What Does Golf GTI Stand For?

No doubt that you have heard of the Volkswagen Golf GTI, but do you know what the GTI stands for? The automotive industry likes using acronyms to describe the various models whether it relates to its intent, its design or any other reason that could be behind it. In the case of the Golf GTI, the GTI acronym signifies something to do with its performance aspect. The GTI usually stands for something like Grand Touring Injection, Gran Turismo Iniezione or some other variation of that term. In the end, it is used to signify the inclusion of a fuel injection system.

The GTI acronym, in the past, has been used to signify a grand tourer or Gran Turismo sports car that had fuel injection. The Golf GTI name reinforces the Golf GTI's sporty engine and performance features as well as its premium and performance driven design.

Benefits of a Fuel Injection System
Fuel injection systems are becoming more popular for those who want the best performance from their engines. The main benefits of a fuel injection system is that the amount of fuel and air can be perfectly released and then injected into the cylinder according to the conditions of the engine. Fuel injection results in higher power output, excellent fuel efficiency and much lower emissions. Fuel injection technology has become a standard for modern vehicles and in terms of the Golf GTI, the GTI acronym has become associated with the high performance of the Golf GTI.

Transverse Vs Longitudinal Engines: The Pros And Cons

The way in which an engine is orientated can have a huge influence on the rest of a car’s design. Should the car be rear-wheel drive? What size of engine is expected? Are there space issues that could influence which way the engine lies? All these questions have to be answered by the engineers responsible for the car, as the powertrain setup can have a large impact on how the car goes, handles and stops. Looking at front-engined cars, the two possible orientations are longitudinal and transverse, with each having its own benefits and drawbacks that can govern which is chosen for the car at hand. In-light of this engineering decision, here’s a basic guide to the features of each engine layout and which is best for different applications. Transverse engines Transverse engines are mounted perpendicularly to the direction of travel, lying horizontally within the engine bay. This is predominantly used in front-engined, front-wheel drive setups but has also been implemented i

How Twin-clutch Transmission Works (DSG)

The dual-clutch transmission, also known as the Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) or twin-clutch transmission, is an automated transmission that can change gears faster than any other geared transmission. Dual clutch transmissions deliver more power and better control than conventional automatic transmission and faster performance than manual transmission. Originally marketed by Volkswagen as the DSG and Audi as the S-Tronic, dual-clutch transmissions are now offered by several automakers, including Ford, Mitsubishi, Smart, Hyundai and Porsche. DRIVING A CAR WITH A TWIN-CLUTCH / DSG TRANSMISSION. Twin-clutch equipped cars do not have a clutch pedal; the clutch is engaged and disengaged automatically. The twin-clutch transmissions bridge uses an automatic-style shift selector with a traditional P-R-N-D or P-R-N-D-S (Sport) shift pattern. In "Drive" or "Sport" mode, the dual-clutch transmission operates as a regular automatic. In "Drive" mode, the transmission

VolksWagen Jetta Mk4 Custom Coupe 4Motion R32 Twin Turbo Build Project.

VolksWagen Jetta Mk4 Custom Coupe 4 Motion R32 Turbo Build Project He and his mates were out hooning in a borrowed MK4 R32, when they hit a 30-mph corner at 100 mph. They survived, the R32 did not. But the 4Motion lives on in a MK4 Jetta coupe. You heard right. The ol' Waterfest/H20/Motorstadt crowd may recall 1552 Design's Project X, which the shop chopped a Jetta sedan into the coupe many wished VW would build. This Kiwi project employs the guts from that lost R32—the carcass of which the builder acquired from the previous owner—in the service of a Mk4 Jetta Coupe 4 Motion R32 Turbo build. A noble effort indeed. As Builder explains, to build a MK4 Jetta coupe, you must take the doors from a Golf three-door hatch (they're longer), move the B-pillar to accommodate the new portals, "then fill in the gap between the door and the rear quarter panel." Easy. ----------------------------------------------------- This video purpose is to tell world about amazin
