    I'll be there, Also Steve posted on facebook that Georgian college is looking for some nice aircooled and watercooled VW/Audi's to show up Saturday June 2nd to show your cars at the 2012 Autoshow. The perk is you get free entrance into the show. If interested, email Julian Nicosia ; jnicosia1@gmail.com
    Ha ha, hate to say it, but I told you so....

    As for the georgian show, yes the more the merrier. I think I spoke with matt via pm. The auto show committee approached me, asking me to try and find some cool cars. VW/Audi or other to be able to park in the show. They have a show n shine they put on.

    It's an Amsoil EA dry filter, not oiled. I don't want to mod the car's engine in any way as I'm interested in maximum fuel mileage.

    Look at how dirty the old filter was (left) compared to the new one (right)

    Nasty! If you are interested in mileage, I'd suggest a nozzle upgrade.. 10-15hp/30-40ftlbs and a 5% increase in mileage. My best tank in my old 99.5 ALH was 58.7MPG US.. I was making around 170whp at the time as well

    I was scared when I went into Vdubbs and asked if they could do a oil change with synthetic but use the bigger oilf filter so i can hold a extra liter and he said he never heard of that before. They seemed very nice though at the shop.

    1756 turbo, R520's, PD150 intake mani, etc etc etc..

    The limit with the vnt15 is about 125-135whp.. Anything more then that and things get very expensive.

    How much would a nozzle upgrade cost? Who sells them?

    You need an injector puller, new sealing washers and a mityvac is helpful to prime the pump.

    If you aren't mechanically inclined, this job isn't for you.

    Picture time, great turn out again. One note I would like to make and I wish I had a picture but there was some a$$ in a Rx8 ripping around the parking look and did a burn out(well tried) thinking he was the sh!t also we had some rice as well at a euro meet, But i can forgive them becasue I was rolling in a 2004 Grand Prix GTP Comp G and my friend showed up in his dropped ford fusion and had some others.

    On to the pictures
