What have you done to your P5 today?

Saw this. A bit pricey, but cheaper than a dealer. If you're interested.

Thanks I found another stock tube for slightly more than that, and the listing says it fits a 1.6L so it may not be the correct one. I am not sure what to get, I know i'm not dropping $300 on a CAI, it would never be worth it on this car. I was going to get a cheap ebay RAI and put a nicer filter on it but I can't find a kit with red couplers. I may end up with another stock tube but I wouldn't mind an upgrade, although i'm not entirely sure an ebay intake would even be an upgrade.

i couldn't get the one bolt out on the passenger side near the shifter to "extend" it down. i got the rear bolt out on the driver's side, but the passenger side seems like it's stripped the threads or something. it just won't come out, it just spins freely, even after trying to jam a screwdriver into it and even trying to pry the heat shield and nothing.

i was thinking of cutting the bolt head off, but even that would still leave the rest of it in there and not able to come out. running out of ideas to try before i jack the car back up and try again as it's a tight fit for my fat arse

and the next time i have the car in the air ill be doing the polyurethane bushings for it as well. then the only thing left is to align the shift knob since i had to get it with the pattern on it for my fianc since she is still learning manual

Yeah i had the same issue, ended up getting my buddy at pepboys to put the car on a lift and used a big ass crow bar to just pry the damn thing out. i'd suggest cutting it though if you cant get your car up high enough for a big ass crow bar lol
 
REUT, love that pic with the logs. Black ur grille emblem and do ur hatch ones with the same wheel color.
