Ordering AWE Cold Front in a few weeks and trying to decide on wheels. So far I’m LOVING the car and the Eurocode upgrades!
AWE cold front is a great product name.
Pete, Very nice! Any comparisons at this point to the old car? Probably need to wait for the fall to get some good numbers but just curious on what the good old butt dyno is telling you? Enjoy the car!
Not sure why, but the single cab Dodge truck with tonneau cover and wing makes me laugh.
“I am going to buy a truck that can’t hold or haul anything”
You should see him drive…
Overall the 13’ IMO is a huge upgrade over my old car. That could be partly because of the miles, no sports diff, etc…
The MMI 3G+ blows the old system out of the water. Much more intuitive, Bluetooth Audio is awesome and I love the google earth.
The steering wheel, pedals and touch points are all refined and so classy.
Also a lot of little changes on suspension components, belly pan and covers that I found wrong with the other car.
The EC suspesnion and shifter are AMAZING. I wish I did these mods before hand.
ECU will be re-installed tomorrow so i’ll give my opinions on the tune tomorrow.
What I don’t like is the redline is like 6800 stock. Also gearing seems shorter but that could be the extra 600rpm that I had on the old car plus I need 255’s. 4th redline is 123 right now. On 255’s and 7400 redline my last car hit 133.
Car looks great, Pete. Also interested in comparisons with the B8.
Edit: you beat me to it.
congratz on the car man it looks bitchin. All my friends have B8.5’s and when I drive them the upgraded steering wheel is by far my favorite part, that thing feels so bitchin. I swear on the track that damn steering wheel helps with the handling of the car.
Hey bro, car looks great! And major props for the quick modding! Have you un-checked DSR in electric steering module yet? If not, you really need to, makes a BIG difference in the steering and handling characteristics. Looking forward to seeing what you can do with your B8.5!
My steering has never had a problem.
Only fuck with it if you start to experience the issues.
You’re one the few I know who haven’t. And frankly, you actually may HAVE the issue and not know it?
Seriously though, the DSR function in the Elecrtric Steering Assist module serves NO meaningful purpose except to “potentially” make your steering feel like ass. Uncheck that crap, trust me on this one
I know I don’t have it, I’ve driven other people’s cars that do.
My steering is rock solid and perfect since day 1
My RS America doesn’t have this problem either, it has no assisted steering at all! Lol
