Hello everyone!
Just thought I would pop in and say hello. Long time VW owner.... well 8 years and counting. I currently have a Mk3 1.8T, which is more of a lost motivation one for me, so I have had to take a break from it and now have a B5.5 TDI, which i adore. I have already, under my one year of use (mid-July '12, purchased) I have removed the automatic gearbox that plagues all North American B5.5 Passats with a unit imported from Czech Republic, flashed the ECU for a bit more power, and have just recently installed coilovers and a set of wheels.
Here is a before...
And an after from a very recent car show...
I am on the lookout for some bespoke Euro/UK market parts... I will be happy to help those of you looking for North American parts!! Shoot me a message if you can help me find some more parts! Thanks all!
