Turning IrfanView loose on his hood shot, and gleaning info from the reflection of the sign he's in front of...

It will have an Upsolute chip, Kerma PP520 injectors and H&R OE springs with Koni FSD struts on it by spring. (Possibly some bigger wheels, depending on how funds go.) I am also working on a "stealth" guage for EGT, Boost, and Oil pressure, which I need before I start getting crazy with the engine.

BTW, the car does look nice. What color, BTW? I can't quite tell whether it's black or some shade of really dark green...

Galactic Blue (according to VW) the paint color is something like Dark Blue Pearl.
It really picks-up other colors around it and usually shows up as black in pictures.

Nice looking car. I like the mileage the pic was taken @. 39999.
How hard was it to install the short shifter??

Thanks, several people have commented on the mileage picture, mainly the gassers with the "435 miles on just over a half tank of gas!!"
The short shifter is really easy (the hard part was pulling the old shifter bracket, but a slide hammer took care of that)
Adjustment was straightforward, if you properly, and fully, follow Dieselgeek's instructions it needs no tweaking.
It was notchy for a week or so, but now I can’t remember the car without it.
It helped most of my shifting grinds, and feels really solid.
Now I am thinking I might need to add the B&M short shifter to reduce throws even more.

Radio has been F-ing up for about 3 weeks,
Dealer replaced the Antenna wire, and the radio still said the antenna was disconnected, and the outputs were reported as "Shorted" through VAGTool/VAG-Com, The dealer tested it with another radio and found that everything appeared to work, but put mine broken one back in while they ordered a replacement.
I guess I bumped the power and turned on the radio when I was getting out and it caught fire. Earlier in the evening it had made popping/crackling noises through the speakers when turning it on.
I did manage to put the fireout with a small kitchen B&C (grease electrical) fire extinguisher, I doused the blaze with it and slammed the doors. it was out when the Fire department arrived. (~5-10 min later)
still waiting on insurance to inspect it, then will decide what I am going to do.
uploaded more pics-

Come one now, a little bit of interior work and she will be good as new
On a serious note, glad no one got hurt. I pack my family around and with two in carseats it would be real hard to get everyone out quickly.
