    Dilemma

    Hello guys,

    I have got myself a Polo TSI 1.2 with a clutch. Somehow i got some unexpected money that i would like to spend them to my lil baby. I am really interested to Polo R-Line + ABT,MTM,Revo Engines improvements the cost is going to be like 3-4 k Euros but i am wondering does it worth it ? If i will sell my current polo i will get for sure like 12k with 5k more i can get a used GTI with sunroof and so on. If you were me, what would you do?

    Anyways Thank you for your time.


    P.s I posted the same thread at the welcome section but I think that this is the proper section!

    I'd opt for the GTi if you ever have any intention of selling the car. You don't generally get your money back on mods when it comes to resale.

    indeed. But i am afraid of the GTI since it comes with HUGE problems and so on.

    Well i would never go so far like you have, however i have done as follows

    ABT Rear Diffuser/Cat back Exhaust.

    Replica Talladega wheels 17' however encountered a crack (i found it after using food colouring and water using UV light, was not happy and got a full refund with now a set of 3 perfect wheels...sigh).

    So now going for Detroits which i think the machine polish/black insert finish will look nice.

    Then finally i may get springs installed, the TSI is pretty much fantastic stock
