Iv vw buggy weighting 470 kgs with 218 whp. But lack of controllability forces me to plan new projects... Maybe tbo lotus would be good for next project.

(sorry about my english)

It uses the VAG 6 speed 02M box. The are a nuber of reasons we aren't using the DSG box.

It's at least 55 lbs heavier.
It's unreliable above 330 BHP.
The chances of getting it to talk to a Motec ECU are low.
And lastly, it won't fit because the casing hits the chassis.

Apart from these issues we'd love to use it

All the best
