A group of five Volkswagen car tuners came together to build this VW Golf GTI Street and released the news at the Austrian Worthersee GTI conference.  They are all between the ages of 19-22 and this was their latest car study, naming it the Golf GTI Street. This build emphasizes the potential that the Volkswagen Golf GTI presents, and they did a number of mechanical and styling improvements. For performance, the four cylinder 2.0-liter turbocharged engine was tuned yielding 301 hp from the factory 210 hp with its six speed manual. Handling improvements were done as well by tweaking the suspension that has a hydraulic height adjustment element installed.

Worthersee 2008: VW Golf GTI

Volkswagen hasn’t revealed the technical details for this car that was named Golf GTI Performance. The exterior tuning kit, lowered suspension, Lambo doors, and rims tell us that this car was not modified in Germany. The guys from Volkswagen modified this car for design studies and we probably won’t see these design features on one of their new cars. This VW concept was revealed at the Worthersee Tour, the tuning show from Austria that started on the 21st of May and will end in the 25th. The color looks lovely and this Golf GTI Performance should be a great racing car. They surely gave a lot of ideas to the tuning companies that try to modify Volkswagen Golf cars. [click to continue…]
