Default Volkswagen forums?

One of my buddy's just got a 2000 Golf GTI VR6, and he's asking me all kinds of questions about what he should do to make his car go faster. Does anybody know any good forum or info sites for the Golf?

-- And if anybody says "If he wants to go faster tell him to buy a [insert car of choice here]," I'll kill you.
Well... maybe not.

why? you can turbo the VR6 and get crazy amounts of again. Say 380hp at the wheel.

There are VR6 jettas running 9s

9.75@144MPH

http://www.atpturbo.com/download/978143.avi

right click and choose save as.

I don't see any 1.8Ts running 9's let alone 10's

Turbo on a VR6 is mad bank. Doing some boltons to a 1.8T is not.
