Yeah the dealer should have bolts for you. I'd go ahead of time to make sure they have stock or can order them in.

Got my Kit from DBC Performance. All bolts included, shipped to the border for less then ECS.

damn for all the stuff i listed above shipping was like 80 bucks. think i am going to hold off on exhaust and revo tune. going to go back to school and use the rest of the cash for that.

[uber8vs]

[Scott'sVR]

School's important.

If anything, just go stage1 and forget the exhaust. I'm really happy with stage 1 for the hp/$ value.

I ship all ECS orderes to the border, their Canadian shipping rates are too expensive even when considering the time/fuel/tax to go down to Pembina, (usually) occasionally USPS is fairly priced.

i figure with school, i get a better job and more money from that job so not only is there a future there but essentially more money for the car after a while.

im not allowed into the states for another year

do you have a boost gauge? I just ordered the new south steering column kit and have no idea how to install it.

[chrismkay3]

you're on the right track on this one. trust me as i'm done school with a good job now, cars become so much easier to afford.

It's so nice to know that if you want to buy coils or wheels or something and just be able to do it. or if you want to buy another car, no big deal you just buy one.

what are you in school for?

going to start heavy duty mechanics in sept.

I just found out that ups wants 176 bucks for a brokerage fee which is crazy.

[canadaTDi]

Yes i have a boost gauge, it's in the left center air vent.

There are DYI's on how to install them, check the mkv section stickies and on golfmkv.
