DUBBIN' HAWAIIAN STYLE!

2008 United Grey GTI w/ DSG. Purchased March 3, 2008 with 25 miles on the speedo. Immediately after talking with and riding in another local dubber's GTI, I knew what mods I needed to do within a week of having my MKV. I think I am almost pau (finished) with my small mods. Long term goal is to upgrade the stock turbo. That's right, I didn't say big turbo, just looking to get the Audi's S3 KO4 so I can get to at least 300 whp. In the end, I want to make this a quick daily driver and a "sleeper " car. If I wanted fast , I would've just bought the STI or EVO with a higher car note.

nice, love the eruo rep over there. Wish I had that big of a crowd around base here by base. People seem to just get a Dub cuz it is stylish and gas savers, not for the fact that the VAG is one of the best car groups around. They are right under lambo, but those italians really know design ;)
