    Any good shops near Marlborough MA?

    I think I felt some clutch slip on my R last night. Not sure if I want to try to get it replaced under warranty or not just to have it happen again. I asked before about a good shop in the area but it was in Haverhill and an hour away from me. I was hoping for something closer. Also I...

    Possible idle issue

    Anyone else notice their R not idle ideally when first started primarily? Its nothing crazy, but there is a little tiny dip in the rev every so often like a fish bite. This normal? Rest of the time the car drives perfectly like a bat out of hell.

    Neuspeed rse10 vs VMR 803?

    Does anyone have pictures of these on their mk7? They are both beautiful and have similar specs. There are slight differences though and I was wondering how happy people are with these and what they look like on the car. I have found the neuspeeds on here but no one seems to have the VMR...

    3" Down pipe but what about stock exhaust?

    Ok so stage 2 tunes require only a downpipe. This will be 3 inch diameter. The stock is 2. Now if one just does a downpipe I assume the rest of the stock exhaust is 2" diameter still so doesn't this defeat the purpose? Does one need an adapter or does the stock exhaust open up to 3" post cat...

    Anyone running these clutches?

    Don't want to be pessimistic but there are reports of clutch slipping already with GTI stage 1 upgrades. So I am researching a new clutch to be ready. Anyone run some of these? Also there is an Rs4 euro clutch on ESCtuning that looks like a good option. Anyone know if this fits? Of course...

    Race mode

    Can anyone tell me what Race mode does to the engine? I know it makes the DSG change how it shifts and it makes the sound generator louder but does it do anything mechanically to the engine or throttle? Thank you.

    Front license plate bracket

    Anyone here give this a try yet for those of us who live in one of more lets just say "regulated" states? [emoji6]. I know it's pricey but it avoids holes and airflow restriction. http://m.ebay.com/itm/161580499063 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    wheel spacers

    Does one always have to thread new studs into the rotor to have wheel spacers for them to be safe? i.e. so that the lug nuts can grab enough stud. Is this hard to do? Thank you.
