Ok, bickering aside, the upper limit of this engine is around 8200. It varies a little, but that's slightly below the point where the oil pump quits moving oil.

Some have done 7600-7800 on stock...

Indeed. It's not even my DD and I use the AC too often to give it up. Even if I put my car on a 300 pound diet the AC will be the last thing to go!

Is it true the A/C de-clutches when it is not in use and when ON but WOT? So the AC doesn't rob power in both those scenarios?

Audi TT 2.0T... Man that thing was rattly, sounded like hell, shifter was clunky, and the gas pedal was on a rubber band with the engine. Turbo lag for days.

2000 max 5 speed is a great car with a fantastic 3L V6 that can go 300K miles with no issues, gets 34 MPG on the highway, and is simple to upkeep. Good luck!

If you can find an S2K for $7500 in good shape you better grab it :)

They are about twice that price near me if they are in good condition.

Seriously, this is the easiest way to make the car feel faster and it's about $1k to do. Yet few people actually do it it would seem. They'd rather spend $2k on an exhaust/tune
