Stage 3+ Tiguan build

[Pickles]

Hi Pickles, These are genuine / oem versions - there are two styles.

I imported them from a friend in Germany - they cost me $680 landed (would have been cheaper a few months a go but we lost a lot of ground against the EURO).

I have a spare set available for cars without the side park assist if anyone wants a set (exactly as pictured)

Bugger, I have park assist otherwise I would have been interested

Turbo installation is well underway. Made some specification changes along the way VWR mounts in place also.

So which one did you end up going with?

Now is a good time to replace that front sway bar.

Just make sure you have enough clearance with the tail shaft when you do the install.... speaking from recent experience

Tigger, thanks for the heads up - Already sorted & VWR mounts in the subframe as well!

The mounts will probably help with keeping everything in place. My experience was that the cover on the tailshaft hit the sway bar under accelleration as everyhting is pretty tight under there. Makes an awful racket when it happens...

Oh my. Been a while since I've been on the forum and this pops up. Marvelous effort and fantastic to see some work going into a Tig. A little off topic, but would there per chance be more Tig downpipes in the works following this build?

APR OPS system in place & finished engine bay.

OPS is the oil system similar to what you run in the Cayman isn't it Guy?

Good to see this thing moving along.
Those sway bars look thick as!

Guy,

Is there going to be anything stock in this Tig once you're finished?

Clay - correct! - we are test fitting them to all the AU cars before release. Bars are working well.
