What did you get in the mail or bring home for your MKVII today?

After getting walked by a Kia stinger GT on the highway last night - my ego decided to speak. I will also be ordering either a tpc20 or tpc38 on Monday. Enough is enough.

I want one of these just to put on my desk. Looks like a little piece of well engineered art

An offer to re-up Sirius/XM. However, it came from the dealer from where I bought the car and not Sirius since Sirius has actually been very good about taking me off their "Try to get back into the fold" mail list which actually surprises me a bit. Not only was canceling the service totally easy but asking to be removed from marketing efforts and actually doing it were some definite surprises.

For some reason my Sirius trial never turned off.

It's crazy how small this is for how much it costs. But that's the way it goes...

My initial plan was to get this, install it, and run a Stage 2 HPFP file for a little bit, and then grab a Vortex during the boost weather sale. However, patience isn't one of my strong suits, so....

Had a big shopping day today.

EQT Vortex Std with Actuator
Turbo install kit, Liqui Moly Priming Additive, & set of Denso IKH24's from FCP
Bearing puller (for HPFP install), and stubby Torx & Hex sockets from Amazon

It gonna be good....

In my experience removing the engine makes installing the turbo so much easier.

Also since we’re on the subject I just got this to replace my eBay special downpipe. Expecting a thumbs down from Diggs any moment now.
