    I'm currently all sorts of pissy because I have to fast for 12 hours because my corporate overlords are drawing blood from the herd today. I can't eat anything til 11AM.

    Too bad you can't just drink your homebrew. I've had some of your brews and pretty sure a couple could be served as a full-course steak dinner as heavy as they were.

    Fasting before blood donation......what are they testing for?

    Well I've had my APR stage one on the GLI for about a week now and I have to say that I would do it again in a heart beat. You can take all the advice and stories but until you drive the difference for yourself it's indescribable.

    Mike, a Mk4 12V or 24V alternator will also work.

    Thanks man! Can't wait to put it back together... once I finish moving. Looking forward to hearing it too.

    On another note, tomorrow is another GTG at Pinky's.

    Yea I bet it's going to sound awesome man! Everyone is getting ready for SoWo... I know of a few surprises out there...

    Not sure what is going on at 634am... Pretty precise.... Beginning of the Space time continuum perhaps?

    I'm about to venture into new territory... gonna install the new header tomorrow. Given the history of my Corrado and how it has ALWAYS given me problems when I tried working on it, this should be fun.

    I have terrible news. It would appear that Max has VOIDED his warranty by exceeding his max engine speed at 4337/RPMs!

    FSI engines are only safely able to get to 4000RPM without chance of camshaft damage and HPFP failure. So it was voided on good terms.

    And when are we installing K04 Pete? Think I have my plans pinned down.....waiting on one side job to get dropped off and I should be able to pull the trigger and gain "Highest HP FSI" in the area for a while...lol
    -J. Hines

    I think I would finally be happy with the power output of the GLI(Until rods go in and boost goes up) And unlike most people, I like the subtle OEM+ look, so this fits me perfect for this car. The VR-T that will be coming soon though.......gonna flash that sh*t for everyone to see!! LOL
    It's a TSI, but you get the picture

    Nice work Dennis.... glad it went well for you.

    I know I am beating a dead horse here, but I REALLY need to sell the GTI, you guys know the car, you know I took good care of it. Help me sell it and I will be more than happy to pay you a finders fee.... Thanks in advance for any help you guys could give.

    A pic for memories, one of my favorite of the car. Thanks to Jeff K
