Amulet TT coupe, FL plates in MA w/ "NEVR FOLOW" front euro plate... thanks for the thumbs up...
Anyone know this owner? I'm never quite sure what reactions I'll get from Audi owners while I'm driving my Golf (which intentionally looks stock, though it has some gusto), but I was quite pleased to get a thumbs up from this TT driver. Happy motoring!
BTW, here's my Golf (4dr 1.8T):

And here's "before" and "during" dyno results from EPL after putting in and tuning a GT28R. Tuning has progressed since then, so I'll get it back on the dyno sometime soon for a new curve.:

That was me! I noticed the exhaust, 17" wheels >>>
I was all psyched when I got to work this morning...if I hadn't gone 120 mph this morning I would have been pissed off because of traffic :-)

nice "meeting" you. I went with the turn-down-tip exhaust to try to keep it stealthy...
but it's still shiny so does give itself away. The wheels are 17" OEM VW wheels, which I actually bought after selling the BBS (16") wheels that came with the car, again for my desire to keep it OEM-looking.
Do you have a chip in there? Seemed to move quite nicely.<ul><li><a href="http://ctny.audiworld.com/mark/golf/">http://ctny.audiworld.com/mark/golf/</a</li></ul>

nah, it was the open road after the traffic
there was no weaving, lane changes, etc. When cars finally moved out of the way after going slow-ish for many many miles, it was clear road ahead, so we gave a little pressure to the right foot, enjoying the open-ness

that was 4th, I put in a taller 5th (more like a 6th) for cruising....
I let off somewhere in the middle so I could just coast up to the next batch of traffic without having to get on the brakes. I'd love to compare side by side some other time - what chip do you have? 225, I assume?

Yeah it's a 225...I have revo Stg 1, burying my 25 psi >>>
boost gauge right now (I think I'm hitting 26-27), I have to lower the boost a little, my DV isn't holding it too well, I think it may be time for a new one.

Also...what tranny did you take your 5th out of? My friend is always >>>
complaining that his Jetta's 5th gear is too short, and I'm sure he'll be looking for projects this winter (in addition to his big turbo of course)

I think it was from a TDI - the P/Ns are on my website....
I changed from the solid yellow line to the dotted yellow:
