What do you think, my 84' 305 Camaro or my friend's 09' VW City Jetta?

 

Well I walked a 1.8 turbo jetta last year with my Mazda, and in all fairness my Mazda is a second or more faster than an older 305 and about as fast as a newer TPI 305 manual/TPI 350 auto.

I would put my money on the VW if it's the turbo but there are any number of lesser motors it could be packing.

 

the 1.8t engine is one of my favorites, it's so easy to get decent hp without even putting any big money into it. i was spiking at 21 psi with mine, although i was prolly getting the same amt of hp at 16 psi. i rlly miss my GTI

 

i have a '89 305 tpi and had a '02 GTi 1.8t tuned a little bit and as my camaro sits, the GTI would spank it fairly easy. I beat older 5.0 gt's at the track all day in the GTI. but also my iroc is running rough atm.

 

Its not a Turbo Jetta. I looked at it a few days ago and its pure stock.

 

They come with a turbo purely stock if its an 09 it would 2.0 pretty stout little turbo motor have an 09 gti and I catch plenty of cars napping with it

 

If the new series is similar to the old then there will be many possible engines in the car. An N/A version of the turbo for example. I dont know if the 2.0 is a larger version of the 1.8 or something new but it's a fair bet that the N/A base motoe will be pretty slow.

There is also likely a V6 version and a diesel/turbo diesel variant.

 

I know they could come with a stock turbo, I just meant that his was a stock non-turbo Jetta and its a 4 cyl but I'm not sure which size.
