isn't the mark 3 a smaller car? with a smaller chassis? then isn't it easier for road handling? with a turbo? then that does sound better but can u put in a twin turbo in there?

it depends on track width, not so much as "smaller". wider and lower reduces body roll against corners. single turbo can be best for top end high hp, while in my experience twins are better for street use. it depends on how you have your car setup. there are just too many combinations out there....

suprra_girl · 05-23-2005, 12:08 PM

i reckon the 7mgte is the worst engine out there for drinking petrol LOL

and they're heavier than the mk4
but i mean c'mon... where did they get the idea for the mk4 LOL... it in no way resembles a mk3 and plus.. the mk3 has wayyyyyyyy more luxury than a mk4

let the flamefest begin :lol:

for the track i would use a mk4.... but for drifting.. altho more difficult... the mk3.. coz it's wayyyyyy more fun lol
