Volkswagen Golf R by Siemoneit Racing - 8.7.2011

Offers up to 530 PS (390 kW / 523 hp)

Siemoneit Racing has unveiled a new performance package for the Volkswagen Golf R.

Designed to increase the model's sporting potential, the package features a new air intake (€449), a revised ECU (€698) and a stainless steel sport exhaust system (€1749). Thanks to these modifications, the engine produces 355 PS (261 kW / 350 hp) and 485 Nm (358 lb-ft) of torque - an increase of 85 PS (63 kW / 84 hp) and 135 Nm (100 lb-ft).

If that isn't impressive enough, the company also offers a more intensive package - with a high pressure fuel pump (€499) and an intercooler (€1199) - that raises the output to approximately 530 PS (390 kW / 523 hp).

Lastly, customers can order a carbon fiber hood and a reprogrammed transmission (€298) that "affords faster acceleration, super-rapid gear changes and even more fun at the wheel - whether on the road or on the race track."

THE BLACK PEARL - by SIEMONEIT RACING

Dynamic, self-confident and determined to go places - SIEMONEIT RACING from Stade gets a whole lot more out of all Volkswagen engines. Especially when it comes to the car's electronics, SIEMONEIT RACING from Stade in Niedersachsen promises more driving dynamics, more performance, more torque and what's more, even quicker and more intelligent gear changes with the S-Tronic and latest generation DSG automatic gearboxes. Sportier gear-changing and fuel-efficient gear shift points make for more driving pleasure while lowering consumption. To achieve this, modifications are made to the electronics in the engine and in the gearbox. Besides the purely electronic changes to the engine and gearbox control, addition technical modifications can also be made.

The Volkswagen Golf 6 from the R20 Series shown here was first of all given a carbon-fibre bonnet to reduce weight. After that, the development of the in-house exhaust system followed in order to bring the new engine electronics up to performance and rpm ranges that are just not possible with the series production equipment. The most important part, in other words the engine electronics, was developed one meticulous step at time, both out on the road and on the test bench. In order to squeeze the last drop out of the potential performance increase, Siemoneit Racing mounted a special air intake which forces cooler air into the combustion chamber for more efficient combustion. The end result is top performance of 355 PS and 485 Nm. But this is not even the end of the story. Siemoneit is able to convert the Golf onto a Monster. Different Hardware modifications will transform the R20 Golf into a beast producing about 530hp. This will turn the faces of the owners of supercars from smile into sadness. The new programming of the gearbox electronics affords faster acceleration, super-rapid gear changes and even more fun at the wheel - whether on the road or on the race track.

At individual clients' requests SIEMONEIT RACING can also programme modifications to the Launch Control, the rev. limiter and the torque limiter on the Volkswagen and Audi platform's DSG and S-Tronic systems. Equally, gear shift points and gear shift times, as well as a number of other settings in the gearbox control can be altered. All this is necessary, if one would like to permit oneself a personalised improvement in performance. No mass-produced goods off the peg - this is adapted precisely to the customer's needs. And for instance, in the case of the Golf R20, things don't end with moderate improvements. SIEMONEIT RACING's portfolio of skills manages improvements in performance well above the 500 HP mark. And this applies not only to Volkswagen models; indeed a design for individual performance improvements to any other manufacturer's vehicle can be prepared in accordance with the customer's needs. Precisely for this purpose, at SIEMONEIT RACING the stainless steel SR20.500.1 exhaust system for the current Golf R20 was developed for performances well above the 500 HP limit. The system starts out at 76mm at the turbocharger with a 100 cpi (or optionally a 200 cpi) metal catalytic converter and from there it goes straight through to the two 90-mm exhaust outlets. The system is made of US405.409 marine quality stainless steel and is indispensable for performance of 330 HP and above. It goes without saying that the system is ready for the TÜV Inspection.

PRICING:

ECU Modification: 698€
DSG Modification: 298€
Exhaust System: 1749€
Intake System: 449€
Center Intercooler: 1199€
High Pressure Fuel Pump: 499€

I think thats a typo and is meant to say 390ps (not KW) Still a serious amount considering standard turbo, maybe a little more than its actually producing as 340/350 is about as much as the original turbo is capable of. Some tuners take liberties with their announced outputs, like running non customer maps with racing fuel and the like.

Actually 390 KW is about 522.9 HP. So this is correct. Still a lot of power for a dull car.

LaGrange - Read my post again -carefully-. I'm aware that 390kw is over 520hp (I use 1.35 conversion as I can also do Nm to lb/ft torque with the same conversion figure) You just cannot get 500+hp on the standard R turbo, so I am summising that the figure they are (mis)quoting - 390 - is meant to read PS not KW ie this car 'probably' has 390hp not 523hp.. (even then 390hp is a bit of a stretch for a mostly standard engine) Define dull car... A car that is engineered so that it capable of making and handling 35%+ more power with very few mods, and is able to worry Porsches, M Beemers and AMGs, then I'd like to see your definition of exciting car..

I seriously doubt thats on stock internals. The 2.0 engine is good for about 600hp but not with standard turbo etc.
