New 7R Development from Peron Automotive. Thought this might interest a few of you. I had an opportunity to discuss some juicy info regarding GTI and 7R development last night with the MD of Peron Automotive. Just to give you some background info on Peron, they developed the Hybrid Turbo kits used in REVO's stage 3 Fiesta ST. They also have Stage 1+2+3 tunes for the Fiesta and Focus plus numerous parts including a mk6 Golf R Big turbo kit. There's some development on the way, without too many spoilers there will be a flash cable included, so you can put your car back to stock on your own, I Cant Wait! Hopefully Peron will become a sponsor in the near future to allow for group buys and such. R vs GTi PP This was done on a dual carriage way, no excessive speed was used. The GTI PP (DSG) in question has an AkrapoviÄ exhaust which according to the brochure bumps the horses up around 11HP. Which i have to say sounds absolutely beautiful on full chat, far better than any after market R exhausts I've heard in fact. My Rs bone stock (DSG). so you'd think this was roughly 300HP vs 241HP. All tests were from rolling starts from around 30mph+ and there was hardly anything in it, honestly I was shocked. As the speed increased it was noticeable that the R would increase the gap but to say the R has quite a big HP advantage there was not a lot in it! Apparently the GTi PP runs much higher HP than the 230HP quoted.. Anyway to summarise, if you want a huge step-up up in performance from the GTi a map is necessary! What are your thoughts / experiences.
