on my 2000 1.8 i can hit a 14.9 quarter and 0-60 in about 5.8. Up in wisconni i drove it around 140 and it was doin pretty well. Im not too sure about the 2.8 though. Have you done anything else to it?

Is a chipped 1.8T faster then a 2.8? Just to make me feel better, the chipped 1.8T has a lot more problem then the 2.8 right?

i don't usually go over the speed limit and rarely race, but knowing my car is slower just make me feel kind of #$%@#...... I don't understand why that is....

i feel that same way. I dont speed alot but knowing that i could take teh hot shot next to me makes me feel better. I used to have a car like that and i loved showing the hot shots in the Carreras with their girlfriends with them taht they are nothing special.

You still wont keep up with a carrera... or get as much *** as the carerra driver.

Having a chip, so you can surpass usual limited speeds on public roads... isn't wise.
