Was a nice day today. So I decided to go for a fun little spirited drive in my full bolt-on Stage 2 VII GTI.
Enjoying the last little bit of my IS20 before I put in my Shuenk IS38+ turbo. Aiming to have it in & tuned within the next week to two weeks.
Will be going with APR's Stage 3 IS38 High Torque 91 tune for now. Have plans to switch over to IE's Stage 2+ IS38 tune later on and get a JB4 so I can stack Map6 to run Ethanol.
Current modlist is below.
