Martin dropped off his GTI last night so we could get an early start first thing this morning on his APR K04 kit install. He had been saving up for the kit and Uncle Sam's annual gift helped him take the plunge. Perfect timing too, as Martin is able to take advantage of APR's "Spring Into Power" Sale. A Carbonio Stage 1 and Stage 2 intake had previously been installed in an earlier appointment to get the car ready for the big performance jump.



Accompanying the turbo kit is APR's RSC turbo-back exhaust...



And while we've got the car up in the air we'll be sure to install Neuspeed's torque arm insert, one of the least expensive yet most effective modifications available for the Mk6.



Wrapping up the install will be a Vogtland coil-over suspension kit and a set of the Hartmann Euromesh 4 wheels. Stay tuned for the final result!

Just heard Martin's VW (Mk6) GTI fire up for the first time after installing the APR RSC turbo-back exhaust system and K04 turbo upgrade... Now to get that Vogtland coil-over kit on there and it will be all ready for pick-up!

drool...

[hilld]

How about you attach a sound clip, to make us all drool.

[Dion@ACHTUN!NG]

We rarely get time to make them to be honest. Tough to justify to the higher-ups when APR has several hosted on their YouTube channel...

In 30+ years, this is the first time Hartmann Wheels has their own center cap!



Achtuning is proud to offer a free set of Hartmann Wheel caps with every Hartmann Wheel order. Hartmann Wheels are still compatible with select OE wheel caps for those looking for a "factory look."

A VWR short-shift kit also made its way into the Achtuning Golf R today. Here it is below sitting next to an OEM one for comparison. The VWR kit is an OEM-like upgrade in that it feels OEM smooth but offers up to a 25% reduction in throw with it's adjustable linkage.





After a quick drive around the neighborhood, this is a short-shift kit we'd recommend every VW Mk5/6 owner (with a M/T of course) picks up.

[98DUB]

is that basically the same as the S3 shifter? price?

[Dion@ACHTUN!NG]

It would be compatible with the S3 but isn't an S3 part as it's not adjustable.

[Pineapplegti !]

Please start knocking off Savanahs for the tiguan crowd.. that is all.

[Dion@ACHTUN!NG]

Not sure I've seen that style available, but it wouldn't be impossible. This one isn't too far off...
