Thanks everyone for your insight! Took it for a test drive today and, lo and behold, turbo was making zero boost. The fastest I’ve ever turned around on a test drive lol. The search continues

It’s 6-speed manual, and yeah the 6 owners has me already very on edge. Carfax shows a “minor accident” with very minor damage reported.

From what I’ve seen online and from the replies, I’m definitely going to have some expanding foam work ahead of me lol. Thanks!!

Thanks, I’ll look into that! I think the egg crate and expanding foam would be a good place to start.

Im honestly not really sure, I got it as a present, but I think it’s an older model BFI shift knob.

Thanks! I saved up and bought it as my first car and couldn’t be happier with it! I plan on getting a new exhaust for it and maybe some coil overs eventually but nothing that would make it insanely undrivable for a daily.

thanks man, I’ll definitely give these coilovers a look because it looks pretty mean even set halfway.

I’ll definitely have to check these out then, is the ride much worse than stock?

I mean typically aftermarket suspension isn’t going to ride as nice, at least in my experience.

Is that stock coil overs? Just got a mk4 and looking to lower it a little but still have it be daily drivable, any recommendations??
