We just picked up an 86 5000 Turbo Quattro 5 speed wagon to enter. The car is in great shape with no issues to speak of. I've done a bit of searching and have some ideas, but unfortunately a lot of the info I'm finding is old. I'd love fresh input on how others would build this car.

Thanks,
Jim

Will do.

At this point we're lowered with H&R springs, Monroe replacement struts, 225/45/17 Federal 595 RS-RR with spacers up front. The shift linkage is adjusted (We paid $800 for the car because it only had 2nd and 4th). Fuel cut is bypassed and we are running 16psi. The exhaust is next on the list performance wise.

We have removed the bumper structures and supports which with some new brackets and cutting allowed us to bring the bumper covers in two inches. This also obviously cut weight out of the car. Paint is next on the agenda.

At this point we are roughly $1,300 worth of documented expenses in the car.
