German tuners Motoren Technik Mayer has introduced a new package for the 2009 Volkswagen VI GTI. The result is to make it almost as good as the 2010 VW Golf R for a lot less money.
The most important update is the adding power. The standard Golf VI GTI comes from the factory with 210 HP 2.0 Liter TFSI four cylinder engine. Thanks to an extra air filter, and updated ECU tuning, the MTM boosts the engine to an impressive 270 horsepower and up to 390 Nm of torque. This boosts top speed to an electronically-limited 265 km/h.
In order to handle the additional power and provide better stability, MTM offers a new set of matt black 19’’MTM Bimoto light alloy wheels wrapped in 235/35 19 size Continental XL Sportcont tyres. A new Brembo braking system is also installed with 380mm discs and 8-piston calipers.
The MTM tuning kit will set you back just under €30,000, while the upcoming Golf R starts at €36,400.
