You get a lot better mpg with the 2.0t, so it evens out. Now may sure you start roaming the MkV forums in VWVortex, I hear there's a couple of turbo bunnies there.

The AWE exhaust for the 2.5 makes the 2.0t jealous!

Great choice.

Looks great. Definitely prefer the MKV pre-facelift bumper... GTI style.

Those bumper strips removable?

Nice choice... and it certainly doesn't need a tint or lowering.

Tint and lowering FTL. Stock FTW.

Will definitely look 10x better colour matched.
