    I know, I'm just bugging, but I'm also not light on the gas.

    Speaking of spark plugs, who wants to give me their puller for the VR6?

    scanned with my vagcom on blocks 14,15 and no misfires

    car is super smooth and seems to have more kick than before so i'm glad on that.. i'll rock the 7e's next time and see how they do

    Did some more logs tonight it was a bit cooler out and i didn't get nearly as big of a spike it barely hit 25 if it did at all. Maybe just the thin air out here? Maybe i will just put in a MBC in parallel set it to 23 and call it a day.

    Nope, that sounds about right. Aggressive, but normal...

    all changed now.. most difficult coil pack to remove was passenger side front of engine.. what a pita..other than that easy enough

    car runs like a champ.. feels much smoother for sure! i haven't logged any 115 or 116 with my vagcom yet but i will tommorow and see how it rolls

    Gauges are cheap... I have an extra VDO laying around if you want to test... or just buy a new one! The new AWE look awesome.. esp for $85

    Did you get your buzzing stopped? My new AWE gauge setup is kinda Frankenstiened... cut off piece here.. new piping here... fuel liter added here.... no buzzing now.. and just a tiny bit of vibration at WOT.

    Tactic: a boost gauge install will seriously take you an hour with a 1.8T if you all have the neccessary parts... pretty easy.
