I learned my lesson after the 1G and bought a 95 TSi AWD bone stock ;D So far, I've taken care of a few of the routine maintenance items:
Oil change
Spark plugs
Plug wires
Fuel filter
I also want to put a new timing belt on the car before I really get going on it, but since it's also my DD, I have to put that to the side for a bit. I have picked up a few aftermarket things for the car already:
1. Autometer SportComp boost guage
2. MBC
3. MegaSquirt V2.2 (ordered)
4. Turbonetics 50 trim CHRAw/ SBR T04E comp cover and Bullseye turbine housing (Thanks Dan!)
I'm not really picking things up in any particular order yet, I'm just keeping my eyes open for good deals since I can't install anything until spring. I have everything pretty well planned out for the car already. Here's a rough layout of what I plan on doing with the car:
