the turbo will be laggy as hell... no good for rally... and the headers make a world of difference...

and the inlet and intake would make a world of difference.. especially the inlet...

and BTW, if i plan on rallying, i can't go 2.5L.. WRC requires 2.0L motors...

Just save up cash for a turbo swap. When I turned 18 I spend money on beer and such. Do that.

ok... well first of all i never said to go 2.5l and second of all, my responses were all for performance modding, if i knew before that you were wanting to rally, you should just stick with a tbe and a good intake that wont suck water and mud and spend all of your money on suspension and tires.

umm... as far as the inlet, they dont do that much, they just free up cloggage and give a nice good flow of air into the turbo without collapsing. there is probably more gains in an inlet for people that are still running a maf pre turbo...

VF39 laggy as hell on a 2.0?? I thought you'd need an aftermarket turbo inlet so that it wouldnt colapse on itself when you'd do a big turbo upgrade. I didn't know an inlet could make hp...

Weren't you just crying abt having to upgrade injectors and fuel pump? Now you want 300whp on a stock turbo?? Good luck with a stock turbo, 2.0L, and stock fp/injectors.

I'll be very very lucky to hit 300whp on mine.

i am running a pre turbo MAF...

and yes, thats y i don't want to do turbo swap.. save money for rims and tires.. and a short ram for the intake so i can block off the holes in the fender and keep from getting nastyness in the intake...

i have a good suspension lined up already..

I'm sure you wont notice it, especially with your 2.0.

Save your money and do it right or just spend your money on video games or something!!
