2004 VOLKSWAGEN GTI 1.8T

Well, I only have an Air Cold Intake and Converter on the car... I don’t know that much about cars, when I gear shift the rpm's take long to drop, which I don’t like, so a friend told me to put a inverter/converter, didn’t work, then they told me an intake will do the trick, and it didn’t. I have added more "cosmetic" stuff on it as the HID's, GTI carpets, change the carpet from beige to Black, purchase the GTI logo for the front grill and the German plate (original from Hamburg Germany).

Now, I have a universal part intercooler in the back of my car that I haven’t being able to install (no $). I want to put a new exhaust system with down pipe of 3' wide, a body kit, nothing fancy but it will give a better round look to it eliminating the black parts of the bumper, like the R32 body kit from same year. Maybe some black rims (17), cd/dvd player in dash and on the head rests, change the leather interior to custom, change the upholstery to black instead on gray... the shift knob and boot, a better sound system, the turbo stage I and II, coilers, drop it down maybe 2-3', change the lights (not the bulbs), put the spoiler in the back, headers, manifold... and maybe a little hand of paint.

And whatever I can do to have this car with more than 500 hp with no drastic modifications, meaning, no one will notice...

Like I said I don’t know nothing about cars but I will love to learn, I’m 25, live in Miami, married and 2 kids 3 and 2), so you know I can’t do this on my own, and later on it will be more impossible to do so. I want to do this now that "I can", please help me out to achieve this dream I have. I love my car for the history it has, you don’t see that much history in a car like the VW, 100 years making cars? They know what they do, and let’s not talk about Audi... (A3). The car I bought it cause that was the car (Golf 96) my brother had in my country (Nicaragua), and it took us everywhere, many memories, I came to the US 4 years ago, and that was the first car I want it to have here, my GTI. I like to know I have the power to beat anyone; I don’t speed or have tickets on my record, but when I run... guau, what a feeling.

cant tell you how good would it feels to give this car in a future to my kids and I know they will take care of it, it will be awesome to have the fastest car around at age 18, they will take care of it... I know I would if my dad had done the same with me.

Well, I hope you help me on my adventure, thank you for watching and have a great day.


Sorry for my grammar... :0)
