Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Hi All,

    Girlfriend and I bought a Mk6 GTI DSG, tornado red, 5dr.

    Looking to do a few mods, have had our fingers burnt with some less than reputable characters so far so looking for better advice.

      Welcome. What mods are you looking to do (performance or looks/handling). Budget?

      Feel free to have a look through my Mk6 GTI diary if you are looking for some ideas. http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...gti-94376.html

        Thanks all.

        So far, have put in an RNS510 and factory reverse camera.... Sadly, the RNS510 is a dud, its a North American unit, and doesn't work correctly.

        Up next, a tune, maybe injectors/downpipe/intake/intercooler... Progress is pretty slow with this stuff in a hectic life!

          The US spec radios are different. You will need to source a RNS510 from Europe.

          No need to touch the injectors on the GTI - they flow plenty.
