EXCLUSIVE: Owning a dub just makes you feel different!!!!

Owning two models of the VW Passat just made me feel the high input they made in the design and power of the car. Since I like cars, some modifications were next on the list...
First on the list was to get the car down! I always used FK coild and this time I went on the HIGHSPORT instead of SPORT, and I can asure you that with the VW design the car retained her driving ability while it was lowered to the max with 19" 0.01 3SDM alloys, with concave rear alloys with 9.5".
Stability was improved so next on the list was a visit to the master of diesel tuning, Piranha Tuning, who installed a custom map (Stage |||), deleting all the restrictions. The output with the VW DSG gear box was amazing as you can see here: http://vimeo.com/77352729 .

I was never into this type of tuning but I'm amazed how a simple map can change the output of the car with all OEM hardware. But again, we do not have where to enjoy our favourite hobby, as I do not like to go  fast on the streets as it is not fair for others. It is just a matter of taste and I can assure you that this Passat CC fulfilled mine!

It's a Dub thing you would not understand!
