Definitely a massive difference! It was honestly getting frustrating to drive the car, always a challenge to find gears. Now it's actually enjoyable! Inspires me to drive it more

And drive a lot I do!

Glad to hear it! Had a few things come up, so I'm just now able to order it. We'll see how long shipping times are.

I will be there to check out all the great TDI's, but I will bring my new ride (not a TDI).

Do you want my wife to make anything or bring any food/drinks? The one about this time in LA last year was really well catered for and I would like to make up for my lack of support for the last one I attended!

Cheers

Six more days! Right of I 5, good location, lots of parking. Weather will be typical San Diego. Don't forget to bring some sunblock and a hat.

I will bring the Coleman Grill, a 6ft table, an ice chest, diet coke, ginger ale, water and plastic trash bags.

I won't be able to make it, sorry guys.

[LOUDERMAN]

Damn, that's unfortunate. Hope its not due to anything serious. I'm still planning on going, but I may have a sudden conflict at work to resolve first. Ill update if i can't make it.

On a side note, my diesel geek sigma shifter arrives tomorrow!

I'm going to try and come by. I'm a total noob! Just bought a 12 JSW. I belong to a local VW Club but its air cooled.

My and the wife are DOWN!!! I just got back from a 6 month deployment a couple days ago. I picked up my car in OR (left it with the folks in a safe place), but now I have a boost issue of course. Boost actual lags boost requested by about 200-350 mbarr, so that's quite a bit. Lug it too much below the torque peak and it'll go into limp, or what I think is limp. My guess is a boost leak from a ruptured charge pipe. I'm going to try to fix this beforehand, but worse comes to worse and I might need vcds (mine is in storage) and a helpful hand would be great! Woohoo!

[Matt-98AHU]

Yeah, Passat is definitely not making it. Still waiting on too many parts! Only have the bottom half of the engine together... Notgonnahappen.com

Hopefully I'll at least get what I need to PERMANENTLY fix the rear main leak on the Mk3.

[brandonfast]

my buddy and I will both be comming out early to hang for a bit and chit chat.

[john.jackson9213]

One more Day till the San Diego GTG! See you at 9 a.m. at Mission Bay.

Pappy will bring some brats and maybe a salad. I have the grill, a table, soft drinks, all the plastic cups, plates, forks, knives and napkins we will need.

Who else is bring some snacks, food and drink?

Weather will be great! Bring a hat and some sun block.

love both rides

[Camarones]

Would love to go but I'm not back in town for another couple of days.

[LOUDERMAN]

I'm probably leaving by 4:30 or 5 am, so I should arrive around 10am. How long my drive takes will determine how long I'm staying.
