Them wheels!!!!!

Thanks man. I'll just keep updating this cause I can lol

Found a minor boost leak at the suction jet pump valve. The exterior plastic seal Itself was letting a significant amount of air by at approx 15psi. Replaced that, and did some more logging to send off to the tuner. Feels about the same as before. Might spike 1-2 psi higher but pulls about the same.

Good news was the tuner said even at those lessened boost levels (due to leak) I had very little timing pull and that means we can get more aggressive with the next revision

Managed to lay hardwood in the hatch of the avant this past weekend. Came out better than I had expected.





Gave the interior a very detailed clean thanks to the expertise and some product from auto obsessed here in edmonton.

Also had a bunch of performance goodies ordered and delivered to the shop this week (mostly for customers) however snuck a couple things for ourselves in there aswell.



034 rear sway bar to stiffen up the gobs of body roll on this heavy ass car.

THEN! I got home and this happened

my uncle backed into me. He's offered to pay for all repairs, just sucks big time as that bumper was just resprayed this spring along with a couple other panels.

So I get to deal with that bs now aswell.

Ps: oh it's wheel Wednesday? I can play

Thanks guys! No it was a stock upper I had hacked up to fit the lower. However I don't feel like dealing with that again, so my uncle will be paying for the usp upper lol.

The 034 bar is great. I havnt really had to many opportunities to throw the car around hard. But when I have it felt much "tighter" than previously. Cloverleaf entrances to highways I can damn near scare myself, where as before tons of under steer accompanied with tire squeal lol.

It's set on the softer setting ATM, because I've heard of guys breaking the factory links on the stiffer setting. But overall for the price (~$200) it was a great buy, would recommend for sure. And install was a breeze. 30 min tops (on hoist)

Re: New guy

So not to much is new lately,

On the second revision of my Motoza tune and still loving it. Peaks at about 20psi and holds 18 pretty strong. Got spacers installed on all 4 corners finally. The bumper damage from my uncle has been repaired, and I was fortunate enough to be able to drive out to vancouver for this years Great Canadian VW show. It was a damn good time. Loveeee BC. Car ran like a top, didnt burn a drop of oil (despite being driven fairly hard lol)

On to the good stuff.







Also been tinkering with this gopro i picked up, grabbed a clip of my exhaust.

Unitronic HFC and 3" downpipe and Magnaflow 16601 catback

It's seriously like a whole new tune all over again even compared to Stg 1. Highly recommend it
