You might of seen my thread about my blown turbo. I'm almost certain my Garrett GT28RS Turbocharger is blown and looking into possible replacements. This is the specs on this one. It flows nice and was really good for my current setup.
Pros: flows nice, good setup

Volkswagen Jetta
I am entertaining an Optima Yellow Top this time. It's $339, for reference, and I have a feeling it will outlast/outperform the OEM.
Pros: outlast/outperform the OEM

I've decided to install the plugs myself. Given that the vehicle has nothing in the way of a tune, it would seem that the 'standard' heat range plug would be the best fit. APR does not seem to offer a 'standard' heat range plug so they are off the table. The prices for the NGK plugs from the dealer seem reasonable even there challenge is 'which one?' They list a 06K905601B Type 1 and a 06K905601L Type 2. Google searches offer nothing in the way of information about the difference. Is it the heat range? the external construction? the internal construction? the ???. There is a price difference in that the Type 2 is over twice the price of the Type 1 so I am assuming there is some difference, but no specifications to suggest what. To ensure theMuffinMan understands what I am saying ... I am not sensitive to the price difference BUT it is the only factual piece of information I've been able to find, other that part number, to distinguish one from the other. I am stating the difference as a fact and not as part of the selection criteria. Looking at the NGK offerings, they seem to be NGK PLFER7A8EG Laser Platinum or NGK LFER7BHX Ruthenium HX. Any insight would be appreciated.
Pros: standard heat range plug
Cons: Type 2 expensive, unclear difference

Pros: better headlights

Yeah, I've been super happy with the headlights on the 7.5's too. The turn tracking and uphill/downhill movement is nice too.
Pros: happy with headlights

I think I'll just grab a GRAF 30mm unit and compare unless someone has good info on brand quality/fitment.

Our rear rotors are garbage. The front seem fine but i can see rust marks for where my pads rest when i park it for the weekend. Im researching our incredibly limited options on rear rotors at the moment.
Cons: rear rotors are garbage
