Autotech hpfp failure with pics

Cars like EVO's and STI's get all the love.

But I also didn't pay 30K+ for my car.

No point getting in debt 30k+ anyway over something that’ll be worthless in 5 -10 yrs anyway, got into my old GLI fsi for 9, deer totaled it, got mkv r32 (wish it was 04’ version) for 12.

Yeah I hear you there. I bought my 06 GTI for 9K, I still owe 3K on it.

Yeah the 04 R32 is the only one worth buying. 6 speed manual. But I hate automatics, even if they technically can shift faster than me. Too boring.

I like the traction & the sound, transmission is only thing they could have kept standard. But with ecu & haldex flash I ran 14.2 @ 97mph. Mk4 was less weight & does low 14 stock. The 13’ golf R would be nice if that price came down more, haldex & k04

I can do 13's in my APR stage 2 GTI.

For what reason, if anyone knows, does Autotech, I.E., and some others not design the end of their piston to reuse the OEM button cap? The OEM button cap allows for better CF rotation and angular deviation if needed...does it not?
