The kit is 425hp because that's all the stock DSG clutches can handle.
Stock is 250hp and on the dyno I got 211whp.
So.. around 20% drivetrain loss puts me at about 350whp.

That combined with stock wheels at 30lb going to my Volks at about 19lb will be a great improvement as well.

Yes, I'm building it as a functional daily driver. My xB wasn't in the least bit functional, this car will be. It will drive great on the street as well as the track. I am going to Socal next thursday, a big R32 meet saturday and a track day sunday. should be a lot of fun.

My CF engine cover was getting a bit yellow and a few cracks just on top and along the front side so I thought I would experiment a bit. What do you think?

Thanks guys. I really didn't want to just toss it so now I can use it for another year or so maybe and alot cheaper than buying a new one.

Yep that was the hardest part just spray a little soapie water slide them around til they are where you want them, but it's a pain to get them stright. Installed it today this is how it ties in.

Now I need a redtop battery. :D I going to order some Anzo dual halo headlights and HID's gonna be a week or so to get them should I go 12000k or 8000K?. I was thinking the 12000K would look good with the BCM. Ideas?
