    that block is good for 325-350max DD... my 1.8t was 225whp/290lbs and it could of made more. i would suggest in this order:

    - giac flash + forge dv approx 500$ (eurotechatlanta.com) call brian tell him paul from IA sent you and you will get a discount

    - evo intake

    - TT(techtonics tuning) downpipe + hiflo cat

    - 2.5" custom exhaust (i did 2.5" custom pipe to flowmaster single in/out)

    - FMIC (i had greddy; only issue you have to loose core support)

    - larger abd inlet pipe

    - manifold gasket (drops temp)

    - add race file to GIAC flash
    if you do all of that you will easily make those numbers and have a low 13 sec dub

    but Paul didn't you have a GTI?? it's pretty hard to get those numbers out of a passat without all the upgrades you listed plus alittle bigger turbo



    The most you'll get out of the motor is about 195-200...thats with the chip and a few other little stuff. Most people do the K04 upgrade to get 225whp.

    check out www.passatworld.com/forums (wealth of info)
    Im in there under the same name

    and when considering this, what miles and is the timing belt done with all the other things that need to be changed at the same time.

    2.0Ts just make power so efficiently...300 hp is a cake walk vs a 1.8T.
    lookin forward Paul!
