    Update:

    Had a 3" Milltek downpipe and Revo Stage2 added yesterday, along with a couple of other tweaks.. the change is worth every single penny. it's a bit louder now, although docile in town and the motorway, if you give it some it howls like hell and pops & bangs on DSG changes/over run.... slaaaaag!

    Spool up is near instant, it revs much quicker as a result of not being strangled by the stock DP and although it isn't a massive hike in figures, the charateristics are a quantum leap. Running 6/9/6 at the mo but will play with that at a later stage, when I know what I'm doing!!

    Oh, and when type-C diverter valves go bad!! Luckily had a type-G in reserve as it went pop in the week.. look at the tear it was p***ing boost out of Surprise no fault codes etc in VCDS, so if you're feeling slow, have a look at yours..

    Ooooh, swish.

    What's this running 6/9/6 thing?  Presumably it's settings for something, but what?

    Boost/Fuel/Timing, you can play around with it all with your Revo SPS box, or Vadge-COM... I've yet to learn how, so am on 'middle of the road for my mods setting'.

     So it's not a crushed velour tracksuit then? Disappointing.

     

    Your car looks absolutely spot-on, and some very good photos too.

    VF Engineering lower mount went on yesterday, beefier than the OEM, removes the voided bush on the joint and less likely to snap apparently... not that I've heard of one snapping, but ho-hum!

    It's meant to eliminate wheel hop, the insert does a fairly decent job of reducing it, but I want none.. can't say I've noticed much additional vibration and it feels more positive. I'll just wait to see if any hop returns? - it always gets you by surprise when you don't want it!!

    However, upon removing the ECS insert that has only been in for 5k/6months, it was found to be knackered. I will be addressing this with Awesome to see why?

    Luckily the kit had another VF one in, so I wasn't exactly stuck.

    Cheers Greg.

    I'm thinking of buying some thin tape and pinstriping just above the indicator on the wing mirrors... just needs another accent to make it work, but something small/subtle?

    Sound ok??

    As Greg says you've done a top job doing it, that's really cool.  However, yes, get to the blue.  I'm expecting that to appear at a rave near home sometime soon wiht that yellow Big Smile
