    Wheel hop damaged my GTI

    I was worried it was gonna be your LCA bushings. 👀 Those are famously terrible, and are responsible for most wheel hop on cars that have already upgraded the dogbone mount and/or remaining 2 mounts. Glad you got it sorted quickly, and that it wasn’t your transmission or CV axles! 🍻

    STR38 Turbo

    Worth discussing: What kind of power on an MQB 2.0T with 93 octane and HPFP upgrade, and what kind of power on E-blends? I see “up to 400whp”, but it doesn’t indicate what fuel, and I didn’t see dyno graphs (apologies if I missed it in your product link).

    CSB3: Florida, YOHB?

    I've been away for a few months (from this group, no hostilities, just life insanity) Playing catch up on what I've missed. We let a Mk6 owner in here? 🙃 😏 😈

    How dare you deny the benefits of upgraded intercoolers! 😆 Get out of my thread. 😉

    When she's too tight for comfort...OE Audi RS3 bushings = too big for Mk7 LCAs (pics & data inside)

    Knowing what I do now, and having experienced the pains and frustrations I did, I would not recommend anybody even mess with installing upgraded bushings, unless they have a 10 – ton hydraulic press sitting in the corner of their garage or shop. It is much more cost and time effective to buy...

    We tried to take a FWD lap record; instead we built the perfect street and track MQB…

    Great info and great questions. The truth is I was not able to push the car to its real limits last year because of the street tires and the mechanical issues. I also refuse to race June – August because it’s just not worth the sweat fest and the car stress. I run 5W – 40 Castrol European oil...

    FS - RS3 front LCAs - fits all MQB cars 2015-2021 (Golf, GTI, R, Jetta, Beetle)

    If you’re on a budget, stock steel control arms with upgraded bushings pressed in is the way to go. If you don’t have access to a press, and you’re not doing it yourself, go ahead and just spring for the black forest arms with the bushings pressed in already. $300 retail versus $500 for the 034...

    Failing to get info from Bilstein Re: B4 & B6

    KW and ST have excellent customer service. Don’t rule them out. Speaking first hand as a shop owner. Bilstein makes outstanding products when you select the right one for your goals and needs. The B8s on our shop car are truly superb, especially now that we’ve found the correct spring combo to...
