Went to APR HQ today...(lots of pics)
« on: July 30, 2009, 07:49:01 PM »

Went to APR today to get my ecu remapped for the K04.  WOW!!  The best 200 bones I've ever spent...at least in a long time!  Ended up getting the stock, 91, 93, and 100 octane programs.  I'll never use 91, so I think I might give them a call and see how much of a hassle it would be to swap that with the 104 oct file.

Anyway.  While I was waiting, I decided to take some pictures.  Unfortunately I only had my little iPhone 3G s with me.  The dude helping me brought me back to the garage to show me the MK6 GTI VW USA had just given them as a reward for such a nice build/promo at Waterfest.  He was so excited about it.  haha.  It's fun seeing grown men act like little kids in a candy store  ;D  I'm not really a hatch guy, but I really like what they did with the MK6, I like it much better than the MK5.  IMHO

Enjoy!

not a fan of the wheel scheme on the mk6, but it's looking like it will mod very nicely... that rear end shot is money.

Yeah, I forget what the exact numbers were and exactly how much he said the price tag was, but he said they were able to get in the mid 300s w/ hp and tq for a minimal price due to all the mk6 comes pre-equipped with.  Oh yeah, he said that was on stock injectors too.

Methanol!!  8)


Seen several MKVI golfs here in Belgium... I will have to say if I get a new VW ever, it will be the MKVI. It looks so much better in all the areas the MKV fell short on.

Found out this week that I don't start the 3+ month chinook course until mid sept.  So I'm going to be here at least until Christmas.

Because i would love to be able to mod my car, heavily, but finances do not permit, and wont for quite a while.  Seeing sweet cars like that just makes me all melancholy and shit ;-).

LOL, already on that path, just not for car stuff.  You see i have these other expensive hobbies too (drums, home theater equipment, computers), so i'm working on getting those taken care of first.
