What did you do to your mk7 today?

On Saturday I started the day putting in Ss clutch line. While I had all that room on the bay I decided to go ahead and put in the ecs engine and tranny mounts and just go ahead and also do the hpa bone. I was going to wait to make sure my 3 day old spring + shock install was solid, but...

Anyway, finished it all in about 4 hours.

Car feels so so good now. Was worried about increased nvh but there's almost none, except a tiny bit at idle. Going to add some rpm with vcds but really it's hardly noticeable.

My final mod is a rsb and that comes this week. I wonder how long I'll be placated with this build. Stupid awesome hobby.

Disconnected my soundaktor. I wanted to see how my car sounded without it with my CSS muffler. Undecided at the moment if I'm going to re-connect it.

Tough job if you have larger hands like i do. Pro tip; put the wipers in the service position, that way you can pry the plastic cover up a little further

Added some chinese knockoffs of the racingline shift paddles. Man they really did copy them ahmost exactry. But RL wants $240 for these pieces of aluminum. I thought that even the $55 with coupon I paid on ebay for clones was to much money for these things. They work as advertised though! They just don't say Racingline on them.

Guy in a modified WRX was giving me some revs behind me at a stop light so I gave him a little dig up to the speed limit of 45 and gapped him hard, got a compliment at the next red light. "That sounds really good!" Apparently the AWE Track catback gets the subie guys approval

Happy to hear this. My Amazon knockoffs are on the way!

Just ordered the silver ones from Amazon. Just couldn’t pull they trigger on the 200.00+ high end ones. How long did they take for delivery?

Not sure about Amazon, mine took 18 days from China from an ebay seller

I paid $130 CAD shipped on Amazon. Clearly from China as delivery says simply Nov 2 to Nov 23. And I just ordered last night. So 3 to 6 weeks.

Do you have the link to the seller of these on eBay?
Or on Amazon?
