MkV GTI with R32 rear end

[twisted by dezign]

Here are some pics of my car with the new mods I installed (R32 rear end and EJ R32 style TBE, Defi Blue Racer boost gauge):

Yes I know the gauge needs to be adjusted in these pic. It wasn't hooked up completely when I took the pics; just wanted to see what it looked like with the lights on.

Before and after video for the exhaust:

Took the shop about 4 hours to do the HPFP, rear end conversion, and the exhaust. As for the labor costs, it was like around $400 CAD and then another $250 to get reflashed to Unitronic Stage 2+. I also got the cam folllower replaced since it was starting to show signs of wear with just Stage 1; might as well put a brand spanking new one to get beat up on by the new parts and tune!

Thanks for the sound clip, it's awesome to be able to hear the difference like that. That TBE sounds wicked. Nice job! Where'd you get your R32 rear from?

Thanks I got the rear end conversion kit from www.pgperformance.com. Canadian company, though!

Boost gauge hooked up. I wired the illumination wire to the headlight switch but I don't think my wiretap cut into the headlight switch wire all the way so it's on permanent day mode. I actually like this a lot since I like the visibility of the gauge when I want to look at it.

Mines permanently night mode. Something is wrong with the dimmer and it keeps flashing, so i got it set to perm dimmed. I love your rear, I wish i had one.
