Um...I said 500hp not 550hp. 550hp=467.5rwhp (6spd), which is nearly unattainable unless your Mkiv TT's engine and turbos have near-zero miles on them AND you do a full set of bpu++++ upgrades. Again, what I said was, is 500hp yes ... but 550hp no guarantees at all - very unlikely without a turbo upgrade.

Kind of tough to self install, especially if you want a decent, safe install. Same with the nos kit - you can get it cheap (<$500), and blow up the engine. The nos kit gets expensive (>$1000+) when you add in all of the electronic controls and tuning necessary for it to perform consistently and keep the engine safe.
