I ain't saying I am an expert but if both are stock you shouldn't have a problem
but only one way to find out race him and tell us how it goes and good luck!

This section is reserved for actual STREET RACING.... No bench racing allowed......You could open a thread in the non-specific forum but you most likely get GO RACE AND FIND OUT......


Now that thats been said Jetta FTW......

2004 Jetta 1.8 turbo - 180hp/173lb.ft. 2771-3034lbs. depending on style

97-03 Grand Prix 3.1 - 160-175hp/185-195lb.ft. 3400lbs.

As you can see the Jetta has the advantage even with the heaviest body style. Jetta owns GP 3.1 stock for stock all day.....

These are the engines available for the 2004 Jetta according to several places I looked....So I'll stick to my original post until Gotian tells me there was a 1.8 n/a in 2004....

Available Engines:
100-hp, 1.9-liter I-4 (diesel)
115-hp, 2.0-liter I-4
180-hp, 1.8-liter I-4
200-hp, 2.8-liter V-6

I didn't look at the 04 part, I just knew that VW in some years had a 20V NA 1.8 4 banger.

Gotian wont be posting for you see I killed him and ate his skull. Yes his skull! I skined it, boiled it till is was just the bone then i covered it in a towel and smashed it with a sledge hammer till it was powdered dust then I threw it in the blender and mixed it with some flower and cookie dough and then I oven baked it and ate it.
so yeah....sorry.
