  • The Jetta stays... but she's going under the knife!

    Some of you already know... after visiting Concept-1 earlier today... I have decided to keep my Jetta and not sell it to buy a BMW. In turn, this winter, I will be purchasing an APR Stage-III turbo kit for my motor.



    Go here: http://www.goapr.com/VW/products/about_tvs3.html for more information pertaining to APR Stage III!

    On 100-octane race gas, I should have just over 338HP and 325lb-ft of torque!



    Or I may just have to settle with 290HP and 296lb-ft of torque on 94-octane.



    Photos of the installation and write-ups will be posted as progress is made. Stay tuned!

                    You should pre-purchase lots of new tires. :mrlaugh: Congrats!

                              HPA can do you a twin turbo 24v VR6 setup with 4motion and 6spd trannie for like something like 30gz US.. its so crazy i doubt anybody could seriously do it unless you won the lotto.. but it would be fun having a 500HP car with awd that goes 0-60 in like 2 seconds flat
