Haven't done much to any of my personal vehicles lately so I figured today was as good as any day to install my Diesel Geek Sigma 6 short shift kit on my TDI.

Here is a pic with it installed as I was adjusting it.

I really like it so far. It is a little bit difficult to get into first but it should get better as it breaks in. It is pretty crazy how much shorter the throw is, really notchy too.
 
I haven't done much to my vehicles lately, just general maintenance. I did get my new phone a few days ago, a Galaxy S7 Edge (huge upgrade from my Galaxy S4) and I've had a few people wanting to hear what my TDI sounds like straight piped so I figured I'd make a quick little video. Here she is...

 
Got another truck today.

It is a '92 Dodge Ram W350, Cummins Turbo Diesel, 5 speed manual, 4wd, 180K miles. On the 400+ mile trip home she got over 20mpg which I'm happy with, didn't miss a beat the whole trip either, cruises perfectly at 65mph.

My brother and I both got forced at work (we both had to work another 8 hour shift, we don't find out until about half an hour before our shift is supposed to end) and he found where I parked. :lol:

In other news, my other brother's truck won the championship in his class.

Unfortunately my truck black truck seems to be leaking coolant, when I get some time off I'm going to have to fix that, it should be fairly easy. Other than that, it has been just about perfect, still averaging over 20mpg, too.
