    opinion on getting taller 5th gear in awd tranny

    Gentlemen and ladies... I ahve always wished my tsi awd had a 6th gear because of freeway cruise rpm (about 3k-3500).I saw that TRE does offer a taller 5th option of 10% and of 25% which would you go with as that 5th gear is a cruising gear? (they call it top speed)I have noticed that...

    Muse Motorsports MBC warning

    FYI:This item, though very nicely constructed, turns out to be an ajustable bleeder valve MBC, not a ball spring MBC. The "ball spring part" is in the boost Tee. In otherwords it's a check valve/non adjsutable MBC with a piggly back bleeder for raising boost. Wouldn't be a huge problem...

    Clutch pedal issue- please help

    I think you are refering to the shift fork boot... no biggie, I don't even have the lower piece that covers the flywheel in place. When one day your clutch dies a natural death, you are going to want to replace the fork and pivot ball, and you can replace the boot at that same time.

    the other part of the weight you can not remove IMO. at least not without enough work that you'd be better off adjusting the intake. it moves up and down not just rotates, it's part of the tranny.Let me guess... FP 4" intake? Or something similar with an offset coupler? Your offset...

    Idea for MIVEC on 2G

    It's funny to me how someone with no experience asks if something is possible, and is told it is not feasable and why is then too dense to agree, drop it, and not look a fool. Instead this person keeps arguing about how nothing else matters except mivec. Never mind port size and shape, valve...

    Wheel Guru's: Help me find a rim (specifics inside)

    I'd pick 17's simply because of tire selection being wider and cheaper in the 17" sizing, as well as the obvious weight benefits, and the additional sidewall will better protect the rim from unavoidable potholes

    Opinions on wheel/tire set up

    225/45/17 is the exact match for OEM 205/55/16... the old -10 +10 doesn't work with low profile tires.http://www.dakota-truck.net/TIRECALC/tirecalc.html

    Wheel Guru's: Help me find a rim (specifics inside)

    correction, that's a 17x7.5 and they come in 16x7 or 17x7.5... look at the rim!they must be pretty heavy when their "lightweight wheel" LIte-7 weighs 18.3 lbs in a 17x7 size.

    How hard is it?

    The boots don't hold the fluid in... the seals do. You probably got dust and dirt in there B/c of the ripped boots and that ate the seals.You should just get the rack rebuilt, or scrounge one off another car..
