Old VR6 mods on new 200hp VR6? Can I?
I have a new 2002 200hp VR6 Jetta. I'm wanting to pull some more power out of it. Do i have to wait a few months for new mods or can I use exaust, intakes, chips and other bolt-ons for the already existing VR6 mods?
Also, What are some good Bolt-ons under $200 US?

So I can use the same mods? There are no major changes? What about chip, would it work?

Get a Ferrari.

Ferrari's warranty is not nearly as good as VW's. It's a matter of reliability!

dont even mod it, not worth the cash. Get a rear sway bar, and some coilovers... Now you wont have to slow down as much durning turns... which means youll be fast

The eibach kit will NOT void the warranty according to my dealership(it is the only one covered on the new MKIV's), as far as power, my brother has been a mechanic for 15 years and the best you can do right now is the intake and exhaust. Dont buy an already built exhaust(costs too damn much), I had mine built by a local shop for about $270-all stainless, magnaflow muffler, 14" resonator with dual magnaflow squared oval tips(very loud at first, but now sounds great). Having one cusom built is the way to go, plus they can flush the tips just right if you have an aftermarket rear valance to complete the look. I will post pics soon if I ever find a good price on those elusive RH Cup Wheels at a good price. The intake is a matter of preference, you can take out the mesh screen feeding to the throttle body and drop in a K&N or just go cold air intake for a racier look. Do a search on that because home depot is the best place to buy custom intake parts

Thanks for the advice guys. I have currently put together an intake myself. It has mega flow and cost me $40 US and looks nice. I'm going to check out some shops in my area for some custom exaust. As much as I want to get a new suspension I cant do it. I would feel the fool if I got a new one this soon after getting a new Jetta with the sport kit. I do see some sway bars and 19"/18" rims soon after the exaust though.
BTW - where do I get this quike shift chip? sounds very interesting!
