Hello docgre-- If I were looking to add power to my 1995 Volkswagen Jetta I would look to one of the hundreds of special "tuner" sites you can find through a search on Google or Yahoo. They may suggest an updated computer chip for your car or maybe they will suggest a cold-air intake system. Give them a try. Good luck from Bovan.
