Re: Calling 1.8T's
Don't have one, but I used to work as a VW tech (now with Audi), but from what I've seen, all you need to do is an ECM re-flash, upgraded intake, 2.5 testpipe/downpipe followed by a 2.5 inch freeflowing exhaust and you're set. Doing 14's in the 1/4, all day long.TWO TON ENGINE LIFT/CRANE FOR RENT
PM me if you need one!!

Im more looking to find out if there's anything that can be done to have more power down low. Other than doing a stroker.Last edited by onepointeightdub; 04-07-2009, 10:03 PM.drive green ||

Re: Calling 1.8T's
get a 2.5 if you ask me
APR 2.5 downpipe / Milltek 2.5 cat-back exhaust (resonated version)
Sounds almost stock when idling and gets a little loud when you pin it with no highway drone.
