Sell your 01 and get something from 03 up.

Ummmm... yeah, thanks.

How about for those of us that don't want to commit financial suicide with the resale values?

Any "real" suggestions?

Brabus offered tuning solutions fr the non TT V12...but very pricey.

Increased displacement resulting in 450 bhp....engine conversion was about $50K.

That's a little more likely than flipping cars to get a quicker ride. And at about $1K, it seems worth looking into. I'm considering it strongly, and also RENNtech. Thanks,

Sounds like you don't have the car yet. I'd be careful, and keep an open mind about looking for an 03 or later. How much are you paying for it? AND DOES IT HAVE A FULL WARRANTY? Resale value of these cars took a real beating.
