument cluster, and VAD28 digital display.
