On a side note i just did a capet swap from a jetta and had my headliner redone, it was leaking through the windshield water drain because of muck buildup, i had my sunroof seals sealed with rtv while it was opened up.
The vnt17 was installed by the previous owner at 160k miles he claimed when he had the car it would get 45-50. The old stock turbo ran away but they saved the motor, when i got it i had it retuned for having the vnt17 with a two bar map added, the guy at the shop said it would make it run...
