hello, so yea im new to the vw scene. i recently got a 05 jetta gl. i had a few questions if anyone could help me. first of all its a 05 so thats a mkV? but it has the mkIV body? im looking to build a time attack car, for when i have time to go to the tracks. (if i do) but its also my daily driver. was wondering if you guys had any suggestions? i was thinking of starting on fine tuning the suspension, maybe lowering an inch or so. then dont know from there.

thanks

The best way to go first is the intake or just change the air filter. Add a k&n cone filter and a engine breather as well, that will add some power to your car.
Or go for a AEM intake system. =]
But whats your main goal?? do you want a 10 sec. car
I have a 00' jetta vr6 and what i add to it was a intake system engine breather and a GReddy Global Style Exhaust. sweet Euro sound and a lot of power.

looking around a few different forums and for the 2.0. that i have, there doesnt seem much that i can do to push this for like a "fast" car. i have been looking at just getting it to the best it can be. then once around like 90-100k miles swaping to the VR6, heard it was easier then the 1.8T. idk, just digging for some small things to do. in college so mad tight budget.
