$2600 as it sits!

-Evo III 16G
-Hacked Intake with K&N
-ACT 2600 Pressure Plate
-ACT full face organic Clutch Disc
-No name brand Manual MBC
-6-bolt block
-Bottom end has under 40K on it
-Top end is freshly cast with 20K on it
-New OEM copper headgasket
-The engine yields 160-170 PSI across the board
-Transmission I just put in along with the x-fer case and it shifts good
-Slightly ported EVO III O2 housing
-Custom mandrel bent 3" exhaust from the O2 housing to the rear axle where it turns to 2.5" and goes into a magnaflow muffler
-SAFC II
-Walbro 255 LPH fuel pump
-Autometer phantom boost gauge
-New tie rod ends
-Stock wheels with brand new Falken Ziex 512 Z rated tires
-APR head studs
-New head gasket
-New T-belt tensioner (t-belt was in great shape when I replaced the tensioner)
-Suspension is stock
-interior is halfway gutted
-4 bolt rear end
-Stock intercooler with stock pipes and crushed 1st gen BOV
-Custom sheet metal airbox that completely blocks the intake from underhood
-EGR blocked off
-Stock stereo
-Balance shafts removed

Clutch seems to have some binding. It doesnt like to go into gear but it does and the RPM's drop and make a whirring noise when you push the clutch in. I'm pretty sure its either the Throw out bearing or the clutch disc. I have an entire stock clutch assembly that I would include with the car along with anything else that I have that goes with a DSM including all of the interior. Car runs great aside from the clutch I just dont feel like pulling the tranny for the 4th time in 7 months so my loss is your gain! I just dumped 2K into this car after paying $2700 for it initially less than a year ago and putting less than 6K on it in that year!

wow. i hope anna doesnt read this.

anyway, nice choice on a vehicle there, my mom is looking at those right now. she wants a black one. i dunno much about VW, but is that ths exact same motor that is in the '02 passats? her passat now is the 1.8T 5 spd, im not sure the specs but i think its like 180hp. that motor in that little TT would be great. and yes those motors are great for tuning. companies like Neuspeed make everything you could want.

It comes in either a 180HP or 225HP version. Im looking for a 180HP one because the extra 45HP is not worth the extra 4K you spend. I'm buying used however.
