Siemoneit Racing has unveiled a new performance package for the Volkswagen Golf R.

Designed to increase the model's sporting potential, the package features a new air intake (€449), a revised ECU (€698) and a stainless steel sport exhaust system (€1749). Thanks to these modifications, the engine produces 355 PS (261 kW / 350 hp) and 485 Nm (358 lb-ft) of torque - an increase of 85 PS (63 kW / 84 hp) and 135 Nm (100 lb-ft).

If that isn't impressive enough, the company also offers a more intensive package - with a high pressure fuel pump (€499) and an intercooler (€1199) - that raises the output to approximately 530 PS (390 kW / 523 hp).

Lastly, customers can order a carbon fiber hood and a reprogrammed transmission (€298) that "affords faster acceleration, super-rapid gear changes and even more fun at the wheel - whether on the road or on the race track."
