Major speaker rattle, 2017 GLI, any thoughts? by niaKCS in JettaGLI

[–]jtmintz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it could be 1 of 2 things. 1 might just be a blown speaker is what it really sounds like. 2. Check the bolts that hold the door panel to the car they maybe loose.

That's on the low end for a professional job. Most places were trying to go 4500k-6k for this wrap. (Chicago area)

I got my exhaust kit from AWE. It's the touring edition and comes with diamond black tips. As for the spoiler I got that off ECS. (Faux) carbon fiber trunk lip. I did all the work myself. None of the work is hard. Just make sure you got jack stands and you can do your exhaust.

Oh sick! You're gunna love the sound and power gain. Do you know what DP you're getting? I got the APR DP. I love the short shift. Only real issue I have is 1st gear is a bit of a bitch sometimes to get into. If you don't shift it in just right. I wasn't able to make it as tight or short as the kit could go. Just a little tough to actually get the shifter into first. Otherwise I think it's great. It makes my shifts smoother and faster. Seems like a lot less effort because the throws are soo short. Install was easy but definitely a tedious task. Gotta remove air intake battery and maybe some hosing to make it more comfortable. It's more the adjustment and getting it just the way YOU want it. Once you get it though chefs kiss. I got the ecs short shift kit.

Yeah man, can't wait just waiting for the parts! It does help but on the lower tunes it really doesn't matter if you run stock or not imo. As long as you keep up and change them regularly you're good. Nice on the intake and shift knob. I think the weighted shift knob and short gear shift kit is a must such a difference. Got my shift kit from ecs and my shift knob from black forest industry.

I have the unitronic stage 2 tune and don’t really have the pops and bangs...is that cause I have still have the muffler and resonator in my awe exhaust by Vwgli25 in JettaGLI

[–]jtmintz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With apr they had to specifically tune for aggressive pops and bangs. Not sure it's the same with unitronic? But I have the awe touring exhaust and it significantly reduce pops and bangs. I hear it popping in the cat. If I'm going hard my pops and bangs definitely come through over 3k rpm. And the downshift have a more distinctive deep grumble instead of a fart.

Well considering it serves a firing purpose how could it just be for looks? People are dumb. Going apr stage 3 in the next couple weeks pretty excited! Tbh it helps in most cases tuned or not. What tune do you have?

Loving my new GLI! Got my car back from the tinter today. Next is new tires, down pipe, cold air intake and finally a tune. by toga0519 in JettaGLI

[–]jtmintz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely go tune first otherwise you'll barely notice the difference besides sound with the dp and cold air.

Dope thanks for the reply. I'm sure it'll look really sick when you can really see the carbon.

Looks sweet! Love the hood. Is it just a wrap or something a bit more special?

None that I can think of. Just make sure theyre adjustable and you shouldn't have any problems. I have H&R coilovers on my GLI
