you can use that pic.

Also I realized, the flapper opens up a lot more. Used to open up at high speed and high rev. and now around ~ 4k rpm it will open. make the stock pipe sounded nice....

Anyone in my area has VAG-COM and willing let me to use. I will buy a case of beer of your choice.

I will travel around 50 miles to meet up.

Jelly of your LED's.

To this day the sight of an HPA puck before it's installed makes me smile. Such an awesome piece of hardware.

waiting on my next pay check so I can get the rest of stuff then my stage 1 mod will be almost complete.
Question, should I get the dog bone then install them together or just install the puck for now then do the bone later?

**PSU** · 06-25-2011 08:08 AM

Nice set of mods you got there.

**foreverblue** · 06-30-2011 06:19 PM

1552 is the US distributor for Newing Alpil.

The carbon lip is awesome for our cars as well. I had that before I went wide. I sold it to a friend in Washington. With shipping and such it's around 1000 bucks, but worth every penny in my book.

Newing parts aren't cheap, but the quality is there. They fall on the car as if they were meant to be there.

William, you need to do a complete thread on your car. I'd love to see some more up close detailed pictures of the kit and a full modlist, etc.

Question: should I get BORLA Cat-Back first or do ECU and DSG Flash?

imo, you'll feel the effects of the flashes more than the exhaust. Do you prefer that over the sound of a great exhaust?

Having both, I'd go tunes first.

**foreverblue** · 07-09-2011 09:54 PM

Because the price on them, I only can do one per month so that will be my August and Sep. purchase. looks like I am going to miss the special for AP Tuning...

I wonder why my friend tell me it's better to do exhaust first before the tune?? beside the sound exhaust will decrease the back pressure so more hp for the engine?

I'm sure there are people that will argue one or the other. I went in the order of intake > exhaust > tunes just because my mindset was to improve airflow and then get tunes to take better advantage of the mods I had done up to that point.

I just think you'll "feel" the tunes a lot more power/throttle response wise.

There's no beating the borla sound though. A tune won't give you that. lol.

**foreverblue** · 07-09-2011 10:06 PM

so the order of getting exhaust and tune doesn't matter in the end will be the same?

**mfbmike** · 07-09-2011 10:29 PM

No, not really. It's just a matter of preference I suppose in this case.

The BSH pendulum mount comes with the dogbone mount.

They should give us the choice to get it either with or without the insert...

Why not?

The puck has nothing to do with the pendulum mount.
