not a VW but...
« on: May 22, 2012, 11:43:17 pm »
When Im not driving my caddy, I'm driving my 08 Jeep Grand Cherokee (3L mercedes diesel)

 I was driving home from my friends about 10pm on a friday night, not even thinking about it until I noticed all the guys running their little r'burners light to light.  We were sitting 3 across at a red light, windows down, and I could hear the two next to me cueing up for the next green. 

I brought up the RPMS into the jeeps turbo range... light turned green... when they finally showed up at the next light they both had that look, you know... "wtf?"  yeah guys, your little tuners got smoked by a stock diesel.

Sorry 'bout that.

Sounds awesome, is the Merc engine reliable?  How's she do for acceleration times?  Planning on any light mods, or is there very little to no aftermarket support?  Either way, nice to hear you sowed those ratty little punks what real power is!  ;)
