Installed an ECS oil filter housing last weekend, nice little piece, inspires a bit more confidence than the plastic
also installed some BEC Dark Cherry LED Tails and deautokey LED reverse lights, real satisfied with both
RS4…RS4…RS4…RS4
Rolled 50k finally, another 13k of warranty. Thinking it may stick around, just too damn fun even stock. A MT hatch RS3 or MT Golf R400 may make me budge

looks pretty good for 51k. will probably get a new one for when I do plugs/coilpacks at 60k
Thats not bad at all. Is that the same one the A4 guys use.
We got them for crazy cheap:

looks the same, just want to confirm it is? if so I’ll grab a pair and some plugs/coils (recommendations?)
actually, just saw you’ve got a HPFP now, have any customers try one on a Golf R yet?
Yup!
Idk about golf R but plenty of VW guys buy them. It should be the same though, just like the b7 a4 coils.
Grab the FR5DTC plugs!

Not really a mod per se, but this ended up working well
getting near 60K finally. got the following in my cart:

starting to considering hanging onto the car and getting at least a tune.
Just came to say, I still love the look of those SSR’s, but your S4 with it’s meaty tires was the absolute best.
You probably know it, but with the cam follower, it’s a two part inspection. VW has been known to commonly replace the camshaft as well as the cam follower if there were signs of damage. There was an extended service bulletin on the older motors.
Ill trade you my B7 
Thanks man, wish I had the OZ’s still they’d fit the golf better.
And appreciate the heads up on the cam, I looked it over when I checked the follower but I’ll do it again next time.
I wanna figure out an aftermarket intake setup, this stock one is such a pita to work around.
How about I trade you $1000 for a tune and a HPFP? Lol
hmmm… that is something that may be possible…
I’ll reach out come July when I’m shopping.
There’s no real big dog for the R as far as tunes at the moment, UM is generally the favorite but it could be a market to grab.
Yeah we don’t have anything at this time though =[
If you all aren’t opposed to developing a tune remotely I’d be interested.
Bought a used VWR intake off poontex, hopefully throw it on next weekend. Gotta check out my options for data logging in the meantime, don’t have a fancy VCDS (old K2).
