99 GTi 2.0 GLS with Custom Turbo

(This is a picture the day I bought it)


This GTi was bought in August 2000. The car was used for 6 months then traded on a 1.8t when I bought it. It had 8,000 miles on it when I got it. After 2,000 miles I knew that I had to have more power out of the 2.0. I put it in the shop for 3 months and had it completely transformed.

This is a list of the options that the car has...

99 GTi 2.0 GLS - Flash Red
5-Speed Transmission
Power Windows/Locks
Leather Package
Power Sunroof
15" Stock rims
Some Kind of Fulda Tires 195/55/15

I still have the stock wheels, suspension, and a set of painted eye-lids that will go with the car.

The car had 10,000 miles on it when I put it in the shop. This car is a serious sleeper. It has never once seen the track so I have no idea what it runs.
It runs at 14psi every day. The turbo can put out over 27psi, but the ECU is only setup to run 16psi MAX. With a little tuning and a few ECU and fuel modifications, it can handle tons more boost with the current modifications. There are no oil leaks and it DOES NOT smoke!

What kind of times do you expect from this car.

Clean title? Why are you selling it? Thanks.

 

Thanks for the reply... I answered your questions in an e-mail... I've been out of town the last few days. There isn't a dyno anywhere near Shreveport so I don't have any numbers. It has the ATP stage 2 kit components on it and according to ATP it's supposed to put out 200-220hp. I can tell you it's got a ton of torque. It could use a good dyno tuning session, as could every turbo car. Anyone have any other questions? Anyone have an offer?

Nice car to good home...

 

Oh and it has a clean/clear title. The reason I'm selling is because I just wanted a new project, I can't stay with one project for very long so I picked up an EG hatch with a swap.

Oh, I just remembered I bought an extended 5 year warranty when I bought the car in 1999 so it should expire around August 2004.

 

I would sooo buy it if it was a 1.8t.

One thing I don't understand is why would you prefer a 1.8t to a 2.0t? Is the 1.8t that much better in design? What stops you making more power from an engine .2 liters more of displacement then with a 1.8t?

 

Isn't the 1.8t a 20 valve where as the 2.0 an 8 valvein stock form?

 

I think the car runs low 15 as is but i bet a dynotune will bump it to hi 14s cose it is running a litle rich. "kinda lika a honda". the car is in Shreveport Louisiana 2and 1/2 hours from dallas

 

i need some help with a carfax for this car ths

 

Its a reliable turbo car from the factory that can handle more boost easily. Plus there wont be any tuning issues to deal with. Stage 3 1.8t on racegas can run high 12's as well. Plus they are still VERY reliable.

 

bump cose i got to sell any offers are welcome.
