$600 refund

[Debo]

Well my bank roll went up $600 and i am new to the Si. I just sold my 07 GTI and got an 07 Si. The GTI with a re-flash is putting down 227HP / 246TQ at $599


So my question is what will $600 get me as far as HP/TQ numbers go?
What is the best bang for the buck?

TIA

[I Vtec, do you?]

$600 will get you a header lol. 195 WHP at the extreme, I would think.

$600 . . . . right now, it's going to take like atlest $2000 to reach 220whp

You won't hit 220 WHP with $2 gs. Bolt-ons will only take you so far, I'd say 210 at the most. Some dynos run a bit high imo, so anyone saying 215 out of their i/h/e is getting inflated numbers. If you want to hit 220+ WHP, you're looking at boosting.

the gti was good for me and my girl friend only because it had 2 doors. i wanted another gti with 4-doors but they were too much $$. so i traided in my 2 door for the for the si sedan which is starting to grow on me. here is link to what used to me my car stock.

cams and a programmable ecu would do wonders for our k20's n/a

2g' will give you 20-25whp gain. Spend $60.00 on dyno on a stock baseline. It's worth it. Just get some dc header , and make your own intake. Forget reflash . reflash is not good with out header and intake.

Ok, and 185 (generous) WHP + 25 WHP = what?

Haha sorry, just messing with ya man

[Debo]

what does ECU flash get?
is any thing needed to go with the flash?

[I Vtec, do you?]

You need a minimum of intake/header/(?)exhaust or you'll lose power. It really doesn't gain much at the top end. But you get like 25ish WHP midrange?

227hp cannot be your hp at the WHEEL...the factory GTI has only about 200hp...unless you got some serious bolt ons..otherwise your probably lookin at only 200hp at the wheel also (if you have 227hp at the CRANK)..or even less..the stock only has a few ponies over the Si..the only difference in power is the factory turbo and torque...so yea i think your mistaken.

[isunelan]

hondata's reflash gives you lower vtect engagement point and i think thats all?

I know VW's have alot of chip and tuning options, but 60 whp is a bit much! What mods were on the gti?

i only had a drop in filter and flash. i have more videos but they are on my buddy mikes computer. he has that silver si in the video above. that silver si seems faster than my sedan si also his car was faster than my gti on the highway. he is on this forum aslo (mcchurch) or something like that. he has a weapon r cai and evo2. sounds so good makes me want an exhaust and cai
