Air Lift Performance Golf MK5 /6, Passat CC and TT MK2 2WD Slam Series kit

Imagine a suspension system that allows a super-low stance, track-tuned handling and raised ground clearance–at the push of a button–for everyday driving. It sounds too good to be true, doesn’t it? Welcome to the reality that is Air Lift Performance…

This high-performance, Slam Series kit was specifically designed for the Volkswagen MK5/6 Golf platform, which gives you the ability to adjust the ride height even while on the move. At the touch of a button, you can lower your VW up to 5.8 inches on the front and rear axles. The result is a car that not only looks incredible, but also boasts a significantly improved suspension performance with the ability to maintain total practicality on the street.

Put simply, coilover suspensions cannot compete with the versatility of Air Lift Performance’s setups. This kit will get your vehicle lower than any coil suspension, while still providing crisp handling and a smooth ride. Both the front and rear kits use double-bellow air springs. In order to achieve the lowest drop possible, the Air Lift Performance bags compress to an amazingly slim 2.3 inches, allowing even the biggest wheels to tuck hard (as long as they clear the fenders).

Air Lift Performance torture-tests each component on our hydraulic rig for over one million cycles, simulating around 100,000 real-world miles. Anyone with the skills to wire a stereo and swap suspension components can have their car on the ground in only a matter of hours. Basic hand tools are the only things necessary to complete the job.

The Volkswagen MK5/6 2WD Slam Series kit is available with a range of Air Lift Performance management options, including their innovative 3H™ height + pressure sensing system. Air Lift Performance used a state-of-the-art 32-bit processor, advanced height + pressure algorithms and a full color controller, complete with built in Bluetooth connectivity to make 3H the most advanced air management system on the market.

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.

Macau Gets Messy with 16-Car Pileup

The Macau Grand Prix is always good for an accident or two or 16— you may remember Audi’s race ending crash last year —and this year’s event didn’t disappoint. It didn’t take long for things to get messy on the tight road circuit. On the opening lap of the qualifying race a 16-car pileup caused the race to be suspended. Things kicked off when Daniel Juncadella hit a wall on the exit of Police bend, one of the tightest parts of the already tight circuit. The following car of Raffaele Marciello was able to avoid the carnage, but Laurens Vanthoor, who was in the upside-down Audi that ended the race last year, could not avoid Juncadella and together they blocked up the road pretty much completely. “I couldn’t see him [Juncadella] at first. Then I saw the car standing still,” Vanthoor told Motorsport. “I tried to brake but it was just understeering and I couldn’t do anything. There’s room for one car there and you’re blind.” Fourteen more cars would eventually crash into the corner c

The First of its Kind: Integrated Engineering Releases Highly-Anticipated IE450T MK6 Golf R Turbo Kit

After two long years of development, the team at Integrated Engineering has finally announced the release of their IE450T kit for the MK6 Golf R. With their turbo kit bolted on right out of the box, the sport AWD hatch is transformed into a 450bhp monster, with hardly any noticeable increase in spool time. In fact, 435 ft-lbs of torque are achieved at all four wheels, at a mere 3300rpm! By now you are probably asking yourself how this is even possible on a 2.0L engine that made nearly half that power from the factory. By employing true twin-scroll technology into the cast turbo manifold and pairing it with a state-of-the-art BorgWarner EFR turbocharger, IE was able to keep spool time at a minimum and bring the fastest-spooling big turbo setup to the market. “We wanted to offer a kit that would dramatically increase the power output without making the car lose its amazing street-friendly drivability,” mentioned one of the IE engineers. We are told the IE450T leaves the car driving jus
