oh, so it was just once. I thought it was daily.

 

Oh NO, I was shown the error of my ways very quickly by some friends with the Vag.com whichwere able to set up my boost machine
so it wouldn't go into limp mode every 5 minutes. I think at the time they set it to around 23-24psi max and even that I heard is really
too much for a stock turbo. I think 22-23 is about max before it goes out of the efficiency range and is just producing heat and no power.

I got rid of the old 01 TT which I have regretted every since. I really liked that car but wanted something with more muscle so I got a 06 Dodge Daytona Charger
which was a Boat compared to the TT. Great off the line performance but not as impressive as I had hopped for. The handeling was sub par and after a few months
I got tired of it. I traded it for an 06 Civic Si which was a really nice car with potential but it lacked style and torque. You really had to rev that sucker to make it go.
The V-Tec was cool but it didn't kick in until around 6k and most of my driving was done way under that rpm range. I liked the Si but it was no TT which was always
in the back of my mind. So I started looking for a used TT and found this Red 04 TT225 for a great price. This thing just puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.
Great little car and fun to drive. It might not be a muscle car but it is most definitely a sports car and I am getting asked about it all the time whereas the Si I never
got a nudge from anyone. Heck, it is afterall a Civic. But I am very happy to be once again a TT owner
