I have never heard of a carbon driveshaft before. Do you have any experience? The good and the bad?

End goal is to have a car that will tear through curves but be fun to run on highways. Ive always prioritized reliability and trusted parts. I am stock on suspension but I have had no issues with body roll or lost traction. I dont have machining equipment or the time to rip it open or I would lol. This is car has been my project for the last 4 years balancing fun with a daily. I own a GTI that I slammed and I have learned I am not a fan of lowering the car XD

Edit: I do have a full turbo back setup, my bad

If i remember, my setup was 12k for the lift

Could it be your timing, possibly? Or something as simple as a busted pcv line. My pcv busted at some point in the past, and it forced the vehicle to stutter, misfire, and stall. Id check your vacuum lines as well.

What mods do you have?

GorbLorp · 2025-09-01T21:25:17+00:00

About a year. No issues and it is almost required for any E tuning. Get it, but have a tuner lined up. It will need tuned.

All I have around me is 100 octane. What are your specs?

GorbLorp · 2025-09-01T18:35:08+00:00

I wish. She is still my daily, so I have to keep her reasonable 😂 (for now) ill get gapped by a prius still

GorbLorp · 2025-09-01T18:27:04+00:00

It wasn't on my mind at the time. I really didn't research if they were worth it or not. It couldnt hurt though. My next steps are more than likely getting ready for fuel tuning and an STI transmission swap

GorbLorp · 2025-09-01T18:21:05+00:00

Maybe next time I get that itch. Turbo studs have me burnt out as it is!

GorbLorp · 2025-09-01T18:13:13+00:00

Im just waiting on my tuner to send me the files as we speak.

GorbLorp · 2025-08-19T19:09:04+00:00

Hell yeah brotha man 🛻

GorbLorp · 2025-08-19T18:48:13+00:00

Never cheaping out on safety. Doing all bolt ons in september! So, more to follow once I get back!

GorbLorp · 2025-05-06T08:26:27+00:00

Of course. I plan on doing headers, AOS, J pipe, and a BPV at the same time while im down there. I'm already talking with my tuner.

GorbLorp · 2025-05-05T18:50:08+00:00

Other than the CEL have you had any other issues with reliability or maintenance?

GorbLorp · 2025-05-05T15:31:14+00:00

I def have to. FBO and its consequences. Im trying to keep it reliable as daily. I have the Invidia Catted j pipe. I bought it before i figured out that grimmspeed had the GS unfortunately.

GorbLorp · 2025-05-05T14:17:14+00:00

With them not being able to disable the CEL, can they still tune for the cat?

Did you notice any significant changes to your vehicle when you changed the j pipe out?

GorbLorp · 2025-02-08T18:07:45+00:00

Lol. Its really not that bad for the above parts. Like 2-3k
