    the other bagged tiguan never posted a pic fully inflated, i'm curious how high it goes, could you ?

    EDIT, watched the video on page 2, the front seem to go higher than the rear, are you able to reach the same stock height ?

    Right, the front is higher than the rear. the has the slam kit brackets with the upper spring nipple cut off. The rear is also lower than the front and tucks quite a bit more when aired out. I am still not notched on the right front so that might help the front come down more when I do that. I can reach stock height but it is REALLY stiff and bouncy at that height. I usually drive about an inch above aired out with no rub or any problems.

    Size is a bit overkill, but I told you I wasn't joking about the bracing haha.

    Its 2.5" and I'm gonna grind the bottom strait down with my grinder. Did anyone you guys have to remove the charge pipe off the Turbo to get to the back side to weld? Looks like I'm gonna have to do that.

    yes you should def remove charge pipe of that turbo before welding, looks very similar to mk6. after removing pipe cover turbo inlet with some sort of a rag or a blanket, so nothing goes into turbo.

    I want to see some shots with the notch!

    You would get a bit more rear lift if you upgraded to either Koni or Bilstein rear shocks
