My dusty mauve <3 is still in my drive way... Those rolling shots were taken on the way to Waterfest 11. The Forge spacer, I heard good and bad things about it, I figured i'd give it a try... I'll let you know how I like it!

Looks good. A friend of mine had the AWE gauge in his old GTI 337.

Yeah the vent guage is pretty sweet it matches perfectly. I put the diverter spacer in tonight because it was warmer out. It sounds awesome, I have it venting 100% atmospherically right now and its good. Hopefully my suspension will ship soon! Oh yeah, and thanks for the praise here guys!

No problems w/ it running 100% atmospherically? My buddy said there would be a bogging issue from running rich on shifts.

The dusty mauve is going to be given to my brother... I would actually rather sell it to someone who would take better care of it than him. The B&G's were more expensive than the Patecs. I chose B&G not only because they are better than Patec (never had a problem with the Patec, great choice if your on a budget) but also because on the B&G's you don't adjust the height at the spring perch you adjust at the bottom of the strut so you dont limit your shock travel. Also, I was looking at PSS9's but they were about 400 more than my B&G's and I liked the idea of not limiting my shock travel. Oh, and about the car running rich between shifts, I haven't noticed any problems so far (only had it on for a day) but the ECU will adapt to the already metered air not being there. (I have the fully adjustable one so if I do have a problem I can switch it from 100% atmos. to 50/50 atmos/recirc. to 100% recirc.) Alot of people run them on vwvortex and only a handful have run into a problem with the older style DV and some people considering it "rice". But so far it seems to do what it claims to do... make psssht noises. If thats rice then thats okay.
