My wheels and tires! Totally different car, looks and driving. I like the other things I've done, just that these take the cake.

My new wheels and tires!
TSW Interlagos 17x8+35 on Michelin Primacy Super Sports 225/45/17

Love how it drives, quicker acceleration and nice tight handling with the improved grip

Phantom ESC and Open Flash Tablet.


For less than $2k you get a completely transformed car.


And you can install both in less than an hour. Or disinstall them for service visits.

Where's the biggest improvement? Torque dip? Low end?

WC Lathe Werks titanium shift knob hands down!
http://lathewerks.com/shop/product_i...roducts_id=264

It's something that you touch constantly and are always reminded of. I never get tired of that solid metallic feel. It's expensive but worth it, at least in my opinion. The stock shifter is nice, but that fake leather and plastic needed to go!

Yes.


What torque dip?


My car feels like it has the same torque curve as my GTI with 1.8T with 15 pounds of boost. (Flat from 2K RPM to redline)

I don't have alot done to mine...yet so so far it's my exhaust greddy evo 3 catback with an invidia catless midpipe. Sounds so much more aggressive like the looks of the car imply it should. Grabs alot more attention now and none so far from the unwanted kind.
