Bugatti-bashing Golf II kicks out 907kW!
Boba Kettler is notorious for building some of the world's most insane street sleepers, cars that look almost standard from the outside but with power outputs that rival a Formula One car.
Yet most of them are based on the Volkswagen EA827 two-litre, 16 valve turbopetrol four, in early Golf Mk1 and Mk2 body shells.
This is his most poisonous Golf yet, with a gynormous turbo pushing 4.35 bar of boost through a CNC-machined cylinder head by NG Motorsports, to squeeze an incredible 907 kW and 1 094 Nm out of just 1 982 cc, driving all four wheels through a six-speed dog ring transmission by Don Octane – there's no way a synchromesh gearbox could handle that kind of power
It weighs just 1 180 kg and its performance figures are just as impressive: 0-100 km/h in 2.53 seconds, 0-200 in 5.69 and 0-270 in 10.67 seconds – that's quicker than a Bugatti Chiron, a Koenigsegg One:1 or a Kawasaki H2R, officially the world's fastest production motorcycle.
It'll cover 402 metres (that's a quarter of a mile in oldspeak) from a standing start in 8.67 seconds, with a terminal velocity of 273 km/h – and it's street-legal even by stringent German standards. Respect. - IOL Motoring
