ive got a t5 manual with slight shaved head, i only want it just noticeable and with miner mods to do to the ecu, the mechanical side of it is easy, but when you ask a shop attendant they either feed you crap, or they try to rip you off with the wrong product, thats why im asking in here, feel like i can trust you guys.
