You'll still need an exhaust with N/A or F/I.

all i have to say is that the VVel is a new generation motor new and better standards. and way tough.. im going to be honest i didnt get my TT to drive like a granny.. all i have to say is be carefull she starts to sway alittle in 6th gear on springs at 140... and making this car a sleeper will surprise anybody on the street..even cops when you pass them doing 120 on the highway(my bad i guess he was eating a donut)

I am going to get in so much trouble....LOL.
It's a "sexy car", but the recent problems and warranty crap they are putting out, makes it totally "unsexy".

Lowered, with some Formula Silver GT30's and it suddenly becomes sexy...I stand corrected.

Oh, and just make sure it's black.

I hate to change the subject, but wait until next year when the 2010 GTR V-Spec comes out, suppose to have 550-580hp and has an MSRP of $130,000.

No way! There is SOO much more to a car than power, and a TT G37 doesn't even have THAT much more power. The GT-R gets to 60 in 3.4 seconds EASY. I've even heard of 3.2 and under with launch control. What will a TT G37 get, mid-4's? The GT-R Transmission, launch control, and ATTESA--among many other things--will kick any G's ***.

Don't get me wrong, a TT G37 is great, and it's still much cheaper (and to some a much better deal) than a GT-R. I'm even considering doing it to mine some time in the next few years once I can afford it. But the two cars just can't really compare.

After seeing the GTR and all the problems it has with warranty and eveyrthing.. I'm not at all impressed with the car like I used to be.... I would go for a heavily modded 350z or g35 over the gtr in a heart beat...
