I'm driving a black VW Jetta VR6 right now but its all standard issue factory stuff. I bet I could put a turbo kit and a new exhaust and some bigger wheels and lower the suspension and it would be BAD ASSSSSSS.
Any suggestions?
I just am not enough of a gear head to get motivated.

What year is Jetta?
Either way, like jact said turbo is one way to go but if you want alot of power your gonna have to get a big turbo (t4) and with a big turbo comes lag, and power is only made on the high end of the rpm range.
This creates a couple of problems and the most important being that driveability suffers to make HUGE hp numbers starting only at 3500+rpm which sucks ass to for driving on city streets.
You also will find yourself unable to control your car when that power is being made because traction will be a huge issue, you will most likely need a quaife differential at that point anyway to put down any decent amount of power.
What i would suggest is to get a supercharger kit from these guys.

Jetta IV

I would also recommend stage 3
This will allow you to drive your car like a stock car practically with a power being distributed in a linear fashion instead of just a huge amount of power in shot like a big turbo would do.
It will also be alot less hassles maintenance wise...
Those kits are complete with custom ECU chip, pulleys, intercooler and piping and all that good shit.
I would get a set of Coilovers, upgrade the Brakes for sure for all the added power, and maybe a few bars to tighten up the chassis....i could go on an on but this should do for now.
Throw in some 18inch wheels to look good and you have yourself One helluva daily driver that will most likely smoke the doors of many hondas...s2000 or not
