    Question Need Help!!

    Ok well heres the deal late yesterday i bought a 2009 VW Passat CC and i pick it up Saturday. I need some help on the setup i should go with on this car. First i will tell you i will be driving 150-200 hwy km a day and where i am there is a big mix of K/KA/Laser. I will tell you the setup i was thinking of and then any inputs you guys might have would be great. I was thinking of going with STi-R for radar and a dual head LI for laser, i really dont want to use veil do you think i will need it? Or do you think an 9500ci + zr4 would be better. Also time is big i want to get what ever it is i go with ordered by tonight. So i am on my way out the door to work i will check back in later.

    Dont be shy any help is good help

    P.S. Heres a link to what my car will look like

    I doubt you would need Veil with that car and an LI. You will probably be JTG without it, but everything helps when lumped all together.

    I love my 9500ci. I don't have to listen to false alerts anymore. But, there are two things different for me than you. I live in an area where K band is hardly used at all, so any potential TrueLock problems are minimal for me. Secondly, you've mentioned you would like to avoid Veil, whereas, I had my Veil professionally applied and think it looks great. Without Veil, the ZR4s are pretty subpar and not all that trustworthy. I run my 9500ci along with my LIs. Run together + Veil, there are no punchthroughs until I decide there are. I like the peace of mind that comes with redundant systems.

    Nice car btw..IMO I would pick the Escort 9500ci for several reasons and one of those is the ramp up is better then the Sti-r unless Bel as fixed this problem. Are radar detectors and laser jammers illegal in your area? If so the Bel STI-r will take care of the problem and maybe the 9500ci will also, maybe someone can pipe in on that and the LI will be more then sufice for your laser protection.

    The rampup is fixed on the STi-R and the 9500ci is as undetectable as the STi-R.

    Ok and there you go...but the Escort comes with 2 smoking hot lesbians that make out while you drive...lol.

    Who has better customer service....Escort or Bel? That is very important also.

    Well since DJ says the Sti-r ramp up is fixed, why not just get a reg. Sti make it stealth and get a LI and save alot of money?

    I'd make sure to test it to be completely sure though.
