QFT. I’m not too fond of ATP’s 1.8T stuff myself. Nor their Evo stuff, nor their 2.0fsi stuff. Trend happening here?

Why not just drive the Jetta to and from work/school like a normal person instead of wasting money on parts you don’t need. Weren’t you just bitching about getting laid off and not having enough money?

PRIORITIES BOBBY, PRIORITIES.

For example, I make it a priority to drive past your house honking my horn before driving to my house and parking my car for the night.

Please don’t get butthurt over this like 350Z boy does when I “make fun of him” lol

ATP is ok for the price I have sold several of the kits. They are mostly affordable. Sometimes they forget pieces. But they are a lot less then some of the quality APR kits and such.
