i dont know....i liked the look of these wheels. i seen a simular set on a VW a while back and thought that they would look cool on my Monty (its Montana Green...a "Monty") and i came across a set so i bought them... im more conserned with traction over some "sexy" streched tires and big lips...

the headlights are standard Hella H4 housings with a clear stone gaurd protector and OEM yellow H4 light bulbs, the centers are standard US spec OEM lights and bulbs (55w) with yellow stone gaurds....

it hasnt hit boost yet, havent driven it... the wastegate is set at .6bar, but i plan on running 15-18psi on this motor for a while. hope that will get me 300whp. but when the time comes and a motor is built we will go to the dyno and find out how much hp this setup is accually good for one of the hardcore VW forums says that the engine setup the way it is will be good for 250whp 300whp maybe. but someone made 443whp on the same setup as me but with 16v pistons and GT35R at like 35psi. i dont see how my 8v pistons could be that much weaker, they still both came from NA motors...but we will see...

what was that guys setup?
