I live in Texas. I had to pull up my original email to them. These were the 3 that were "not ready": Fuel system Catalyst O2 It sounds like what I recall from having Stage 1 for a time with my MK6, so it's good to hear that the COBB/EQT tunes shouldn't require 2x annual reflashes. Now as to...

I thought so too until failing the inspection check, emailing IE and receiving confirmation from them that their tune requires flashing to stock to pass emissions testing.

I've been out of the loop for a while and was excited to see that EQT has DQ381 and E30 tunes now available for my 2018 R. I have a couple of "grass is greener" questions that I haven't found in my limited skimming of this thread: 1. How does the Stage 1 tune affect emissions readiness? I was...

Sold: WCT Gas Pedal Spacer Sold Recently purchased and decided not to use for daily driving in my DSG R, though I think this would be great for a manual car on the track. Full disclosure, I don't know if the spacer was the cause but I did get a warning message on the digital display once in...

SOLD: JB4 w/Bluetooth & Billet Enclosure Selling my JB4. Purchased from a member in this forum last August and am ready to throw caution to the wind with regards to warranty on ECU/TCU tunes. This is on the latest firmware and has been flawless on my 18 R. SOLD

I was debating on writing a novella about how I came across this but I don't have the energy. Can anyone confirm that this pass-thru device on my OBDII port preventing OBDEleven from working on my new R is some sort of dealer installed tracking device like Lojack? I already ripped it out and...

And in with the new! Long time lurker and new R owner here jumping to the other side from a Stage 2 MK6 GTI. I was hesitant to make the jump now given some potential transmission concerns with the 7 speed DSG and uncertainty of what the MK8 will bring. But my 5 year old daughter told me I had...

I had a '04 G35 that I took in for some maintenance and the mechanic found that some bushings were completely disintegrated. I want to say it was the lower control arms but I really can't remember. They weren't cheap to replace but I remember thinking I should do it because the old ones didn't...
