Been a mechanic, and a VW guy for most of my life.  For my 49th birthday, I got a 2003 Beetle 1.8t that was some kid's first car...  First car I have had to lift instead of lower...     Started off finding this place because I needed immobilizer codes,... Saw the  the Nefmoto program, and now I am hooked....  They did a auto to manual swap, so now it has an AWW motor from a golf... This morning I flashed it to an AWP...   Rips now....   Smiley    Lookout Sacramento.... Yall about to get gapped by the greenest Beetle you ever seen.....   Ok... Maybe not... Smiley   I have a T4, injectors, and a Front mount to install, then I might have to get stupid.. Smiley   Here's hoping I don't brick everything... Smiley

Anything bigger than stock turbo install rods. I broke a stock rod with a K04 hybrid turbo with a “stock rod safe” tune  Roll Eyes        Welcome to the forum
