Haha yea, well I sold it to some guy from Middletown, so shes gone :(. It scooted tho trust me had the turbo at 22psi on 93 octane, and it was a 6 speed stick. someday i'll get back into that scene, for now im content with owning a jeep.

Why do air ride on a Jetta?  Does it make it handle better?  I see them on mini-trucks so they can lay frame, but they are only for looks, not performance.

Don't ask me, its a Euro thing, I was never into it. He also put just about everything back to stock. Detunned it all exept maybe the exhaust, took all the sweet gauges out. I don't get it.

air bags would be cool on a jeep.  one tire in the air you could force it back down to traction.

Been done before paul!! I remember seeing it a mag a LONG while back when air shocks just started catching on. IIRC, the guys ened up ripping them out because it got too confusing trying to manipulate 4 wheels @ the same time while he was driving.
