Tell me how Killer a deal this is guys, im picking up a TurboXS "Racing Bypass Valve Type 25 (RBV-25)" that usually goes for $169, and im getting it for $60. It was on a friends car... 1.8t passat and he didnt like it so he took it off after only running with it for a hour and decided he wanted to sell it.

Well I installed my TurboXS BPV, and from the difference in power I think the Bosch must have been leaking. Power seems to come on sooner and stronger. I think im going to see if I can get it to a Dyno soon.

To be honest though, the turbo tC 1/8th mile times seem very similar to this.

I'm running a Gates 7PK2265 belt.
I'm going to hold off on the dyno for a bit. I just ordered some new shoes for my baby, coming in @ 15.6lbs per wheel vs. Stock 22lbs, it should make for less of a loss due to drivetrain weight reduction. Gettin some Enkei RPF1 17x8 35 offset.

Thanks man... Just picked up a K&N filter tonight.
But bad news on the wheels... not getting them. Their customer service is crap...they say they will follow up on the transaction but never do... So I decided im going to shop around for other stuff right now.
