Could someone please suggest a to find performance parts and accessories for my TDI? I am now the owner of an '02 Jetta and wanted to give it a little more juice.

Thanks,
Richard

Check out http://www.tdiclub.com
As far as some simple things like...
a chip? http://www.upsolute.com
exhaust? replace the muffler with a straight pipe.
Good Luck.

I just rode in a car with an Upsolute chip over the weekend and it is awesome!! Definitely a mandatory mod. I also got to hear a Beetle TDi with the muffler cut off, and it sounded great! No louder than stock, but you could here the turbo whine when the car was started and it had a little deeper sound, too. These are the next two things on my list of things to do.

Does replacing the muffler with a straight pipe void the emissions warranty at all? How about state inspection problems?

If yall have not heard a TDI with no muffler, you should do it.
My friend has no muffler on his TDi and it sounds awesome, when he clutches it to shift you hear this noise wich makes you happy inside.

this, the CCV mod, and the unmentionable mod, are the only other things i am going to do to my car now..
the extra power i already have is enough.. these are just to keep it clean..
actually.. putting in the wheel well vent mod is something i am going to do, but not till it gets warmer..

Nope. I got an inspection sticker with no muffler (and no cat obviously) in Houston when I had my diesel truck.
