You're soooo gonna get flamed for calling the TINTS!!
But I'm from South Florida and it's TINTS for me too, even if it's wrong!

62 ft/lb...from a TUNE!??! Holy heck, man...that's awesome. I'm guessing this helps and doesn't hurt MPG?!?! Glad you're enjoying it!

 

Dat torque!!!

 

moar pix

and dyno vids

 

This thread sucks.

 

Agreed! More pics/vids!

 

I need to drop by car like this:

 

Nice drop, but IMO wrong color for black tuner wheels. Looks really odd.

 

Yea, I wouldnt have put those wheels on it. Especially with all the chrome thats on the car.

 

x4

 

Wheels wouldnt be my priority over a tune, drop, exhaust, and back-up camera. The wheel gap on these cars are huge.

 

Need moar pics

 

Sorry to hear that you decided to get rid of the Audi..

You should have gotten rid of that German POS sooner and replaced it with a Genesis!

 

Not funny.

 

 

teh pix

 

I vote for coils and SSR Professor SP1's

Nice ride though, diesels love the ability to breathe, so get that bad boy an intake already!

 

 

Great shots, man...


Why you riding in the backseat?!! Saving money on hotels by sleeping in the car on these long road trips?

 

Got in the back to show the legroom. It's almost limo-like

 

Looks good man!

 

@ you not catching Jeremy's sarcasm....

we all know why you went back there man

 

Very nice

The corruption has begun *evil laugh*

Yesterday I got the Malone Tuning Stage 1.5 reflash and DSG reflash. Malone is well regarded in the TDi community. Now, I have somewhere around 290 lb-ft of torque at the wheels (like 330 at the crank). This is maybe 10 percent less than what the RS4 produced. And the DSG shifts are lightning quick.

Oh, and I got an addition 1 mpg highway. And yes, HP is still low at 158whp/180 hp crank (est).

 

Torque....om nom nom

 

290wtq .

Any plans for towing?

 

specially with 180HP LOL....woot i cant get to 100 in 5 seconds but cant go past it

 

Holy hell

 

Very nice! Nothing like 300 lbs/ft torque to get you out of the hole. Hmm, maybe that was the wrong way of putting it.

 

At 300lbs, it might be hard to even find the hole.





Wait, I misunderstood what you said...

 

Some vids I took....

 

Sorry to see you had to let the RS4 go but seems like it was needed before it killed your wallet.

 

holy shit the shifts are quick !!!

 

So I found and purchased a used VCDS/VAGcom cable for sale off of C-list. The passat has alot of hidden features that owners have unlocked using the cable, like rain-sensing wipers and keyless sunroof operation (like the TL/Accord). Cant wait to access those things


In other news, I'm looking for another fun AWD machine with a manual trans for 10K Looking at another Legacy turbo, but thinking about the Mazdaspeed6. Anyone have any suggestions? Need something to hold me while I shoot for a NSX in a year or two.

 

Why would VW put the features in the computer but lock them out? Every computer gets the same programming, but certain things are unlocked only if you buy an option package? Doesn't seem smart if people can just unlock the features themselves for (in essence) free.

 

^ agreed. They dont even offer the features turned on in the 2013. They were preparing for a rearview camera in 2013, so I decided to go that route and install one, I can activate that feature too.

 

I'm obviously biased on this, but I've had great luck with my MS6. The only thing is if you're planning on abusing it a.k.a. launching it hard from a dig you need to upgrade the rear diff mounts right away. They're notorious for snapping after hard launches. Other than that if you're just planning on a mild mod like mine, $1000 and you'll easily have 30hp/40lb ft over the stock 270hp/280lb ft numbers.

 

SuperTrooper, any threads that talk about how it handles offroad? Like gravel and such?

 

Debadged the Diesel beast this weekend. The tint is coming thursday
