Let us know how you like that one.

It's been on my short-list for a while now. I love my m12 stubby impact and hex driver.
Get one, I love mine. Used it yesterday to change an upstream O2 Sensor for my neighbor. It busted those old bolts for the heat shield loose with no problem.

The Moog links I used for my front-end overhaul are too long, and binding on the passenger side especially. So in searching for adjustable ones, stumbled upon a forum post where someone mentioned these shortened links designed for lowered cars. They're for the Mk5 but work on the Mk7, and were pretty cheap. Gonna see if they could be random forum gold.

Been wanting to try this 034 Motorsports Carbon Fiber Air Duct and just put it in this afternoon.
Also getting some wheels put on tomorrow. Enkei TS-V (Storm Gray). Pretty stoked that they only weigh 19lbs!

Some sexy new Bilstein B4 struts to replace the blown ones. Rock auto managed to get me the struts in less than 24 hours but now I have to wait on FCP Euro for the rest of the install goodies. Also likely going to wait to install until I buy the rears. I don’t know if I’m up for getting two alignments if I install on separate days.

Managed to snag a used Accessport for my exact engine and trans code. Came with Sneekytuned stage 1 93 and E48 files along with EQT Stage 2 93 and Stage 2 E85 files.

I’m not familiar with Sneeky tunes so I may just wait until I come up with a downpipe. I feel like the E48 file is custom?

Might be a 50/50 blend of 93/E85

Sure - I guess I was wondering if they make an OTS E48 tune or was it likely a custom tune for the previous owner? Which was 2 owners ago for this AP.
Id guess it’s a OTS tune. Just because it’s stage 1, not sure who’d pay for a custom tune stock turbo and downpipe

I remember the first drive when I switched from the BBS wheels to the Gram Lights. Even at only 4 lbs. a wheel, I could tell the difference immediately.
