Sweet ride jimbote, when you pulled up I think everyone stopped what they were doing to check you out.
Great GTG, wish I could have stayed longer.
Thanks Andrew for the awesome tune. I have to say the increase in torque from 2K to 3K is incredible.

Spotted someone today in Brevard! Silver MK4 TDI with the vanity plate NVMYMPG haha.
That is a friend of mine that I worked with for about 4 years. We have worked on his car many times and the car is stone stock. The last work was a TB replacement and he is getting 50+mpg consistently since he has owned the car. He is a really good friend and a TDI nut; married to a wonderful woman and has a 2 year old son.:)

Great together! Great to see all the cars especially the caddy with all the work that has gone into it. I picked up a case of PBR 40's on the way home. I did not get to fill up with bioDiesel though. I passed the exit because DieselFueler and I were trying to figure out whose car was better suited for accelerating onto the interstate ;) I can't say we really figured it out.

Awesome pics guys from a great day!

Thank you, Daniel, Landon and Karen for offering your beautiful property for another perfect GTG, the weather must have been ordered well in advance. I always enjoy the great company of fellow TDI'ers especially the many regulars, it feels like a big family reunion.
Chad thanks for the quick delivery with the porta-potty, wished you could have hung out a while, wondered how the bus build is going.

Hope to see everybody at the next GTG.

Many Thanks to Landon, Daniel and Karen for a wonderful GTG. Thanks also goes out to Bruce for your help and the doggie collar.

Daniel, thank you for getting my block off plate boost leak take care of. I now know next time to give a little extra torque when tightening the bolts.

Sadly, none anymore
I am sorry I could not stick around to witness the injector testing. That looks incredible! What nozzles were being used?
