and on the note of gti6's being 'down on power' Just about every dyno readout I've ever read has them between 165-175 if well maintained. I realise they're knocking on a bit for age an mileage, but I don't believe they were over-quoted when put on sale... Or not by a noticeable amount anyway...
No not anoyed, just up for a discussion as id genuinely like to see some of these "175bhp as standard" GTi6s or the dyno it was tested on as mine would be at least 150bhp by that measure.
Most of the GTi6s ive seen done are somewhere between 148bhp and 155bhp.
Also you say not by a noticeable amount, most of the GTi6 drivers I know who have had a low dyno have thought they were making about the right power before the dyno was done, so they didnt notice they were down ~25bhp, so 25bhp could be construed as not being a noticeable amount.
Out of interest what is yours making seen as you look after it well.
