Did you drive a DSGay car or just the ? We had pretty similar Mk6's so I'm curious to your thoughts on how they compare.
Any plans for m0dZ?

With automatics as good as DSG available, there is no reason to buy
Your GTI was GIAC stage 2 right?[user not found] wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 1:41 pmI did drive both and while the DSG was obviously faster in everyway, I am not sure how many years I have left to buy a new manual.

Im also debating on getting a as my next car as well partly due to it, even though im happy with my DSG GTI.[user not found] wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 1:41 pmI did drive both and while the DSG was obviously faster in everyway, I am not sure how many years I have left to buy a new manual.
Nephew of a a few first gen immigrant on DFD, resident turk, and ex nazi egg lover now driving a middle class mom mobile.
With all the mods I did to the GTI, maybe? It was stage 2 so intake, turboback, front and rear sways, unibrace, shift lever, and a dogbone insert as far as parts that matter. Can't forget either.
It had significantly more character because of the intake and exhaust. Less roll because of the sways and I think it's just about as fast as the R. It was just tremendously unreliable. Worst on DFD.
I remember. that you got another one.Gberg2119 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:45 pmWith all the mods I did to the GTI, maybe? It was stage 2 so intake, turboback, front and rear sways, unibrace, shift lever, and a dogbone insert as far as parts that matter. Can't forget either.

Yup. It's got a diller plate on it. They're most certainly driving the shit out of it.

It should really be added as a new metric for used cars. How many farts and three ways has the car been through.Apex wrote: ↑Thu Jul 18, 2019 1:27 pmI should inquire with them and check if any three-ways have been had in the car...[user not found] wrote: ↑Thu Jul 18, 2019 1:09 pm And they've put like 500 miles on it hahahaha.
