150 hp @ 5700rpm
155 ft lbs @ 4600 RPM
108.7 CID  (1.8L)
9.5:1 Compression

It's a pretty quick little car. Yeah thats my nose lol...

Candy White is the best color on a passat I think. I think it will look good on some black 19's with a touch of dish and a polished lip after i get it lowered...

no way man! I rock it "GrandpaStylz" as it's called on the VWvortex. lol... Slow and Low. Thats the way I ride. Whatever that means...

I guess it is kinda wierd for a 21 year old dood to have (and want, and love to drive) a passat huh? lmao...

pretty good lookin car man.

weird - mine has 168hp, and tops out at 130 (receipt is last time at sebring, with Eric in his e34 540i about 5-
7 feet behind me at 130, his is limited)

first thing first - take off the license plate cover that shows whrere you got it - they don't pay you to advertise for them, do they?  :)

I'm just taking the numbers from the owners manual (HP and TQ) and from where the car cut fuel on me the other night... who know how close they actually are...

Soon enough it's going to get Chipped and a K04 turbo so that will take me up around 250-280hp and raise the speed limiter to 160. I'll be happy with that.

For a 3100lb car i think it does alright already though...

I wish I could still view the pics but I guess due to it being a few months back they aren't live anymore! Drats.
