Decided to get out of the DSM game for the 2nd time and put my $$ and efforts into my C5 instead.
I got this TSi last year this time; Nov'11 or so. Replaced the yellowed headlights with brand new OEM units. Replaced the hacked front bumper with a unhacked bumper. New Falken tires bought earlier this year. Replaced hatch struts. and replaced some interior pieces that was missing. Has fresh Amsoil tranny fluid, Amsoil TC fluid and Amsoil rear diff fluid changed out this year.Has valvoline oil.
Car is running on and EVO8 ecu with GM maft setup. This is how i bought it, i did not do the conversion myself. I had it tuned by My1gDSM on tuners, it runs way better than when I got it, however on cold starts like first thing in the morning, it stumbles when giving it some throttle, once its up to running temps the car rides out. I believe it's the GM shit on there, I was planning to go SD but not going to get to it.
There is a check engine light that is present, i believe from what i read it is indicative of the E8 ecu being in there. Its for speed sensor and generator something. Car drives fine regardless.

The exterior is pretty decent for a 20yr old car. The car is white with black roof.
Comes with 2g talon 17" wheels. I plastidipped them white but can easily be removed. The hood has 2 rust spots. I seen no other rust on the car.
The battery was relocated to the rear by the previous owner. Has the usual power window issues, the driver goes off track and the passenger side is slow to go up. Suspension i changed with eibach prokit springs and KYB GR2 shocks n struts.
