    2023-2024 MQB Suspension Rundown (street & track setup)

    Do we know if the EQT coilovers have internal bumps stops? I wouldn’t mind throwing in bump stops if it would help things. Also good note about disassembling from the bottom, that is what I did when I originally put on the switch springs. I didn’t want to mess with that top nut at all. I might...

    2023-2024 MQB Suspension Rundown (street & track setup)

    Thank you, this makes a lot of sense. I will be setting preload the lazy way of just adding roughly 5mm of tension when I get the ride height dialed in, unless I experience problems. I definitely have not experienced any coil bind.

    2023-2024 MQB Suspension Rundown (street & track setup)

    I haven’t swapped the springs yet as the car has been sitting in my garage. It’s too cold here in PA to be working in an uninsulated garage on the floor for me haha. I would imagine that I have 7” springs. I just got whatever the swift spring upgrade is from EQT. What exactly do you mean by...

    2023-2024 MQB Suspension Rundown (street & track setup)

    Thank you for the responses, I might try swapping springs front and rear in the spring and see how I like it. Worst case I can get a lower rate in the rear, and the rears are super easy to change out. Actually I think I have an extra set of 8k springs (the ones that the EQT coils originally came...

    2023-2024 MQB Suspension Rundown (street & track setup)

    Kind of a random question but everyone on this thread seems pretty knowledgable. Just wondering how you come to determine spring rates that are suitable. For instance I have EQT coilovers that I have swift springs for. Currently running 10k front 8k rear. I do kind of think it’s a little to...

    DSC DCC controller

    As far as I know the APR one is essentially the same thing, but it’s not half the price. https://www.goapr.com/products/suspension/suspension_controller/parts/SUS00020

    DIY: Virtual Cockpit Retrofit MK7 (aliexpress version)

    Thank you so much, I get it now. I didn’t know these devices existed. Very cool, I will definitely be purchasing one of those boxes instead of just my wireless CarPlay adapter

    DIY: Virtual Cockpit Retrofit MK7 (aliexpress version)

    Okay so your device connects to both the cluster and CarPlay? Am I understanding that correctly?

    DIY: Virtual Cockpit Retrofit MK7 (aliexpress version)

    Is this an android only thing? I have an iPhone. My dash does have an HDMI port in the back, I have the dongle that came with the dash plugged into it. Are you using a different unit?

    DIY: Virtual Cockpit Retrofit MK7 (aliexpress version)

    So how exactly are you guys making this split happen? I have a wireless CarPlay adapter but everything just comes to the main screen and not the dash.

    Understanding the MK7 PCV function, retrofitting the MK8 PCV, and why catch cans are bullshit(IMO)

    I was consuming roughly a quart every 1000 miles with the APR plate and I don’t remember the can even being completely full, and that is just spirited street miles. I did have a CTS catch can for a brief period of time years ago and that thing would fill up with almost straight oil in like 50...

    Understanding the MK7 PCV function, retrofitting the MK8 PCV, and why catch cans are bullshit(IMO)

    Keep an eye on your oil level. When I had my APR plate on my car would consume oil. Solved smoking issue but I was definitely going through oil with the APR system installed.

    Going from DCC to passive suspension - question about mounts

    I can’t I know for sure on the GLI, but my 2015 GTI with DCC has the same mounts as a non DCC car

    Can't fit Koni FSD struts into the knuckle

    Yea I don’t know why some struts bottom out in the knuckle and some don’t, would be really useful if any of these manufacturers would just make a note about that. For instance, my bilsteins bottomed out yet my EQT coilovers didn’t. It’s just looks off when they don’t bottom out but that’s how...
