Senden tuning specialist BBM Motorsport has released details of a Volkswagen Golf V GTI project created for a customer, real estate agent and model Andrea Friedrich.
The 23-year-old racing licence holder was seeking extra performance for track days, so handed it over to BBM for the company’s Club sport treatment. Increased power from the 2.0 TFSI was achieved thanks to the fitment of an Audi S3-spec K04 turbocharger, optimized ECU software, an enlarged intercooler and Supersprint exhaust system. A ZF/Sachs Motorsport clutch replaces the factory item. Those changes see output rise from 149 kW (200 hp) and 280 Nm of torque up to 251 kW (336 hp) and 460 Nm; enough for a 0-100 km/h time of 5.1 seconds and a 275 km/h top speed.
Chassis upgrades come in the form KW Club Sport coilover suspension with adjustable strut bearings, a Stoptech brake system using 355 x 32 mm discs with 4-piston calipers, and a set of 8 x 18-inch ASA TEC wheels wrapped in semi-slick 225/40 tyres.
Inside, there’s a pair of Sandtler racing seats and harnesses, and a Wiechers roll-cage. Finally, the body has been covered in a matt baby blue foil wrap by Jaded Design.
BBM is offering this conversion to Golf GTI owners at a price of €19,500 – plus installation.
