Check out the 2.0t GTI I did
http://www.tc.umn.edu/~frie0271/VW/VW.htm
The pics are big, so I didn't want to post them, but go check them out.
It's a 98 GTI
2.0 8v
T3 turbo
2.5" turbo back exhaust with flowmaster (ATP DP, TT catback)
Techtonics
Exhaust
Turbo Cam
Adj Cam Gear
Turbo Chip
Eurosport
Short shift
Strut brace
H&R sport springs
KYB GR2 shocks
ADR 16" rims with parada spec2s, 205/40
Spearco FMIC (big)
Blitz
BOV
FATT turbo timer
Autometer
A/F
Boost
ATP
DP
Adj fuel pressure regulator
Charge pipes were custom made by SCI (South Central Imports)
Pretty fun car, running around 7 psi. Stock internals. I've got a ACT clutch sitting here for it, along with a metal ATP headgasket, and TT dual valve springs and retainers (been lazy putting that all in.
I did the powder coating of the charge pipes, I plan to do more, but haven't had time lately. The car is for sale, on vwvortex, I don't even know what he's selling it for, around $7500 though, with 80k on the ticker. Sick car, but his Dad got him a 04 GTI VR6 with a 6-spd (SICK!! BLACK ON BLACK LEATHER, with 25 anniversary 17s).

Screw the $$$VR6$$$$
My friends 03' GTi 1.8t with BOV, k&N filter, and APC chip runs mid 14's and has "benz like" interoir !!!
My next car is prob. going to be a GTi. I was thinking SRT, but I already have "toys", I need something nice looking, nice interoir, warrenty, nice interoir, still run 14's with nice interoir, and its gotta have the nice black leather interoir !!
Think the audi TT has bad *** interoir ?? Everything can be swapped into a GTi...
The local VW dealer here in FL replaced my other friends brake ( twice ), clutch (twice), and syncos in the tranny ALL UNDER WARRENTY !!! I have a hard enough time get Ford to replace the POS tranny in my bone stock focus !!! This guys VR6 has all kinds of aftermarket stuff....
Don't hate on the newer VWs until you've sat in one with black leather seats... I perfer the new 20th Anv. rabbit..
I'm not sure of anything short of desial trucks that get 40-45WHP and 50ish FT./LBS. from a damn chip !!!
VW does need smacked for putting that "less the crx" sized turbo on that poor thing...
Did I meantion its got 20 valves like all the new bad *** motor cycles ??

I do hate the focus... I like the looks and interoir, but EVERYTHING ELSE IS A POS..
