Golf VR6 just some general pointers really like power figures - what to look for when buying (if i buy one) what to avoid buying really.

Forced induction seems to be the popular route. Apparently they are strong enough and can take a decent whack of boost before the lid needs to come off.

As i say Golf engine isn't as good as the corrado.
They are very quick once up to speed. Top end 50mph + it was keeping up with my ibiza (200bhp), bit sluggish off the mark.
With VW makes sure it has FSH. Try finding the highline.
