I believe that this is the link you need....if not then my bad :P

as for the quarter time, 200 lbs is alot of weight in the back. On top of that, its a AT. I would say that the best mod for you right now would be the final drive mod. Do a search to find more info. Besides that, i would say maybe spray, or go turbo, or do the MT swap. Hope i helped at least a lil bit. Good luck :thumbsup

Any one have a link for the A/t to M/t conv. Also, my friend wants to sell me his 91 Talon Tsi for $100 the motor is perf. as I worked on it to get it running and on our first test drive we slammed it into some lady at 60mph (we had no insurance, registration and the wrong tag on the car luckily I knew the cop) and now the frame is bent....anyway back to the topic. can I use all the turbo parts off that to turbo my car with the exception of the exhaust manifold (anyone know where I can get one cheap?) It's got a TD05 on it and its in good cond. or if I do a turbo kit anyone know where I can find pics or info on installation procedures, I already tried searching on here.

Thanks

Uhm....if it's a 1g it has the 4g63 correct? I thought we couldn't use the transmissions from those engines in our cars
