YES! See post 96 in this thread for the installation in my car with the transmission in place.So I have to ask, can the 6 speed conversion be done with the transmission still in the car? Thanks, RT

The tire size you select can have more difference than a .62 or .59 Sixth gear ratio.I was looking at the charts and now realize that my stock tire size is not 185 cm circumference, it is about 195 CM.
I wish they had a .62 gear
We have kits in stock, consignments are sent in 2 weeks after ordering, shipping time to USA, Canada takes about 5-8 days...I need to remove my transmission for a clutch. Trying to get it done this weekend. Is there anyway if I ordered the kit tomorrow i'd have it by friday?
Are there any shops in the bay area familiar with this install?
Just do it!! It is worth it.Really, Really, Really want one of these kits for my GTDI...
Good newsAnyone know if a shop in the California east bay area that does these installs?
I might be persuaded to do it... depends on timeframe. I still need to contact the 20 or so people who need work done at the GTG next month...Anywhere else?
The '09 and '10 model had slightly taller gearing if I'm not mistaken... You're only upgrade would be from a '11+ car.Hey, I have a 2009 Jetta TDI. I was wondering if there are any steeper 6th gear kits? I know this was possible with the MK4 But would this be possible with my transmission. (6-Speed)
Nope sorry.Thanks, you wouldn't happen to know where I can get one?
You can do all the math you want. It saves mileage and the biggest gain is when you drop it in to 6th and everything goes mmmmmmmm quieter. I love my 6th gear.
I agree. I'm running a .622 5th and shifting into it is quite unnatural. It's also terrible not having the gear the belongs in the middle. I will be installing a 6-speed as soon as I get the fresh long-block together.Don't spend your money on the long 5th gear mod. Go directly to the 6 speed conversion and enjoy.
This is half the reason I am going to try and do this kit by the end of this year.You can do all the math you want. It saves mileage and the biggest gain is when you drop it in to 6th and everything goes mmmmmmmm quieter. I love my 6th gear.
Fluid.So for $1470 I'll get a complete 6 speed conversion shipped to my door in the US? Any other parts needed?
