HPA Motorsports from Canada offers two street-able packages for the VW R32. Stage I
The R32 factory engineers have beefed up clutch components, enlarged the exhaust diameters, throttle bodies and the valve train over previous 24v configurations. With this in mind, HPA Motorsports designed Stage 1 system to retain the stock catalytic converters, clutch assembly and exhaust system.
Fully upgradeable, the stage I offers a driving sensation associated with most exotics without the exotics price.

Stage II
Building on the components used in the Stage I, Stage II grows the performance figures outside the believable realm. Tested on pump gas, Motortrend pealed off a 3.2 seconds 0-60 mph and an 11.4 seconds 1 mile. Being able to launch the R32 at nearly 6000RPM requires HPA Motorsports' special dual ceramic clutch and the motor breaths through a sensational 3.5” exhaust system. HPA Motorsports' Race catalytic converters break down the exhaust gases, while race grade connecting rod bearings ensure the longevity of the bottom end.
Component list (plus all Stage I components):
- 1.3 bar (19 psi) boost
- Upgraded 70 mm Down pipes
- Twin Hi-Flow Race Grade Catalytic converters
- 3.5” (88mm) Exhaust system with Special secondary bypass valve
