Okay, I’ve talked or typed to -alot- of people about this subject, and
gotten just as many different opinions. Everyone I talked to said to get
a K&N filter (which I will), and others recommended different brands for
all of the other components. I know that Neuspeed is overpriced, but
aside from that, can somebody who’s seen both sides of the fence tell me
what I should get?
I’m looking at a throttlebody (generic and used), an Autotech "G-grind"
cam, a TT stainless steel exhuast system, a TT dual-lead downpipe (I have
the dual exhaust manifold. Forgot to mention, I have a 82 Rabbit Convert
w/ the stock engine (1.6L?), an upperfront stress bar (which I beleive to
be the most crucial and easy to install, am I right?), and -maybe- a
higher-volume oil pump from Parts Place.
Plz help me out here! Replies via email appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Mitch

actually in my racing opinion, the lower stress bar is more important
than the top in all A1 vehicles as well as the cabriolet (saved my
alignment a few times on hard hits)

I strongly urge you to troll your local wrecking yards for parts. I have
gotten my wheels, large break conversion, even myneuspeed throttle body
used (and cheap!). Just today, I was there and they just got a new Jetta
in ( hit by a train) with only 531 miles!Think of what that engine could
do in your car!Buy cheap, drive fast!
