Kayalami Green 8Y RS3 dropped in recently for the @485designs 3.5" valved exhaust and secondary midpipes.  Incredible fabrication and fitment from these guys - almost a shame to have something so exotic under the vehicle but as you can imagine this 2.5L now sounds incredible. by @apextuning

A 72.088 runtime, good enough for 2nd in class (big congrats to @lol_tires, he pulled half a sec on me by the end), 13th out of 94 in PAX (24th in RAW). Great showing from @jack_lewandowski06 running co-driver with me today, he gained 4.4 seconds on me by the end of his runs, was constantly learning and improving.

Today was all about testing, testing, testing. New tires, figure out the pressures, new APR PCV plate, push that to the limit with the tune, play around with the dampers on the @thunderlane.us TL-One coilovers, alignment is perfect from @beavermarshcalibration. 

We broke the hood release somehow, gotta figure out which coolant flow sensor is bad because it's sending high readings (self-clearing after a restart of the engine) that scared me and my co-driver, broke a wheel stud, but the engine itself is sounding and pushing mighty after a work-up done by our friends at @apextuning

Next up, Time Attack with @ncrscca , then NC Autocross Championship with @ccrscca, and then finally running the @tarheelsportscarclub track weekend in November

A first @sccaofficial National level Time Attack Challenge done and dusted out of my old home track, Pocono Raceway! 6th outta 6 in Tuner 3, but with a tire offset from me and the rest of the runners, there's hope for next time (you gotta bring your absolute A game to these National level events!). Additionally, our mk8 PCV retrofit isn't cutting mustard, so we're going all out and throwing on the APR Plate to keep the oil in the engine and not in the induction

A very special thanks to:

@apextuning for full engine teardown/retune
@thunderlane.us for these awesome TL-One coilovers
@beavermarshcalibration for install/alignment/balance of the car on the new coilovers, every work session was a pleasure and a privilege
@carmedixnc for a coolant line repair! we were about to hit the road and a coolant line went and I drove over to their spot on Hwy 55/54, got seen that morning, out the door by lunch, greatly appreciate yall getting us back on the way!
@ptorbik_photography for the awesome shots!
@tarheelsportscarclub for getting me prepared for this by way of their HPDE and Autocross programs!

For some reason, lost half of the video of the uninstall of the old OEM downpipe out of the #mk7 #gti (didn't miss much) but got the install of the @armmotorsports catted downpipe and proof that stinging ants are already here in NC as they find my juicy legs while I'm trying to work.

Next stop, @apextuning to get the stage 2 flash tomorrow and maybe have them tell me I did the install wrong; I know I should have had someone professional do it, but Sundays are for getting dirty and I needed a reason. by @apextuning

73.2 for my third run at a scorcher Beast of the East with @ncrsolo and @tarheelsportscarclub, enough to take 1st in G Street Touring class and a fun test run after a slew of work done on the #gti from @apextuning. Powertrain performance is there, had a poof of smoke from the PCV, didn't hold the car back much at all, but something we'll want to get cleared up before we head up to Pocono in July for the SCCA Time Attack Challenge. Also need to get those pretty @thunderlane.us coilovers installed, got that scheduled, gotta get the @armmotorsports downpipe put in and have our friends at Apex re-tune to compensate for the freer exhaust
