VW Golf Wagon Gets R32 Conversion And Huge Turbo, Packs 1,080-HP Punch

Posted on

Turn up your volume and listen to this heavily modified fourth generation Volkswagen Golf wagon. It produces 1,080 horsepower (805 kilowatts) and has a giant turbo. The result is an amazing sound.

This car comes from Denmark, and the makers did an insane job to make this engine. He took the drivetrain from the Golf R32, which is the all-wheel-drive version of the fourth-generation model, and moved all the components into the wagon. But, that’s just the beginning.

The R32 comes with a naturally aspirated 3.2 liter VR6. Bore cylinders give this one closer to 3.3 liters of displacement, and there are upgrades to the crankshaft, rods, and pistons. The large Garrett G42-1450 turbo and wide-diameter air intakes take up most of the engine space. The only minor thing about this vehicle is the fuel cell, which is in the rear cargo area.

The gearbox is from the fifth generation Golf. However, it has conversions to work sequentially. While driving, the driver must use the clutch during gear shifts, but shifting gears without lifting is possible at full speed.

To cope with power, there are Haldex limited slip differentials for both axles. The brakes are from the 2006-2008 Audi RS4. The suspension includes a KW V3 coilover.

The full speed pull on this beast looks like a violent experience due to the noise and fast acceleration. You can see passengers being pressed into seats, and the people in this video clearly love the experience.

The same channel did a separate video (above) showing this R32 racing against a tuned Audi RS6 with 830 hp (619 kW). You might think a 250-hp (186-kW) difference would give VW a distinct advantage, but the situation is much more complicated than that. Its massive turbo can’t actually spin from launch, so the underpowered Audi is actually a quarter mile faster. They then race off the reels, and even then, the R32 wagon doesn’t fly the RS6.
