yep, this was done by a shop in maryland but i know very little about that story. i wish i knew more, but i don't even know which shop it was. maybe more info will turn up in time.

i love the power in this thing. my previous daily driver was a mk3 gti vr6, but this feels quicker by some. it's not the fastest car in town or anything, but it makes it very fun to drive. i'm needing to replace a passenger inner tie rod (i think) but i already gave it a good workout on the twisties here in illinois. it handles pretty well with the fk suspension but it could probably use a bigger sway bar.

maybe i'll shoot a video of it or something because the vr is my favorite sound. i need one of those headrest camera mounts!
