Re: R32 Roll Call

Sorry to hijack but how do you like the vflow intake? Was thinking of getting one for my gli and have heard mixed things.

Re: R32 Roll Call

Hard to say since I went from a stock intake, but on Vortex in the .:R32 forums, its V-flow or nothing. I just went with majority vote. Absolutely no complaints here though.

And now back to your regularly scheduled thread.

Re: R32 Roll Call

how much does it cost to have your ecu taken out? what was the turn around time..?

might do this while i get some work done on my car before i track it again. (sleeping beauty)

Re: R32 Roll Call

i have not pulled an ecu on the R yet but i did on my b5 S4 and on my mk4 gti, both were very simple and quite easy, there should be a DIY on vortex for how to do it but like i said, very easy and only takes 2-3 mins max.

Re: R32 Roll Call

I was able to cross some things off the future mods list. Keeping my silver/black theme going...
- black Jcaps
- black coil pack covers
- retrofits from rodgertherabit.
No pics of the lights at night yet. I'll add some later.

Re: R32 Roll Call

looking good dude! diggin the silver on black

Also wanted to ask what everyone driver their R in RPMs on average on different speed zones. usually in a 80 im in 4th or 5th around 2400-2600 rmp. 60 im in 4th just above 2000, 50 im in 3rd. i find this gets me the best gas mileage, what about everyone else?
