I got the Raceng Slammer on a group buy on the dead forum years ago in stainless..... heavy as hell but is really affected by temp.......
Well, you went stainless.

Coated knobs are much more resistant to temp. Mine still gets hot in the :meata: but it’s never too hot to hold.
:yesth: I wish I knew these coated ones were available at the time...Red would look great against the :plaid:

Buy a 39k dollar car then put some bullshit signal manipulator in like it's fucking 1985. Yes it works, no it's not the right way to do things.
Unitronic seems to be the way to go. T00n it in your own garage. No need to go to some specific diller.
Unitronic was great back in the day on my MK6 :like:

Exactly my feels lol. When I see vampire connectors on a new cars harness.... Bruh.
And people thinking it's warranty safe. Like :bruh: if you have a significant failure and they pull logs and see improbable signals, you think they won't figure it out,?
They wouldn’t figure it out if you VW bruhs hadn’t spent the last decade putting toonz in everything you owned and built a reputation.

Well earned reputation. It's pretty darn easy not to get a warranty denied for a tune. You just don't tune.

And if tuna'd within reasonable limits, will probably never result in a failure to prompt a denial.

No worries, I was only really free on Friday and didn't decide we were going until Wednesday anyway.

And was your armrest locked?

My armrest was open.

Windows open, a bunch of controls around the active assist and shit, memory on heated seats, all sorts of going home light options, soundkarator levels, valve control, throttle response (I don't know what it does and haven't done it but it's there)
Set "starting vibration reduction" to zero/off. It helps remove the torque limiter in first/second gear, and it's pretty much gone when you code it to fully turn off the stability control/ECS.

On a VW spacers are easy and cheap, grab them on ebay and some longer lug bolts. Should be <$100 shipped total for 4 spacers and 20 bolts.

FWIW when I had my :turoyaris: the :dillerman: I bought it from was actually a Uni dealer and made me feel pretty good about still using the warranty if needed. I never had to, but I'd see if there are VW :dillerman: selling t00ns, it would be worth a bit more driving to me.

It's definitely :dillerman: dependent. Having the worst :mk6: ever, I was never denied warranty repairs on it. The t00n was never brought up and they knew I was t00ned at 7k miles.
