Yep, torque.

My buddy has a 2001 Golf TDI that I've had the chance to drive hard a few times.

Believe it or not, it cranks out 149 lb/ft of torque - just 16 less than my stock SVT Contour!

And ohhhhh 55 MPG, with the hammer down!


1998 EO SVT, silver frost, stock
2002 Ashcroft Homes Albany model, that's why the SVT is stock!
