Hmm... Well, just for $hits and giggles. Silver proves it's speed again, vs 360 modena!!!

I dunno the silver 180 that runs around my town wont race me, but then again he said that ever since he put his Blitz BOV on his car it runs like **** in between shifts. Haha ohh well, he should do his research. I may just have to get a vid of us racing so I can prove you wrong...

True it seems like high 11's would be a good goal for me, I hope. It seems like 3-4 years ago if you ran 13.0 you were fast, now its 12's, damm technology keeps getting better. Have to say with the flow, im tired of people thinking that the TT is a rich slow car, but there is always a bigger fish out there.

there are a couple methods. But just boring out the block for 83mm pistons will give you 1.9L, but you basically take a tdi crank with a 2.0 or 1.8t block and get the pin in the piston rasied. but you can find more info here (down the page some)

Well I have done some looking around, and the 007 BIG PORT manifold from Don at Unitronics will be my choice. I havent gotten back on wether or not the tubular manifold will fit on my TT becasue I do have the quattro system. So if they wont the ATP will be my exhaust manifold that I am looking at. Also I may go with the stroker kit from EUROSPEC but I dunno, will it effect the tuning? I mean will I have to get a different tune just becasue its stroked out to 2.0L. I dunno alot of ideas ohh ya and I forgot engine mounts.

You have a small port head, so if you do go big port, you will need to enlarge the openings to match or get a true bigport head (aeb) and will cause you to do other changes aswell. A true big port will outflow a enlaged small port and can still be ported some more. If you are not up to this, just get the small port.
Im pretty sure you cant get an off the shelf tubular manifold, someone in the uk has one in his seat ibza that is off to the side to get around the haldax transfer case, but his, he built for himself. If you get a cast manifold, get the pagparts atp style manifold, it has been shown to fit with alot less effort than a atp cast peice.
A stroker kit like cams will need to be custom tuned. They will throw off how a turbo spools and the engine runs. If you just get 83mm pistons you wont really need to worry about that and you will have a 1.9L. Also you will limit the ability of the engine to rev with a 2.0-2.2 kit. You can make up the loss in spool by reving it out to near 8k.
