drove a 2001 jetta 1.8T today...



Ben,
Now you have felt what I feel everyday! I bought an 01 Wolfsburg Edition 
Jetta to use as my reliable / daily driver car.
It is definitely a fun car to drive, even more fun when you lower them & 
then there is more fun if you chip it.

My first mod to my Jetta was suspension.
I bought a weitec cupkit 60/40 for my Jetta and WOW what a difference it 
made in handling and overall drive experience.  I also been looking into 
getting the GIAC chip, which ups the boost from the 8-10psi stock  to 
18-20psi.
