Default Engine Modification Question

I am getting close to purchasing an unmodified 2001 TT and was wondering what performance modifications give the most bang for the buck. Would it be a chip or perhaps a new intake/exhaust? Any help here would be appreciated.

Scotty,

Exhaust, Diverter Valves, short shift kit, wheels, Bilstien PSS9's. All these will give you hapiness and trouble-free miles. If you want more bite out of those brakes, you might do some Pagids.

trust me first get a euro pipe so your car sounds the way it should also ads hp have an 01 I hated it the first time i drove it felt like a slightly fast toyota .... not real fast. but after mods I love it had lots of cars this is the best hands down!!!!! chip will give you 65 to 85 hp ....headers 20 to30. ssk is a must..evo air box will also help i did all this to mine and love the car. oh get to know a guy named kevin he has all the answers for turbos you will want to change those.. have fun and watch your rear view for cops!!! oh get a good radar system i have an intregated bell tronics (ONE WORD ?)

Another mod thread...OK...I must agree with omega. Europipes are by far my favorite mod (I turn down the stereo now and then and just listen), chip, pss9, intake, dvs, SSK, GT3 seats all well worth it. I'm thinking of kevin's turbos in the "off season". Of course a stock turbo is just plain sick!
