Been driving on a $35 coil from Oreilly Auto, think the brand is Import Direct. It’s been working like a charm, and really I don’t see the need to replace it right now. I’ll have my OEM ones back with me shortly, but will wait and see.

Same. Haven't seen any reason to replace it with OEM. Might get the APR set one day, because red is fast

My dude. What? You're talking about a rabbit hole and turbo upgrades. You'll be like one of five, in the world - maybe the only one - to try and swap a 3.6 in an MQB. That path isn't a rabbit hole, it's a fucking worm hole from Dune.

I still have a full suspension kit sitting in my basement since late last year that I haven’t installed yet. Waiting for the weather to warm is my constant excuse.

Those $100 fill ups these days would be pretty tough to stomach anyway

240mi round trip to southern VA, took this after filling up. Dynoed at 426whp the other day. I was hypermiling the whole time because I wanted to make it back to the cheap gas!

This was taken on the I-90.

I forget exactly where it was but I filled up at the top of a mountain range, and basically coasted all the way down.
