    FS: Unitronic downpipe w/ o2 spacers, Vibrant resonator

    $350 OBO. Willing to ship if you want to pay for it. Located in San Francisco Bay Area. De-modded a little down to stage 1 so I'm selling this. I've tried SPM and AWE - IMO neither can touch the Unitronic downpipe in ease of install, fitment and long-term quality. Fits MK6 GTI's, possibly MK5...

    Bad turbo? Exhaust leak?

    This sound started happening about a week ago. No change in how much or how hard I've been driving the car. 2012 with 70k miles. APR stage 2, Unitronic intake and downpipe. High pitched squealing noise that sounds like a belt slipping - if you know what sounds like. The squeal gets quickly...

    WTB: Neuspeed RSe05 or WTT: Neuspeed RSe12

    Is this my rear sway bar creaking?

    Creaking? Clunking? Not sure what the official term is but my car sounds like its riding on styrofoam almost and makes a fairly loan creaking noise as I go over speed bumps or a big enough road imperfection like dips or a manhole cover. Hotchki RSB that I just relubricated maybe a month ago via...

    Alignment specs after WALK install

    Car is lowered on DG springs. Tyrolsport Deadset collars up front. Stock shocks. 18x8 ET45 wheels with 225/40 tires at 38 psi. Rear sway bar also if that matters. Daily driver and I really only go mountain carving once every few months at most. Other than that it's normal streets and on ramps...

    Muffler dent and stain removal

    Noticeable dent on muffler can. Would that affect sound or reliability at all? If so, anyone have ideas on how to get it out without ruining it? I found a few ideas on Google but wanted to ask around here also. Also, I've used wadding polish on the tips and gotten most of the carbon gunk out...

    SF Bay Area side window repair?

    Some mofo who will have hell to pay one day if Karma gods are good ... Smashed both of my rear door glass windows. Pulled my seat down and snatched my MacBookPro and everything else in my backpack. So pissed. Is there any concern over what brand glass is used to replace the side windows? I've...

    Discount Tire sale

    Too bad there isn't anything special going on for Michelin's right now. But anyways, there are a few brands I've read about here on the forum. Any of these look like a good deal to jump on? My stock tires are about 10k away from needing to be replaced so I'd like to jump on a steal if I can...

    CA owners: Throwback Legacy Plates

    Saw this on the news just now. If my car wasn't white ( white plates blend in best with white paint ), I would spend a little to get in on this: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/legacyplates/index.htm.

    Haven't been to a car show in years but ...

    If this is an example of the attendees' IQ level then I'm staying away forever. _z2K2lCgbXw - Why are you trying to drive up that if your car is obviously too low? - Why are you trying again if your car already told you no? - Why are you going up so fast on your 3rd try? - Why didn't your girl...

    Digital multimeter / hard wiring help

    Trying to hard wire into accessory power only at this point. So I don't want it to have any power when the car is off, only when I have it started or in accessory position. Got a freebie multimeter pictured below but am not sure how it works. I'm trying to find a fuse position that does what I...

    Removing exhaust paste

    After being told that I had a slight exhaust leak by the turbo flange/gasket area, I'm going to be taking my AWE downpipe off for a thorough inspection and peace of mind this weekend. Hope its just a blown gasket or that I didn't tighten the nuts up enough. Previous owner of my downpipe put...

    Opinions Wanted: Outward Facing Magnaflow Tips

    To each their own and I'm going to do what ultimately I prefer here but just fishing for some thoughts and opinions on 4" Magnaflow tips mounted at an angle facing outwards instead of the traditional straight back orientation. At certain angles I like how it follows the valence and the bumper...

    FS: 42DD 42 Draft Designs CBE Catback Exhaust

    SOLD! Just picked this CBE up from another member a few weeks back but have decided to go back to the stock CBE. I mounted it and drove for no more than 25 miles before I uninstalled it. This is so unused that the insides of the pipes have little to no build up on them still. This is 42DD's...

    Tire Sealant

    Found a giant screw in my tire earlier and had to get it patched up. This is about the 3rd or 4th one I've gotten in my tires over the past 2 years or so. Buddy helped me patch it up at his shop but told me to look into tire sealant. Slime or Ride On are brands he mentioned to me. Basically...
