Anyone know if this car is worth modding? I see major potential in this car

 

my friend has his 1g talon 1990 AWD Tsi for sale.. PM me for details if ur interested. He is in MI and the car needs a headgasket.

 

are you talking about the laser cuz if you are i think the answer is no. If i remember they didnt even come with the 4g63. I forget what it was. But the last time i did research on it, it really didnt seem like a good idea to be modding one

 

Yea, idk, like its pretty quick, all I want is intake, exhuast and plugs

 

if thats all you plan on doing then i dont see why not, wait is this a turbo laser? And to make a correction on what i previously said, the lasers did come with the 4g63 in the turbo models

 

Nope, RS

 

oh ok, yea i dont really see a point in moding it if you are planning on getting something and using it as a daily driver. Those models came with the 1.8l engine i believe

 

Yea, im callin tommorow bout a TSI for sale, needs a ECU...800$

 

Their were many models avaible for the 1g's, the 4g63-t awd, 4g63-t fwd, the non turbo 4g63 which was in the rs model and then their was a base that was just called the lazer which had the 4g67 1.8 in it. So to answer the question yes your car has a 4g63 in it, but its different from a turbo 4g63, it has different cams, injectors, pistons, headgasket, and the oil spouts in the block are different causing the motor to run at a lower oil pressure then the turbo model. Basically its really not worth to turbo it unless your just going to throw a 14b on and swap the ecu/injectors.

 

well thats not totally true because in the year that his is they didnt offer the AWD for the laser
