    Chasing traction.

    Really looking for some help here. Mods in sig, I have been chasing an AWD issue for quite some time now. Finally got the car running really well and one night I launched it against a Vette at a light and it spun hard. Popped an EPC and had codes for engine overspeed and turbocharger overboost...

    Haldex replacement

    Anyone have experience replacing the haldex yourself? If so where did you source the part? I believe mine not to be working. I have found the pump and the controller for sale separately but at 300 and 600 respectively it’s a little pricey for a maybe fix. VW is proud of the unit itself at 2800...

    Vortex R vs G35

    Coming home from work last night and I cruise up next to a red G35, straight piped and spitting flames on decel. Caught a light, 2 young guys in the car. Laid on the launch control for a second and the driver says “I don’t want it” lol. Left the light a little spicy and that was that. I really...

    BFI mount torque spec

    Need a quick reply. I bought a used set of stage 2 mounts and a set of stage 1 inserts. I’m reassembling the engine mount and need to know the torque spec of the center bolt that holds the mount together. BFI doesn’t list it on their site.

    P2177 system too lean off idle

    Mods in sig. Never threw a code on my pump gas tune but within a mile of driving on my first e85 fill car threw a cel for p2177. Thinking maybe a fluke being the first fill I cleared and went about my business. Car drives fine and is now on its second tune revision. Mentioned it to sneeky and he...

    Pretoria reps cheap

    Have a set of Pretoria reps I’d like to get rid of. Alzor brand from Ecs, 19x8.5 +45 in gunmetal. Good news is they’re cheap. Bad news is one might have a slight bend in it, hence the price. Not super motivated to ship these as it kills the value for the buyer but I do have boxes if someone...

Entering my vin on parts.VW.com returns a part number that is no longer available but has been superseded by a new part that the site claims does not fit my car.

    Engine build

    So it seems like my dbv2 failure may have cost me an engine as well. Got the car back together on the is38, flushed the engine and cleaned out the pan. Car runs but there’s noise in the top end and anything over idle throws misfire codes across all cylinders. Currently weighing options between...

    TPC20 vs 38

    Looking to the internet for advice. Blew my dbv2 and instead of going back to the is38 I’m considering one of these two options. I wanted a vortex but they are 3 months out and while technically I could go that long without my car I don’t want to. My first concern is reliability, I know a few...
