Leave it to ECS to accept the challenge by providing brilliant designs from Forge, CTS, Euro Sport, and Neuspeed. Significant HP gains have been reported due to the substantial drop in intake temperatures. Additionally, a cooler running engine better resists heat expansion and stress, increasing the longevity of your powerplant

Grabbing gears in your VW should be an engaging and exciting part of your driving experience. Unfortunately, little attention was paid to the design of your factory paddle shift levers; the OEM plastic units do very little to inspire quick downshifts and well-timed upshifts. Bring a much-needed design upgrade to your VW with S2T Paddle Shifter Sets. The larger size and aluminum/titanium construction was inspired by supercar paddle designs & are available in three styles. S2T Performance Paddle Shifters are complete replacements for your OEM paddles, guaranteeing perfect fitment.

Bringing your VW VR6 12v engine output to the next level? The wisest enthusiasts build their drivetrain to match powertrain advances - and the best place to start is with the clutch and flywheel.

The ECS Stage 3 Clutch Kit includes a slim 15.5 lb steel flywheel, pressure plate, ring gear, disc, all hardware, and a clutch pilot tool to spline it all together. South Bend Stage 4 Extreme Clutch Kits will take you all the way to 525+ ft/lbs of torque.

Ready to blow off a little steam? Get Forge under your hood. Stock diverter valves just can't handle performance upgrades. Add a little boost and they get all weak in the knees and go to pieces. Forge knows this. That's why they've engineered boost-hardy blow off and diverter valves tough enough to take the pressure without blowing their lids. Aluminum housing. Faster Response. Works and plays well with engine management systems.

Forget that Final Frontier stuff, most of the time, you're more concerned with Inner Space--as in where to store your stuff. Glove boxes and door pockets fill quickly with gloves, glasses, and those movie rentals you've been meaning to return for a month. What you need is more storage. That's where VW seat tray kits come to the rescue. Available for driver and passenger side front seats, these neutral black sliding storage trays come as a complete kit with everything you need to install them. Check out our video with step-by-step instructions for this fun project.

A revered name in the performance aftermarket industry, Integrated Engineering now offers a series of outstanding engine internal, fuel system, & air induction parts for the MK4 Jetta/GLI 1.8T. The stunning appearance gives hint to the outstanding craftsmanship that is characteristic of every Integrated release. The IE Crankshaft Girdle keeps your engine block from flexing under extreme torque. Integrated forged engine internal components are good for 800+hp engine builds.

Stock diverter valves just can't handle real performance upgrades. Additional boost levels extend the factory limits of operation and can blow the diaphragm to pieces. Forge Motorsports recognized this dilemma. That's why they've engineered boost-hardy diverter valves & BOVs tough enough to take the pressure without blowing their lids. These units utilize completely serviceable valves with an aluminum piston and o-ring seal - compared to the easily-torn rubber diaphragm found in the OEM valve.

Designed and manufactured in the USA using the most current design methods and materials, ECS Performance Drivetrain Mounts utilize 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.

How is Malone Tuning for your VW B5 Passat TDI 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. Gains up to 40 hp and 68 lb-ft of torque are possible depending on the chosen tune stage and existing modifications.

Spacers for your racer. ECS Tuning lets you tweak your stance - or swagger down the road with a 20mm monster offset. Engineered and tested in-house to fit your VW perfectly. Choose from our huge inventory of hub centric spacers in thicknesses sure to match your car, your wheels, and your shopping budget. All ECS VW 5x112 spacers are aluminum, and are black anodized for corrosion protection. Kits come with correct-length black lug bolts for a complete package.

Most new performance cars could use a more athletic, performance-purposed wheel fitment. Not only does widening a car's track width decrease body roll through turns & make better use of available grip, but the new uninterrupted line from the wheel arch to the tire makes for a cleaner rear & front profile. ECS Flush Kits include the most cleverly engineered, highest quality spacers available, specifically matched to your R32's styling and performance needs.

The art of achieving the ideal wheel fitment usually entails extensive research, trial and error, and the occasional costly mistake along the way. Suspension adjustments and wheel offset alterations can be highly challenging to match correctly, especially when that perfect look is the ultimate goal. The simplest and most effective solution comes from ECS Tuning in the form of the clever StanceEnhance options - a pre-assembled, ideal combination of springs and spacers that guarantee not only that ideal stance but also a pleasant improvement in handling dynamics and road-holding.
