you'd be suprised at the power you'd pick up from I/H/E and a good chip. after that you'll be spending big bucks to go fast .

vr6's can handle a 100 shot all day

Tom-Guy

I daresay VR6 can handle more than 100 shot if it's tuned correctly. Those are stout engines, I wouldn't mind one in a RWD configuration running not-VW drivetrain.

im on my second CEL in 9 months of owning my gti, im still happy with my car. i know ill never get respect on here for it till i go gt35, but i love how it drives.

jinxy

gt35 wont get you any respect either :P

just don't dump your car to the ground, throw in a plad head liner, run ultra wide wheels, stretch tires to fit the wheels, paint calipers burberry,listen to things like swiss cheezing air boxes, listen to ---- ANY of those sponsers say, buy ecodes, run a boser hood, and do ---- legitly instead of doing the typical homosexual accessorizing as if you were playing with a doll then you'll be alright


no ::thumbsup:: either, negativity is where its at

Takes a bit of work, but the AAA vr6 engine barely fits into the bay of a 914. Seen it done. Nice little 1900lb ride, 911 susp/brakes bolt up pretty easy, trannys are the expensive part, spring for a G50 from a late 911 SC if you can afford it. 915 tranny can take it, probably cheapest way to go. The car i saw was built for cone chasing, but could have easly been a drag car.

I knew a guy who had a 4 door Passat or Jetta who had to tie the rear two doors together with a rope because they would open on their own while he was driving.

why not an AFP, not that its any better(aside from lower miles), just curious. i know the IM is that huge plastic POS but everything else is jusy about the same or can be switched over

I know a guy that has a CRX that smokes, sunroof doesn't close (opens great), smokes, and has a bunch of ---- wrong with it. The guy is me.

What's your point? My VW has 62K on the clock, and I haven't had one thing go wrong with it. Nothing, not even the typical VW ----. Not one burned out light, bad MAF sensor, no smoke, nothing. And I wail on that poor bitch. I've had 2 new hondas, and this "piece of crap VW" has been more reliable and much quicker than either one of the hondas. I'm getting over 210 whp 230 wtq (mustang dyno) on stock internals/turbo/tranny. I prefer VW's, but Hondas are great too.

I guess what I'm saying is, who cares if you "knew a guy"?

Tom-Guy

GT35E are alright, the GT35R is some ****** ---- though.

Let me guess, all 01+ cars? Yeah, let me tell you bro... those aren't Hondas. Soichiro's dead, give up.
