I finally had a chance to fit some of the parts that i brought back from the US.
Today i fitted the Raffi knob i bought for the TT. Raffi is a jeweller in the US that hand machines aluminium gear knobs for the TT. He has been
making them for years and the workmanship is second to none! The result is a shorter thicker gear knob that is heavier than the OEM gear knob
resulting in faster and smoother shifts. For more details check out: http://www.autoaesthetics.com/
I opted for the Speed 4 as it is closest looking knob to OEM as i like the OEM+ look for my car more pics can be seen here:
http://www.autoaesthetics.com/....html
As you can see vs the OEM the Raffi is shorter sitting lower and bigger:
Installed!
I also got to install a Forge DV relocation kit as you can see it relocates the DV from the hot side of the turbo to the other side being feed cold
air from the SMIC.
I thought i'd throw in a pic of my son in his Dodgers out fit that brought back from the US too

New brakes finally fitted!
The Porsche-Brembo set up i bought were from 993 Twin Turbo 911. This car had the fastest brakes in the world during the time being able to stop from
100kph to 0 in 2.3 secs!
Got the calipers stripped and painted Silver (red before and looked wrong with the yellow) along with Yellow Brembo script.
Here are some pics:
Really happy with the results and braking power is awesome. They dont have the same sensitivity as the OEM brakes but when you want to stop you really
stop!

That beetle looks awesome, but it was obscured by that stupid yellow hair dressers car parked in the way : ) Don't worry, I'm just a chronic piss
taker. The Dodgers uniform is awesome though. Very cool.
