How many of you out there have done mods to your MK4 (2.0) and are quick?

Re: How many of you out there have done mods to your MK4 (JettaIzBetta)

i have the neuspeed supercharger and really like it. seat of the pants dyno says I am equal with my brother's vr6. If you want more power than that, i would say go turbo and be prepared to tune it, tune it, tune it, and tune it some more. good luck http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Well, I did an intake, chip, and universal muffler, so my 2.0L is still slow, but with all of my suspension work, in the hills and backroads, I've been known to toast pretty much any Honda, and a lot of Dubs. H&R Coilovers, 17's, sways, a lower tie bar, and a upper strut tower brace will do that I guess.
I've heard through the grape vine that Neuspeed has finally seen the light, and has realized that even $2,500 is too much for that Super Charger. I've heard they're dropping the price down to about $2000. I'd call them and get the scoop on it.
If you want reliability go Neuspeed. If you want to be in the shop all weekend, every weekend to dyno your car and tune it, then go Turbo.
Then again, 40hp more with a Turbo is something to consider. Plus, you get the BOV sound... I LOVE IT! "PSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Thanks for throwing me in there Actually mine is a custom setup by JBE Racing here on Long Island. Basics are its a Garrett T3, Intercooled, running an extra injector & Haltech brain. Coupled with a TT 2.5" exhaust, it is a whole different car- money well spent in my opinion. If you want more info, let me know

Hey Cosmic how much did you spent, and how much HP to the wheels? Thanks http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Well, I dont talk much about the pricing....mainly because its a custom setup & everywhere you go is going to be different. I will say though that I was one of the first on the list to originally get a Neuspeed SC- I pulled my order because doing this didnt cost me much more & in my eyes was the logical choice (not trying to start any debate)
As for hp to the wheels, I only have guestimates right now. I still havnt dyno'd & probably won't now until I do a few other things.... but figure around the same numbers as a chipped 1.8T with some work. Its hard to say exactly, but I have a nice little list of hmmm "accomplishments"....but we can't talk about that on here
