Title: 2000 passat
Post by: Dustin on Saturday, March 11, 2006 - 05:17 PM
from your trusty resident VW owner I bring to you the official Passat mods thread lol...

So far I haven't done much.

Gutted airbox, the stock box iis pretty good but can be improved upon. I took it apart and took out all the uneccesary baffles and flaps and crap. Then did the old skool "drill holes in the box on the fender side" trick. lol

XM radio

New tires, Yokohama YK420 I must say I'm very impressed with these tires so far, far more grippy over the BFG's that were on it.

And thats it... so far...

coming soon, 1.5 inch drop, 18's black polished lip, intake, forge 007 Diverter valve.

later on down the line, chip, k04 turbo upgrade, FMIC and thats about it...

I am dying here - I dont actually have a car at the moment - I know what I want, and now I can say I knew what I wanted - looking around now, I am reconsidering - I also have to keep the family in mind, I want to try and be reasonable or the wife will kill me - - -
