I can not quiet tell what that is.. A transmission part? Can you give a bit more detail than a photo? Thanks

Hey Hoon can we get links to where you are purchasing your parts also? Thanks
Rods and pistons will be from pagparts I believe

Doubtful...daily driver man.

Then we can get DSG DIY threads!

If I break a DSG it will definitely force me to reconsider the platform as a whole.

We are definitely in the late mature phase of the MK7 curve.

This is so exciting a build!

I think in the next year or so you will start seeing a lot more people building motors. Hundreds of people hopped on the hybrid train over the last year, and as the miles rack up the bigger turbos and high boost levels will start to take a toll.

I don't care what tune you're running either.

Some of us, just because we get bored. :D I'm at almost 38k on the odometer now. Going to need to borrow a truck to pick up my block. May just do it this weekend.

LOL no. I have a GTi long block that cost me free.99. I just have to go pick it up and see if there's any damage to it. I'm told it was toast, but there's no window so that's a good sign. It'll be built, though.
