    Niice. Hey, I'm from Pennsy too, do you know if can pass smog check with that? Also, does it help the exhaust note?

    Superjealous, that is awesome.

    Craigslist for $200! ... Don't look too closely at the VIN on that thing :-)

    I'm pretty sure it should pass smog tests, the filter just sits closer to the front of the car than the filter that the Neuspeed kit originally comes with. No change with the exhaust note, but the turbo spool and diverter valve blow off sound is nice and loud!

    Just installed my forge short shifter both pieces front to back and side to side.

    Took about an hr and a half with a friend, but I am mechanically challenged. Should prob take 45min- an hr

    Your hands will get dirty lol



    Oem vs forge front to back



    The feel is incredibly sporty. I really love it. I set it to the lowest settings 40% reduction both ways.

    If your thinking about one definitely pull the trigger I'm upset I waited so long.

    Even more good news...I currently have the leather wrapped 4 spoke MFSW and assumed it was going to be a dual stage airbag, but was surprised to see a single stage. The 3 spoke I got with the wheel is a single stage, so it's plug n play now other needing the airbag harness.

    You're a lucky guy. I paid $250 for a wheel with paddles and no airbag thinking that my airbag would fit. Not the case, Now I'm stuck tracking down an airbag.

    When I first installed hids on my 2007 b6 I put my keys in the spot seen below. Then I couldn't find my keys for a week. ( I had to used the spare keys that week. )

    Anyways about a week later I poped the hood to top off the oil and my missing key was sitting right there where I left it lol. Never again will I put my keys there when working on the engine haha.

    Took my car into the body shop. I got hit twice in one week . Somebody hit my rear bumper causing a little damage to the votex rear and bumper. 3 Days later I get backed into while the car was parked, at the shop that was doing my timing belt. 700 for the timing belt job and 1800 in damages. It needs a new bumper cover, clear corner and the lens molding and cover. It also needs repair to the driverside fender that was bent. 6 years no accidents and now twice in one week. It's a good thing I have uninsured motorist coverage.

    Are these CC seats? Are they a direct swap? Or do you need some modding to make them fit? Some details would be appreciated.
