In San Diego, do I have to spend $1K for this project? I am at 90K miles and need to take action. I have asked a few places, and this seems to be the price. It is a big job, but maybe someone has perfected it and I can get done cheaper? Thanks for any shop referrals.

Any mechanics in San Diego that can help me install my catted (highflow) downpipe? Would like to take it to the track one more time. Thanks for the PM.

URGENT! I have not touched this 2007 GTI in over 4 years, but now it won't pass visual inspection. Need help (or suggestions) in Carlsbad area. Have the old parts, but not the knowledge any longer. 1.) AEM CAI is the problem. 2.) BSH catch can is problem. Thanks for suggestions on visual...

I really didn't expect this for 40K, 2007 GTI Stage 2+ APR. It is running great, but CA failed smog today (its first smog test ever). The smog tech asked if I had it chipped (yes - APR). He said those tuning specs can fry the cat converter. Maybe? I am wondering if I should replace the Billy...

I just removed my working factory Sirius radio receiver for 2007 GTI. No worries, be happy.

FS: $125 (OBO) OEM Front Bra for GTI Excellent condition. Looking for best offer around $125 (shipped). Had it mounted on 2007 GTI for 4 months.

Do you like the Seat Cupra matte stripe??? I'm getting a lot of rave reviews. http://www.matteblackwraps.net/gallery.html

I don't get around much to compare mods, but do keep an eye on this forum for ideas. I am installing a Koni/Eibach config on my 2007 MK5. I have new 18" wheels (not telling you yet) and need help on the tire decision. I might do a little autocross at Qualcomm and am about to purchase the Falken...

I have a "new to me" 2007 GTI (DSG transmission) with 13K miles. I have noticed problems with "response" when moving slowly from PARK either forward or backward. The engine revs, but the car does not immediately respond and move. I don't think this is any kind of turbo issue because on the ultra...

I want to swap out my GTI 2007 SIRIUS receiver. A trade is preferred.

ONLY THE BEST!!! Never opened, never mounted. Decided it's too much for my final system design. Please only good offers. Don't low ball, OK?:thumbsup:
