Frendlyfyre Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Hello fellow Starquesters! My name is Ryan and I have just purchased my first Conquest. Its an 87 TSI, was originally red...but has been painted blue by an amateur which I will be correcting as soon as I get the mechanicals straightened out. By no means my first or only car...but ive always liked the look of these cars and finally got mine. I do want to mod it up to around 350 whp or so and will be scouring these pages in hopes of finding my path.:-) Obviously any help will be greatly appreciated.

I was just about to give the same advice, as it seems as though once someone acquires (1) of beauties it's "off to the modd'n." & unfortunately... (not always, but more times than not) it becomes an issue! Again welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frendlyfyre Posted October 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Thanks guys...I plan to make it run good the way it is first...but someone has been doing stuff to it already and makes me think they've got it running bad...I'm new to boost so I've got a lot to learn.

DieHARDmitsu. Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Welcome! Safety first, check your fuel hoses and brake lines. Inspect for cracks leaks or any damage.Check all your fluid levels: oil, coolant, power steering, brake, clutch(manual) transimmision(automatic).Then comes a basic tune up...
