well we would need to see a pic of the engine it self. (or if oyu take a kwick look at the top of the engine it will say like "2.0" "1.8T' and so on)

and as far as the mod's there are several out there i just need to know what engine it is.

ok well in that case the first thing you can do which is cheep easy and free is....

open up your air filter box and on the top of the filter box element there is a apx. 6inch long tube there. TAKE IT OFF all it does is restrict your air flow.

that will give you a bit not a whole lot to see a big diff or beat someone in a race (but its one step closer)

ummmm other things for free... not a whole lot just clear your intake of unwanted stuff.

and for the first things to buy... cold air intake, exaust, and go from there....



there is so much you can do to this car but i would start with the stuff that i gave you first (that is the cheeper easyer stuff to do)

LOL! i was talking about spending 200 dollars on 1 item and then 200 more on another, not like 2k all at once! the turbo would be wonderful but what comes before that
