    tdi exhaust ?

    My 09 is getting about 38 mpg currently, completely stock. (wife driven) My best tank is 45, mostly highway. I too have looked at the malone tuning and dpf delete from PDE. The entire package; tune, exhaust, and downpipe (DPF delete) is $1850. That will get rid of everything emissions wise...

    Dallenbach/Banks Pikes Peak testing video

    I heard Gale talk about this project on Adam Carrola's Car Cast. Sounds very interesting. Needs MOAR Duramax!

    Rip Macho Man

    I'll never forget all those great memories of Macho in my youth. In all seriousness, he was one of my favorites. Long live the diving elbow drop from the top rope.

    Foo Fighters

    I saw them a few years ago at the Hard Rock in Vegas. Great show, we were about 10 feet from the stage. Even if you don't really listen to their music it is still an amazing show. Dave is very interactive with the audience.

    Sushi Anyone??

    Sushi is good, all kinds. You just have to be able to get past what it looks like sometimes. Good rule of thumb. If you can smell it, at all. DON'T EAT IT! When I'm going for anything other than the imitation they sell at the grocery stores. I'll eat it in restaurants usually in big...

    TDI Clutch, toast

    :thumb: for the V DUB and :thumb: for the awesome shop. Rotary FTW. It's on my short list of must haves.

    tdi exhaust ?

    You have to remember that most of the people on tdiclub are hippies not diesel enthusiast. I mean the only car worse for hippies is probably the prius. It's funny that on all the diesel truck forums dpf delete is a daily subject but on the tdi forum its like you're talking about raping...

    Farming 101

    I was gonna say 40 s&w when I saw your picture. That's a hell of a lob shot if it truly was from 200 yards. It must have been from a fair distance to only do that amount of damage that it did. From closer the .40 would have made it to the block, so maybe it was a lucky long range hit...

    tdi exhaust ?

    I thought the same thing about my wife's 09. It was always getting around 35 mpg's and I was starting to get bummed out. Then I drove it for a day and put about 350 miles on it. Guess what 47 mpg! :roflmao: The women folk just can't keep their foot out of it. Also, mine has about 23k...

    tdi exhaust ?

    You can straight pipe the CR TDI up to the DPF without codes, but it won't help measurable performance in the least. It will just be louder and not much at that. Same with the aftermarket intakes. No CR TDI has shown any appreciable improvements in performance or mileage after installing an...

    Info: GM to bring back diesel powered car!!!!!

    http://www.autoblog.com/2011/02/21/report-diesel-chevrolet-cruze-confirmed-for-u-s/ Hopefully, this doesn't end up like the much hyped 4.5L Duramax that was to be the savior of the SUV and half-ton market. I'm happy VW finally will have some competition in this market. Competition is good...

    Whats your opinion? Reloader

    My brother-in-law has a dillon 650 and it seems really nice. I thought the 550B would have been plenty for his reloading volume. Anything dillon is going to be pretty much the best and most expensive, but you get what you pay for. I've read some really good and convincing reviews for the...

    Cadillac CTS-V

    What the hell are you doing!? You can't leave a car like that sit out in this shitty weather. Didn't your dad teach you anything boy! If you can't afford a place to put your toys, you can't afford the toy. Get that thing in a heated garage, or I'll come down there and bring it someplace...

    Question: VW 1.9L tdi chip, programmer??

    The 05 Passat is not a 1.9L, it's a 2.0. Tuning for them is extremely hard to come buy since the 2.0 from that generation was only put into the Passat. It's not the same as the current CR 2.0 TDI either. Rocket Chip might have something, or you'll have to go the uber pricey custom tune...

    Truck Gun Lock Boxes?

    That's interesting. At first I thought it might be some Blackwater pics, but those guys wouldn't bother with multiple uppers and 1 lower. They'd have 5 full guns. I agree, with the poor accessibility of those weapons and mags. Might be cool for tools or something else, but defensive...

    SEC Championship

    I'm not a fan of either school and could really give 2 shits who wins but I will say that this BCS game score will likely look more like a basketball game score than a football game. Should be good TV.

    Top 25 Stock Duramax's

    Congrats to Jeff and everyone else on the list. For me personally, this is the true test of a racer. Doing more with less. Anyone can throw money at something until it beats the other guy. It's amazing what can be done with these trucks with just some patience and trial and error.

    Sold my truck FOR REAL! not a joke this time

    Well, it was getting older and I kinda wanted to get rid of it while I could still get $20k out of it. Also, with a 5 month old, it was getting increasingly harder to get him in and out of the back. I would still likely have a truck if it had been a crewcab.
