With over 300,000 sq ft of building Empi is the largest VW parts supplier with over 15 million parts now the shelf in the USA hands down! I was blown away when we did a warehouse tour and saw the R&D that goes down here and the continued efforts to make better top quality parts. Empi's catalog is the holy bible of VW parts and this was a one stop shop for a ton of my needs on this class 11 build! They make it easy and that was a beautiful thing in this time crunch!

The parts EMPI produces now are China made rubbish, they may look good but they don't fit right or last and not worth their high prices. EMPI parts used to be legendary but now they just use the name to sell crap. The only decent EMPI product nowadays are the rims.

@@ShreddyLyfestyle yup. You would have loved how I built my house and shop. The first floor was my 5,000 sqft shop with 8 for post lifts that went 15ft into the ground to store vehicles so the lifts were useable to work on vehicles and not storage. The 2nd floor was 5,000 sqft with 3 master bedrooms that we're 1,000 sqft each. With the last 2,000 sqft was completely opened with kitchen, office and living room. I could work on anytime I wanted to because I didn't have any neighbors but the companies that rented warehouse space from me. It was the best set up. If you don't believe me check it out on Google maps and see for yourself 3240 W sunset Rd Las Vegas NV 89118. Bj Baldwin Motorsports is less than a ¼ mile from my house
