It will be a big cost for you - because your clutch most likely won't hold. Grab a used IS38 and a tune for $100 and give'er. Jonny will knock it out for you for a gentle hand job, most likely.
Brother my clutch couldn't handle the stage 2 tune lol. I've got the ACT in there now. It's doing all right, I don't mind a little chatter.

I can't just settle for an IS38, gotta be faster than Daks.

I didn't know the ACT was rated for 500 lbft. You can be faster than Daks in the US very easily, you have E. MPI, turbo, tune. Very fast car. I've been test driving cars over the last month; everything is a disappointment compared to the GTI when you give it. New Golf R is a lot slower than my car. Those hybrids really make a difference.

I think when I had the AliExpress touch screen panel in everything function just like my manual HVAC controls. Either way it wouldn't be an issue for you, your car has climatronic, doesn't it?

It will always be an issue with the partial retrofit because the climatronic panel can't properly control the door on a manual HVAC car.

Yep, has the dual zone climatronic. Was just more curious than anything.

E is very scarce in the Greater Boston Metropolitan Area. There's like, 4 stations that have it?

I hear the stories and whispers of the mysterious Suave Serbian in the great white north who just can't be beat...

Which is why flex is great.
Absolutely.....but it's just odd to be so readily available and yet very weirdly be clustered randomly all over the MidAtlantic....

Just had one WaWa open up with E 10 min away from me which I happen to pass 2x a week, so that helps

Mine started that shit a few months ago, I need to look at a replacement anyway cuz I also have the clearcoat peel line right in front of the sunroof.
I’ve still got the 2018/2019 Dieselgate warranty, so hoping I can sweet talk VW into covering it 🤞

There's a Harris Teeter gas station right by me that has 6 E pumps. Before that, there was only 1 E pump and it was in Norfolk, about 24 minutes away from me.
