Wow. Not a VW guy so I've never really seen a Tiguan done up like this. I like it. How much boost does it run stock??? Is it adjustable?

stock peaks around 10-12 then settles at 6-7. With the stage 2 it should peak around 17ish but I won't have an exact figure until my downpipe is on because I'm running on the stock program until I get it.

It's not adjustable, only changes based on the tune you run

Whew... car looks nice, Java.

Almost makes me miss German engineering. Must be fast as hell.

I'm sure you miss the power of the L15A

Looks good, keep up the progress.

You have a build thread on a vw forum dude? I wanna read through it. Dad bought a GTI about a month after I got my CRZ so I've kinda been into the VW's lately.

Yeah here it is, it needs to be fully updated once the downpipe is on but stay tuned

I was looking at 2012 VW GTI before I got my Fit. Our problem up here is we have only one dealer who had a bad reputation on customer service. Finally the Toyota dealer we usually deal with brought it out in 2012. So I went down to get a price quote since my wife got a 2012 Toyota Camry XLE fully loaded and they gave her $3k off the sticker. The GTI only about $1,000 off sticker I still wanted to buy it the only thing that stop me was the MPG. I hoping they eventually bring the GTD to the US.

VW is really selling of lot of the new Tiguan I see quite a few of the new models on the road. Good luck with your new vehicle.

I like this blue Fit... looks nice..
I think it would get a better look if you use lowering kit or coilovers

Well he doesn't have the car anymore so that probably won't be happening.
