Yea well stinks that the trial is only for 6 hours bc I haven't driven it at it's full potential lol
It's 6 hours of drive time.... most people only driver their car for about 30 minutes a day.

Any plans for revisions to the k04 map? Not that I have any issues except no traction which I'll fix eventually =)
No not really.. the turbo is pretty maxed out at redline. Not really sure how we'd go higher.
I'm considering picking up a MK6 GTI and I will immediately want to install some APR goodies; Stage I ECU at a minimum, possibly more.
Unfortunately we don't seem to have any APR dealers here in Oklahoma City, which means I'll need to head out of town for the install. Can anyone recommend a dealer between here and Dallas/Arlington? Here are the dealers closest to me according to the APR site. Anyone have experience (good or bad) with any of these guys?
Speedsportz in Tulsa, OK: Their web site is dated and doesn't say anything about VW or APR.
Eurosport Automotive in Plano, TX.
Import Car Center in Grapevine, TX.
Dub Squared in Arlington, TX.
I'd greatly appreciate any recommendations, endorsements, or cautionary tales. Thanks!
I can speak personally for and solidly endorse DubSquared.. Great guys, nice/clean shop, a few framed magazines that their project cars have been in, all around a solid place to get APR or any other work done for that matter.
I know lots of people that use Eurosport, though can't say much for Import Car Center. I'd hit NTAG (North Texas Audi Group) forums and see what people have said about them there. :w00t:
If I wanted to start off on my MK6 with just the CAI, is there anything I need to buy besides that?
Might Stage 1 chip it later in the summer if I start working...
The Carbonio intake is one of the quietest intakes I've ever heard (or not heard, for that matter) - I love it, because the performance is there but the crazy loudness isn't. Arin, can you comment - does the plastic and CF have some "warm up"/break-in time, I've got some smell coming out of the engine bay at times and others have noted the same thing on here, is that normal?
