Whatever you do, do not have a catback without a resonator if you have a downpipe. My $.02if I can find one close by VA I'll get it.....for some reason they're all popping up in PA lol
Good resonator. The stock one is shit, but better than nothingWhatever you do, do not have a catback without a resonator if you have a downpipe. My $.02
Nice and good to know you're alive! Before you build the motor, hit me up.....I have numbers from everyone lolWuddup gang. It's been a minute. Life has been jam packed. Haven't had much free time. Gti is well ish. Installed all the suspension mods, getting a clunk on the passenger front side. Got a check oil level light , but the car has plenty oil via dip stick , so I'm assuming bad sensor. No leaks anywhere to be seen. Still need to do dcc calibration. Anyway, few of those things piled up that needed attention and it's cold here now. Too cold to work on the car and the gti did not feel like a daily driver anymore. Needed something bigger, picked up a tesla as a daily. Great car. Big plans for the gti come spring time. Might build the motor , go bigger turbo , just be stupid. I'll be back to my usual shit posting in the next couple of months. Love you all. Hope you've been well.View attachment 311883
yeah I would think the extent of their "modding" would be "look at these new wheels! "Been driving the tesla for 10 days or so now. Really enjoy the vehicle. Tech is great, it's quick, comfortable, spacious with great visibility. Plugging the car in and having a full charge in the morning is convenient. But the thing can't brake for shit. I'm going to get a big brake kit for it. I was stumbling across the tesla forums asking for feedback and what not, what a difference in patrons from this place. I'm like, anyone get big brakes for this thing, they're like, don't ruin it, check out these floor mats. Bunch of fags; anyway, I'll be adding tesla updates to this thread as well, cause fuck the other guys.
Brakes in EVs are weird- in my BMW Porsche Audi Sales days I found that some cars had trash brakes because it was expected the drivers would crank up the regen and barely use the actual braking system. (Audi Q4 E-Trons have drums in the rear lmao)Been driving the tesla for 10 days or so now. Really enjoy the vehicle. Tech is great, it's quick, comfortable, spacious with great visibility.

I did. Regen is great but when I need to make a hard stop from a fast speed it takes longer than I'm comfortable with . It's a heavy car. 4100 lbs I think.Brakes in EVs are weird- in my BMW Porsche Audi Sales days I found that some cars had trash brakes because it was expected the drivers would crank up the regen and barely use the actual braking system.

You may have tried this already, but messing with regen might help improve stopping performance for you...a BBK would be cool though so definitely do that still haha
That's fair, can't go wrong with bigger brakes IMO- I did a mild BBK on my daily and I swear it has saved me from hitting a deer on more than one occasion hahaI did.
