Here is my Turbo S, these aren't the most recent pics but I figured I would throw something up here for now.

Mods:

FK Suspension
Freedom Design sway bar end links
Miltek 2.5" Catback
B&B 2.5" Downpipe
HKS filter and ITG air pump filter(My temporary ghetto intake)
Bernt Gauge pod with VDO gauges
Laminex headlight and fog light film in yellow

I will post up newer pics eventually, the yellow fog light film isn't on in these. Winter plans include a turbo and brake upgrade along with some new interior treatment.

Thanks, I wanted a different look, it reminds me of the Lemans cars. Pictures really don't show how well they look, and when I can get the new ones up it looks much better with the fog lights int he same color.

very very nice

Noticed the, i believe, foam air filter-how does nb perform with filter? Did you notice any difference over stock air box.

Thanks, yeah thats an HKS super flow or something. It comes apart and the filter is replaceable, I bought it because it is small and under the filter is an airhorn to help airflow. To be honest there really isn't much gain with any intake on a 1.8T except for a bigger inlet pipe. There is probably increased flow but nothing major, however it does let you hear the turbo and diverter valve more. I bought it for my turbo upgrade next year where I will make a new intake from filter to turbo.

The suspension is a 60/40 kit, and I didn't measure so I don't know how low exactly it went. Its low enough to scrape the front bumper but thats still not low enough

I think the yellow makes it look mean, more people get out of my way going down the highway so it must do something
