Blame it on our long warranties. Personally, I'd rather have the warranty.

So your saying HPA will not be offering this reversal to anyone else?

Default HP Limits of DSG

What happened to the DSG being rated for a certain amount of HP? With that turbo kit, I'm sure you have surpassed that threshold right?

Default If they do, it will probably be pricey...

Marcel needs to figure out whether it makes sense to create a product or conversion kit, depending on the cost and potential market.. but as of right now it seems like a complex and expensive conversion.

Default No way it will be worth the time and effort IMO - maybe a few people would opt for it

but not enough to put a kit together for sale to the public.

Default It all depends! if you have the option to buy a "Euro" version

with more HP and less warranty some of us would. This is not my primary vehicle so I would forego the long warranty for more HP and options.

Default Thanks for the great info, Marc.......

too bad there's no happy ending for the LC. There's a class action suit going on against Verizon for disabling bluetooth features on some of their phones. Would be nice to do the same here, since most of us who have 3.2's bought them before the disabling was publicized. As we know, the LC is actually described in the owner's manual, with a separate page slipped in at delivery to let you know you didn't get what you paid for.
