Default using my tt as a everyday car with mods

What would the limit of power be for the 225 hp engines, before it starts to cut into its lifespan, when I use it as an everyday car? I still want it to be competitive when I take it to a track though.

Thanks

Default I'd get any old CAI, and an EBC - much more precise control......

I also fail to see the point of increasing the diameter of a 3in MAF that feeds into a 2in turbo inlet.

Youll see much better gains by spending money on a turboback, an intake manifold with better flow distribution than stock, and of course a chip

Default Only APR at this point - but 42DD is working on a full 3" turboback

other option is 42DD downpipe and 3" custom from the downpipe back.
