I’m going to start this off with I have nothing concrete, all I have is a few handfuls of hope.
So I was at the shop yesterday and there was a sweet looking GLI on the lift with a gorgeous stainless cat back system. Everything from the quality of the material, to the flawless welds, to the shape of the muffler was perfect. When I mentioned that I was told it was a Billy Boat built APR setup. Now, I remember hearing that Billy Boat was near where I currently live, so I asked and googled, and lo and behold, it is literally 5 minutes from my house, and I’ve driven past the building hundreds of times. They have lots of experience with VW/Audi and they are close, so I emailed them(just a few minutes ago) and asked if they’d be willing to build something for me, and that I’d let them have my car to develop on. I told them how the car was available for under $30k and that more and more enthusiasts are buying them and that if anyone could make the v10 sing it would be them!
I don’t know what they’ll say, but it’s worth a shot. I’d like to gauge interest so if and when I talk to them I could possibly put together a group buy, or maybe an AR early adopter discount. I’m just thinking out loud at the moment.
So what are your thoughts? Anything I should bring up, or any other suggestions are welcome!
