with the cams youve got as well. do you have anytype of cam specific chip for it yet?

there are mk3 guys with bolt ons and small 264 cams trapping low 100s. running healthy even with a 3.64 FD it should go 103-104

it has a general chip tune, no idea on the make. I plan on ordering a TT 268 tune for it in the near future.

17x8 +20

They’re these wheels:

I’m just taking them apart to refinish and I flipped the faces for shits and gigs.

They can’t be used as shown in that pic because of the way the mating surfaces are machined, the wheel face would never be concentric to the barrel and they would shatter or something sketchy like that.
