Designed and manufactured in the USA using the most current design methods and materials, ECS Performance Drivetrain Mounts use a perfected polyurethane formula to deliver smooth power transfer through the driveline to the ground while minimizing chassis feedback. The custom-machined Pendulum mount is a highlight of this latest ECS release. All-weather seals capture a teflon-lined spherical bearing that replaces the poorly designed factory bushing, eliminating front bushing deflection and premature failure. Select from a range of kits to suit your driving preferences.

The belly pans provided for modern Volkswagens have always appeared to be under-engineered, out of place, cost-cutting parts.

ECS has a much more sensible solution – The Street Shield Skid Plate features corrosion resistant, air-ventilated, 5052 lightweight aluminum, with all hardware, offering complete engine undercarriage protection.

How is Malone Tuning for your VW different than other offerings on the market? Malone tunes are not generic "tuning box" upgrades - a less effective method that often skews OBD2 data causing inaccurate injection and boost data. Malone custom tunes allow for the fine adjustment of boost pressure and fuel supply according to specific RPM points. The result is control over boost spikes, boost creep, and smoke levels. "This tune will make you smile the first time you get on it. This truly is a night-and-day difference from stock." — Customer Review
