low 16s stock…

i’m not “shooting” for anything other than a good suspension and enough power to be “a little quick”… if i wanted a drag racer, I’d buy an F-body, Mustang, or some other high-power RWD car.

huge aftermarket. more so in Europe, Asia, and Australia, but it’s easy to find parts.

it’s not turbo’d, but there are a few turbo kits for it. it’s just a 1.3 DOHC with a high redline… all the internals are forged, so it can take a good amount of power.

They were called Swift GTI (or Cultus GTI) in every other country on Earth. They were only called GT in this country because VW of America sued Suzuki in 1990 for using the GTI name.
