where to start

[candela]

I just bought a 92' tsi awd thats perfect... I have a total of 5,000 to stomp honda's with but am so cunfused where to start with all the reaserch I ve been doing. Performed all the free mods, got intake but want to go huge now and am not sure where to start. I was thinking 20g with supporting mods... my goal is high 11's to low 12, daily driven. Sorry for being so lng, but any help would be gretly appreciated!!

next step after intake is exhaust.. Im assuming youve already changed the plugs and wires?

[candela]

Yes, plugs, wires and ffilter. Im really just basically unsure of which set up to go with as of turbos. Do you think I should go in steps, as opposed to one big shubang?

 

[larryd]

yes, definitely in steps.. if you go in one big shabang you could encounter problems and not know where to look

 

[candela]

do you think a big16g would be suitable for high 11's, or would it be better to start with a 20g so I dont waste money in the future... sorry if this is newbie crap but im already here, I just only have experience with hondas, thanks

-------------------------

so maybe by looking at that you get a better idea.. I think 11s are possible on a Big 16g.. obviously a bigger turbo would be easier to get there..

 

[Formz]

The world record for a big 16g is 11.5. You can definatly do it with a 16g, but ofcourse it will be a little bit easier with a bigger turbo.
