The BEST mod money can buy!

Got yall to look... but seriously, I have this addiction that I know ALL of you have as well, YOUR NEVER SATISFIED WITH MODIFYING you car! I did pretty much everything to my car that I can just shy of a SC and I said eh... its fast, but not fast enough! I was pissed and thought I should have dished out some more money for a TT in the first place.

It snowed 15" here so the car was parked for 3 days. I have been driving around my F250 lifted monster truck which is slow as ***** around lately. I got back in the Pcar today and I am SOOO happy! I LOVE THIS CAR! ITS SOOOO FAST its crazy!

What you don't want to do is mod this car with a ton of money and then realize that you aren't satisfied and you end up selling the car and lose a ton of money on the mods and on the car.

The best mod I have done was drive my Touareg for a number of days while the white stuff covered the streets.

If you want to know how fast your car is, take it to the track and watch how many cars you fly by.

Agree with Ed that you have to take it to the track.

My bone stock club coupe is too fast on the street. There is no part anywhere on the street that I have wish for more power.

Seeing that you're from New York, I can imagine the scene of taxis lining up along 5th Avenue and pedestrian everywhere.

I hope this isnt going to turn into a "take it to the track and stay off the streets" thread! My god everyone around here is brainwashed!!!

Not everyone who lives in NY lives on 5th ave my friend. I live out in LI where there are some fun roads that no one even knows about!

**Back to my OP... If your looking for more from your car, let it sit a day or two, then get back in it. Youll realize how much your current car rocks!**

Don't get me wrong, just telling you that your car is already too fast for street use.

As a tourist, Manhattan is the only place that I've been. You guys got the best shows in town!

PCA is an excellent organization, I have met a number of good friends (like Targa Tim) there.

My Porsche is my DD, except when the weather is bad or I need to do some work errands that require more space then the Touareg is the one.

I think the worst would be to spend all the money in mods , LOVE the car , but run out of money and have to sell the car to pay bills.
