Well my mail man sold me a really nice 98 Tsi and now I face the prospects of getting back into the dsm scene after 12 years or so of my stuff collecting rust and dust.
The car is currently a fwd with full bolt ons and Chinese 16g and a rod knock.
That said in my collection of dsm stuff laying around is a stroker I built years ago I just tore down and inspected and reassembled getting it ready to go in the car. So my question becomes were to move forward from there.
Block is .020 over 4g63 with the 4g64 crank, eagle rods and weisco pistons.
Stock head with BC272 cams.
Tuning wise I have a black box ecu and cable or alternatively I have a virgin eprom I could socket act. Plus or minus the MafT and GM maf.
I have some 560s ready to drop in or some 660s and 720s that need a good cleaning.
I need to upgrade my fuel pump still.
Act 2600 street disc and Act streetlite flywheel.
I will be awd swapping it at some point I have all of the required parts.
Goals wise is where I tend to get fuzzy. More is always better and I'm not sure what enough power is but I haven't found it yet. I would like to start playing on the road course a few hours from where I live. So suspension and brakes are first on my list. From there is really where I need to figure out.
I have not kept up on what is current for dsm builds so anyone want to give me some suggestions of which topics I need to research again?
