--Today I took my car out for some spirited driving. Man, it's real fun to drive. One interesting difference I've found with my car from the new cam and race nozzles is what I call flywheel inertia. Example: When I run it out to 5k and shift, it revs to 5.5K by the time I can engage the clutch in the next gear. I don't remember it doing this before the recent upgrades. I think it's just a simple phenomena of the flywheel is accelerating faster than before and the inertia just over-revs it .5k rpm when I'm WOT. This makes for a nice launch into the next gear. Gettin fun now

Are you gonna buy the 4mo floor pan stuff new? I was having a look through my euro ETKA and noticed that it's not JUST the trunk pan that is different. They have diff 4mo part number or the sides of the trunk and the part under the rear seat too. I checked the prices with ECS and they really were NOT that bad... I think I might go that route. I'm guessing that the SIDES of the trunk have to be changed because the rear shocks mount differently? Not sure though.
The 4mo stuff from an r32 can be picked up CHEAP these days. FWIW (and I'm sure you know this), the prop shaft is the same in the R32 as the wagon. I was surprised by this because the wagon has a very slightly longer wheelbase according to spec sheets...

It (the manifold) does. The rest of your engine compartment is begging for some degreaser and a nice detailing thoughRomSL said:Doesn't it look lovely?
Damn, where did you get that? It looks AWESOME!!!!!Fixmy59bug said:...I just traded that wheel out for a New Scirocco steering wheel...
Damn. There's a story behind that I'm sure... This is on the wagon?penclnck said:Broke my trans.
