Ahrweiler-based motorsport and tuning specialist Alpha-N Performance has announced details of its program to suit the outgoing Volkswagen Golf R.

Developing 195 kW (265 hp) from its 2.0-litre FSI engine as standard, Alpha-N fits an EVOX Systems chip tuning box along with an EVOMS sports air filter system and turbo-back stainless steel exhaust system, which results in 246 kW (330 hp) being sent to all four wheels via the six-speed DSG transmission.

Chassis upgrades comprise a fully adjustable “Road & Track” Öhlins suspension set-up, while the factory alloy wheels are superseded by lightweight OZ-Racing Ultraleggera HLT items. Finished in gold they measure 8 x 20-inches and come wrapped in 235/30 rubber.
