Are there still? I work right by there.

I bought my 20 Autobahn in July - Havent driven it too much only 1600 miles but I've been scratching my mod-itch. Had '15 R that was totaled and happy to be back in an MK7 after a yawn inducing stint in a B9 S5

That rear lower valence with the black tips looks awesome. To answer your question about the meets, last I heard they were still on hold but am not totally sure.

Does anyone know if there are any local cars and coffee events in Boston area? Would love to attend.

Wish I was around. Actually in NC this weekend. Do these happen on a regular basis? Would love to attend.

It's monthly! Here's a shot from today (I took my front plate off afterwards but it was too dark already).

Hey all, new member here from just outside Boston. Bought my '19 GTI SE MT in February and hoping to connect with some other local owners! Curious to know about winter driving experience, and how to best TURN OFF the beeping when you open the door with the engine running. Please let me know if anyone has a ODBeleven or similar that might help.

Meetups/runs would be fun too if that's a thing! Nice to join the forum.

Welcome! Obd11 is what you want. Worth buying one imo, super nice for checking codes and playing with settings for autocross or other upgrades.

19 Golf R, RIP GTI S
YO! New member here, too. 2015 GTI 4D MT. I've had the car for a few years now and just started tuning and modding it. I've always driven naturally aspirated cars, so the boost is new to me. Early in life I had a 96 Ford Probe GT with a KL-ZE swap and all the bolt-ons. Deceptively fast for a 90's car. Before I got the GTI, an 07 Trailblazer SS AWD. Full exhaust, intake and headers, with a street tune.

Since November I've done a few things to better the ol' whiperino, including an APR STG 1 Tune and full APR Intake with carbon elbow. Cars a ton of fun and thinking some suspension next, but its my daily and I drive quite a bit. I just took it to DYNOTECH in Seekonk, MA, to have a dyno and see where I sat. On a mustang dyno (reads 15% lower than dynojet, apparently) she put down 242whp and 260 wtq. Those numbers inflate to 278/299 roughly, so I'm pretty happy, but have the itch! Let me know what you think you might do next with the setup I have. 89K mi.

Thanks!

Long time reader, but finally a member here over in Brighton. picked up a 2020 pure white GTI S DSG in December. It's a lot nicer than my first car; a 1986 diesel golf.
