Volkswagen Sport Tuning delves into every aspect of performance tuning for water-cooled VW cars, including the Golf and Jetta, Passat, Corrado and Scirocco. It only goes as far as the A3-generation Golf and Jetta models, but it remains a valuable reference work.

Each section goes into technical detail on the full spectrum of performance components and modifications, including suspension, wheels and tyres, brakes, inlet and ignition systems, engines, exhausts, lubrication, the driveline, interior and exterior modifications and safety.

The technical editorial provides all the information needed to undertake any modifications, as well as photographs, diagrams and dynamometer graphs.

Aside from the cover, the entire book is in black-and-white, proving its status as a purposeful workshop reference.
