I have a 2000 GTI GLX and want to make some modifications to the suspension and also would like to add a chip to get a little extra kick at the lower end of the rpm range.
Suspension - Currently the car has a stock suspension setup and has
205/55's, the wheels are 16.5 inch vw wheels. The rear end of the car sits a little higher than the front. I'd like to lower the rear to get the car level front to back. I'd also like to see if I could get a little more lateral stiffness in the car as well, while also (if possible) maintaining about the same general ride characteristics. Looking for any shock and/or spring suggestions from anyone who has had experience with this sort of mod.Chip - I'd like to get a little more push at the low end of the rpm range. An overall horsepower boost would not be a bad thing either. Can anyone give me advice on chip mods, perhaps an exhaust and/or intake mod to enhance the Chip's effect???
Any shops in the NJ/NYC area that do VW after market work??
As you can probably tell from my questions, I'm a novice at this sort of thing. Thanks for any help in advance.
Cheers all.
