bought a newish car. 1991 VW Jetta. good deal couldnt pass it up. picked it up from “Phunk FX”

it looks like this, minus the wheels. i got something in mind for it though.  
its a 1.8ish turbo, 8v head. Haltech SEM, bunch of work, needs a turbo. probably going with a simple 50trim on it. nothing crazy. should be a fun car to go low and slow in. its been 5 years since ive had an old school Vdub, and im glad im back in one

some small plans for it are.

new T3 manifold with a 38mm wastegate flange  
T3.t4 50 trim with a .48ar exhaust housing  
tial 38 with a .6bar spring(8-9ish psi)  
innovate LC-1 wideband  
a cam, maybe euro g-grind, or a 260/264 split, springs retainers and locks  
retune it(Haltech E6 SEM) or mega squirt, haltech FTL

then when i get rich, some era correct wheels… Big red might have a clue of what they are, but 15x8’s remakes, from florida 😉 195-45-15 tires(small stretch)

Audi Hibiscus Red Pearl. you can send all your “looks awesome and i love its” to Phunk FX. hes built the car over the last 7 years. im just gonna tie up some loose ends and enjoy it(i hope) got a great deal, has a MINT Trophy interior. paint isnt quite as good as the picture, but it could look great still, sunroof took a beating for some reason. but it could be a nice car. The Mk4 is on the **done** burner now.

for real about this car Ricky gets all the credit for sure. its his car, im just the new owner of it.

like 12hp now. turbo is smoked… its a built 1.8 bottom end, 2.0 8v head, stock cam. if it were a good turbo, with a good, solid tune, 200-225 shouldnt be a problem, considering a normal 8v puts out 80-90hp stock on a good day, its a healthy gain. car is 2275lb. has a peloquins LSD. tons of stuff coming with it
