Mine too....must be some sort of shared hallucination...

Double the torque would be so addictive. You'd want to get an RS4 brake upgrade or similar with that sort of extra oomph

[Passat R36]

Too much work and too much money
New DSG box required as well?

[kamold]

Yeah the kit includes upgraded DSG clutches.
Would cost more than the car is worth these days no doubt.
Worth drooling over though

I was checking on B7 fitmet however here are the details. Too pricey.

Oh is that all, I'll probably get a twin turbo kit then!

Wonder if they've sold any of them?

Group Buy!!!!

I am looking at the numbers, if you are going all out at $34,900 then why not another $900 to get an additional power/torque increase.. wierd.

[kamold]

Yeah for sure....if you have that much cash and you're doing something totally crazy to a car, why not go all the way??

I'm in for the group buy. If there are enough of us do you reckon we can get it down to $3590 each?

[Passat R36]

I am in, for $3590.

[Domatron]

I think I'll stick to the smaller mods for now...

$3590 and if it it fits B7 LOL.

[Jakeys]

I'd gladly spend $3590 on this group buy hahaha.

Nobody has done it yet because the pricing is obscene. You could spend the money this kit costs on a completely different car and get more power for your buck that way. You'd have to be mad to do this. Even at $10k I reckon you are pushing it a bit on value just because the car is only worth maybe $25k average for good examples and this increases risk of mechanical problems, won't help your resale, and you'd be **** out of luck too if it breaks in the future you'd be well and truly on your own since nobody has done it.

[Mysticality]

Is this not the kit that's on AP's R36 TT Golf from VAGTUNING?

[xR360]

I'm in for the groupie (purchase that is) [emoji1360]
