[quote=“93z24,post:25,topic:28621"”]

really? I would have thought the 1.8T would be more reliable. I’m going to try my best not to mod but we all know how that goes. I’ll probably just throw some rims on it, do the suspension and just drive it. I can’t have this next car be a money pit like my last one…

Negative, the 2.8 12v is a much simpler setup. Much less going on to go wrong, can handle a good deal of abuse. Modding it is useless though, but for a DD you can’t go wrong.
