The first thing you want to do to a vw if you are going to drag race it is a Diff. The last thing you want is to blow your tranny, but besides that those vr6 motors can handle lots of abuse on the bottle.

Re: nitrous express Volkswagon VR6 Golf (Evil DOHC)
a guy from NYC came down the my area about this time last year, he had a fully built Passat VR6 engine in his Golf, everything was done, looked STOCK as ****, Haltech standalone with the digtal handheld readout, EVERYTHINg was done to this car, had a 150 shot i think, may have been more, i watched this guy do a 5th gear DOWNHILL, ROLLING START burnout, it was ******* INSANE... pulled otu a dyno sheet, 450+whp (can't remember the exact number), he ran the 1/4 in the 10s, i swear, he pulled the sheets out of his glovebox and showed some of us
hell yes, hook the bottle to that thing

Re: nitrous express Volkswagon VR6 Golf (NCLS1driver)
MSD window switch. The problem with wet kits is if you spray at too low a RPM there is a tendency for fuel/nitrous mix to puddle in the intake manifold. When this ignites you get a phenomenon known as a "nitrous backfire" ... look that up on Google. I have heard of intakes been blown apart, the motors head getting wrecked, etc.
With a window switch you can set an RPM to start spraying at, and stop spraying. This will also help avoid spraying nitrous before you hit the rev limiter ... causing a lean condition and *boom*.
You set the start and stop RPM with "pills" on the window switch. On an Integra GS-R the start pill is typically 3-4k and the stop pill is 7k.
BTW ... your GTI will haul *** with a NX setup at 60 shot.

Re: nitrous express Volkswagon VR6 Golf (evoeone)
I used to hang out with the GTR crew, so I do know if a vw needs a diff or not buddy. If you street race, autorcross or drag race, and you drive your car hard, the tranny won't last more than a month. Ask my buddy xxx008xxx, he just registered on this board too. His all motor golf is going 13.0 @102 currently. As a matter of fact ask the GTR guys themselfes, they all run diffs in their cars.
