It's been out of date for a while, my car looks a bit different from the photo, mostly a few things on the future mods list :D . The install was too much and my car isn't running to great at the moment, check out my thread on scaudi.

A lot of people think the same way about the mouldings, I was just making the point that taking away some of the chrome on the B5.5 can be nice too. Eventually I'd like to get rid of all the bling, the badge on the trunk is next. :D

Oh yeah and seriously I'm going to get some new shots up soon, I'm still rolling on the same wheels but there'll be some changes soon pending a local group buy... :hmmm:

Hey Dave,

How about adding pics and info on your Magnaflow setup? Thinking about doing it to my Son's new '01 B5.5 4-Mo Variant. Would love to see the tips and under the car.

Sweet ride!

Yeah I'll get some up, I've been really camera lazy lately but when it was on the lift I got a couple shots.

Uhh, where'd you get the centerlines? 13.5lbs

I did not realize they made our bolt pattern, adapters?
Yes they do indeed make a few wheels in 5x112, funny thing is on the site they only list them as being for an Audi A4, only thing I don't like about them is the et 42. Waiting on some spacers..

What color is your B5.5? I've seen a few other modded passats in the area

Looking good ..

What size are your exhaust tips ?
3.5" double wall Magna flow tips, inside diameter is 2.5" with a 2.25" inlet.

Love the exhaust, any sound clips?:thumbup:
I'm working on that, I have my friends camera right now so I'll get on that. It sounds badass I'm not gonna lie... :D
