Correct - one reason why it is a very bad idea. Not only is there no guarantee that the side airbags will work, but there is no guarantee that ANY of the airbags will function as intended.
That's why manufacturers need to crash test the same car with different options - including seats.
Soi accidentally mis shifted last night and over revved. I caught it immediately and pushed the clutch in.
Got my buddys OBD11 to scan the car tonight and the Overrev code was definitely there. Cleared it. See what happens in the next few days.. car is idling fine, drives fine, maybe i was experiencing heat soak cause the car feels slightly sluggish.. drove 50 miles today and nothing else seemed wrong.. the "fake" boost gauge caught my eye today and it felt like i was losing power cause the numbers kept dropping although i was on the throttle.. seemed a little better tonight on the way home.. the only thing i can think of to really ease my mind is compression test- but think the car would show that by a rough idle or other symptoms -

I money shifted a 2012 Golf R. It drove fine for a week and a half. A rocker retainer clip came off, but the rocker didn't come off until I did a full throttle pull later. In hindsight, I wish I had pulled the valve cover off and looked at those, but who knew those would even fail at that engine speed...
Thank you for your feedback- and yes I’m considering myself extremely lucky - car is still driving completely normal- idles at 800 rpm’s, and is actually really quiet. Shifts fine, no noises at this time- maybe i just really cleaned the shit out of the valves and the car gods were looking out
