    I bought the wife a 2.5 5spd mk6 jetta, i drive it sometimes as well, seems to be lacking in the mid-upper rpms, just wondering what else is out there for this car. Most 2.5 content i have run across is mk5 or mk6 golf but not jetta. I plan to go with a UM tune soon.

    Not a single person on this site can tell me if there is anything out there for this car? really? I was hopeing atleast a vender would come in here and say "hey we have this this and this in the works for this car." and have it be something worth while

    Carbonio makes a MK6 intake (by now, a few others probably do too), a couple companies have tunes, BFI's mounts should work on a MK6, NLS short shifter is MK6 compatible, 42DD shift cable bushings... Not sure about exhausts, and I know the MK5 SRI's aren't compatible.

    A smarta$$ remark doesn't encourage people to want to help. The Carbonio and Neuspeed intakes fit.

    Just search and browse. Plenty there.

    What smartass remark?
    As i had said before though, was hard to find anything that i knew for sure would work on the jetta, most things i came across were for the 2.5, but for the mk6 golf or mk5 rabbit, didn't have mk6 jetta 2.5 listed.

    Awesome, the plans for this car are tint/wheels/low for looks. And I would like to do CAI, catback exhaust and tune. I have seen there was a header avalible for the 2.5 rabbit iirc, but i haven't seen one for the jetta yet, does anybody make one?
    I just showed the wife the video of the AWE exhaust, she wants it
