I know it ain't racing if you ain't rubbing, but what on earth are you dinging at 30 mph?
I forgot the 335d has a 1/4 second of turbo lag. So I wasn’t able to get the rear tire far enough from a curb while cornering hard. Usually in an NA engine it’s a given. When I push throttle hard, the rear goes wide by a small amount but not if you have turbo lag throttle response. LOL

Hey Y'all, been a super long time since I stopped by. I sincerely hope everyone is making it through 2020 without issue.
For the uninitiated, I'm in a 2017 Golf Sportwagon w/ 4motion (AWD) which came with a 1.8L turbo charged engine and a 6 speed manual transmission. From the factory the car was rated at 180hp/199ft-lbs.
Well here she is on the dyno yesterday and as the sheet suggests it's making over 400hp and 375ft-lbs at the wheels! I was absolutely floored that my little engine was making bigger numbers than the GTIs and Golf RS that showed up that day. Granted, I have a lot of supporting modifications to make this happen, but a lot of the cars yesterday had similar set-ups.
Hope Y'all are well!
