and also people say the 130 has more tunability than the 150, i dont know how true that is?
I think fester is saying that if you bought a 130 and upgraded it to match the 150 it would owe you more than a std 150 would?

It would owe you less Glynn! It would certainly have cost me less.
but as devon said, can't the 150 turbo hold power for longer? (don't shoot me)
so if i get this right, you could have less peak power, but hold power for longer and get a higher power/torque reading lower down the revs, thus making the car overall faster. does that make sense?
only way to test is 1/4 mile I suppose. vag thought it was worth it.
Miss understood that completely then, but at the end of the day does not matter what you do to a 130 it will still be a 130 on the reg doc and valued as a 130!

Trust you are being sarcastic Craig as I personally cant see that much difference unless a car has a fault somewhere!

Assuming that people who mod cars don't do it to increase the value ... they do it to increase the enjoyment and if it could be done cheaper, it can only be a good thing? Either way the mods come off when you sell it so it's still relative.
Valid point Mr JJI think what we have to consider is that Strugers is one of the first to bypass the pancake pipe and have his piping all changed to Allards. He hasn't got the boost leaks associated with the stock system and I would put money that makes a big difference.
If one of us 150PD boys changed our piping and bypassed the pancake pipe, who's to say we wont gain another 10bhp like Strugers did? Hit 200BHP...
There is a 150 PD Golf with just a 2.5" Miltek system and a remap who hit 196BHP...add better piping and I'd say he'd easily get 200BHP.
No one knows yet....
