Default What can you do, to turn it into a street driver's car ?

Greetings

I wanted to know what you can do, to turn the car into a fun street driver's car ?

I do not want a race car.

_________


I know you can modify the car into a 2 wheel drive configuration.



Can you disable the power steering ?

Manual steering (in my opinion), gives cars more positive feedback and feel.

Any thoughts ?

Thanks

Install H&R sway bars, it will change the car.

you may have the wrong car if you want manuel steering and RWD

for the TT street driving, get an ECU flash, sport exhaust and intake, PSS10 coilovers and an SSK

I know you can make the car 2wd.

What about manual steering ? I love the feel of manual steering.

I also like a stiff suspension.

Or my favorite, a 964 turbo (1991, 92 or the almighty 1994!)
Oh, just remembered, the 964 turbo might have too many modern conveniances.
If you want a real handful, build yourself about a 450 HP twin plug 930...that will give you plent of
opportunity to row that manual steering

Seriously, follow the suggestions Tom gave you(get an ECU flash, sport exhaust and intake, PSS10 coilovers and an SSK). And then, take the car to a DE. I will bet that will change your appreciation for the car...
