I got some Wiseco pistons for my B6t (bumps compression to 8.5:1, for better lowend and quicker spooling). They are being shipped from CS on Tuesday, hopefully I'll see them by friday. As soon as they come the block is going to the machine shop and getting bored 20 over. The porting and polishing is almost done, then comes the 3 angle.
I'm redoing the I/C pipes in 2.25" and trying some things for shorter piping. I'm going with the Apexi BOV (the cheaper one) and a NX chiller kit. The body is also being treated to alot of weight reduction. Hopefully she'll back on the road soon hittin 12's.
wish me luck.

WOW! Good luck man. That does sound like an impressive build! What turbo are you running?!?! Keep up the good work! You could end up w/the fastest B6 mx-3!!! That'd be cool. Good luck.

I'm still using the VJ-14 for the time being. so yes, in reality I'll probably run 13's, but 12's just sound so nice :)
and fastest B6 i doubt it: Boosted's car will obliterate all if any one gets it and finishes it.
CJ i heard has some tranny issues but should be a contendor. JWmotorsports should also have some very nice times (big turbo; think 300hp+).
I'm just glad we are starting to make a name for the MX-3's.
