Should be wrapped up with these in the next couple weeks. Additionally, I've moved away from the OE oil...

    Did some custom aluminum paneling to line the glovebox and located the fusebox and data logger for the EMU Black inside.

    Starting the cornsilk beige to titan black conversion. Began with a new set of Recaro Sportster CS in black leather. I'm using Recaro sliders and Planted brackets for mounting. Then I tackled the lower dash pieces and center console. Hope to get the door panels and lower trim done tonight.

    Thanks to Junior at Jaaatt Engineering in the UK, I've been able to get this bespoke part completed. This one-off design allows the 2.5 throttle body to mate perfectly to the TTRS/RS3 plenum, while allowing proper clearance to the new MAP sensor location. Why not just run the TTRS/RSE throttle...
