I thought it was Eminem from Rap God at first but when I zoomed in I knew it wasn’t him but didn’t know who it was. Now I know where it came from.

Nevermind what I just said... I double checked parts numbers and the original place I checked was incorrect.

Wait no, maybe I'm not incorrect... I'm finding some odd conflicting information. When I search for Volkswagen CC intercooler part as shown on ECS the number it doesn't match the Golf R part number. But when I search for the Golf R part number on Google I'm finding listings on ebay with that part number stating it's for the CC, with the pictures showing the correct connection type. I'm also finding listings on Amazon and VW Parts sites listing the CC as being compatible.

To make this clear...
I'm 95% sure the 2008 to 2012 CC got the GTI intercooler, and the 2013 to 2017 CC got the Golf R intercooler.
...hence my confusion. Some aftermarket sites treat the entire CC run as a single generation, so when I was poking around I must have only looked at the early CC intercooler listing and either missed the other one or it just wasn't there.

I need some help here. I'm going to be just getting a new set of suspension since mine is all seized up. I'm torn between PSS 10s and Ohlins. Obviously Ohlins are the better choice here, but is there enough difference to justify the extra $500? I'm leaning towards the ohlins, just wanted others opinions.

Just buy my setup I'm selling. Vwr springs on koni orange. Top hats already installed.

I had the Ohlins Road & Track installed a while back along with the Superpro control arms. It handles like a go cart.
I can’t compare it to anything but the stock suspension, but I have had a shit eating grin for months on end.

I'm trying to have this be the last suspension upgrade I need so I wanted something that I wouldn't be able to out drive after some experience.
Welp, looks like i'm getting ohlins

What Would Glenn Danzig Do
Don't overlook eibach multipro r2's. They arent widely known because they have remote reservoirs which scare people but it makes adjustments super easy.
What camber plates are you going to get?

No idea, any recommendations?

I have considered these for a few years but am still on the fence about them. Wanted to have my seatbelts dyed red and was gonna do it when I did that.

I have gone back and forth on those too.
Seatbelts, you might as well just get an aftermarket replacement, dyeing will be more trouble than its worth

I'm waiting on SafetyRestore to send mine back. They go in next week.
If you use that company makes it easier
I found that company a while ago but have not tried them so I’m curious how it will turn out.
