VW Golf R by O.CT
The Golf’s restrained
character makes it the ultimate sleeper, and the MK VII R is the prime example.
With 300 PS and 380 Nm developed from its 2.0-litre engine, the model in
anything but slow, although O.CT Tuning reckons that Volkswagen’s small family car
could have a bit more oomph.
That’s how a 450 PS and 550 Nm Golf came to be. The German
aftermarket firm is also offering four different stages of tune for the
all-wheel-drive car, ranging from 370 PS and 460 Nm, all
the way to the full fat figure mentioned above.
Furthermore, O.CT offers to install the different performance
levels gradually until the maximum power is achieved, keeping a balanced budget in the process.
Although official power
figures weren’t provided, we can only imagine what a Golf with 450 PS can do, as the stock R can already go from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.9
seconds, all the way to a maximum (and limited) top speed of 250 km/h.
