Yep, hoses!
All blue : awesome's high-quality spec; forge's brighter blue white forge logo is more the theme, split-r polished, neuspeed al dipstick, maybe door speakers and do the door seal fix..

Will forge's have the same spec as awesome's?
awesome's are fully silicone in and out, manufactured here and QA corporate style..

TIP is different to turbo hoses then? Al neuspeed one?

Any comments on my shopping list? 16" 51 Cupra Imperial Blue. lower by 40mm?

where's good to get bushes, INA best but expensive?

NE comments welcomed on the listed mods, as not bought all of them yet.
Is it better to do hoses after remapping, as i can't afford both?

Thats better :)

List of mods look good. TIP are known to collapse after a remap, but not always. Maybe get that one done first just in case. Go with Forge or Samco for that one

1 x Awesome Turbo Hose Kit Leon Cupra 1.8T 180bhp - Good upgrade, think these are SFS hoses made for Awesome?

1 x CompBrake Side Shift Adjuster for VAG 6 Speed Models - Good upgrade, coupled with the short shifter

1 x ECS Race N75 Frequency Valve 1.8T - Not really necessary on a standard car

1 x Eibach Anti-Roll-Kit Leon (1M) 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 1.8 T, 1.9 SDI, 1.9 TDI 11.99 - 08.05 - Depnds how much you like to chuck your car round roundabouts lol.

1 x Forge 7 Piece Coolant Hose kit For VAG 1.8T - Pricey, but very good quality

1 x Forge Splitter R Recirculating Blow Off Valve 1.8T - Most people on here use the forge 007, but a lot have and still do use the split-r with no problems

1 x K&N 57i Induction Kit Leon 1.8T - Go for jetex or neuspeed

1 x Neuspeed 1.8T 180 Degree Thermostat - On my list to buy too

2 x Neuspeed Billet Aluminium Dip Stick Handle Cap 1.8T - Bling bling! Would need to do some other under bonnet bits so it doesn't stand out too much

1 x Neuspeed Stainless Steel Brake Lines Golf 4 1.8T etc - Improves brake feel. Another option is HEL

40mm drop sounds ok, check out dpm's section in the traders, and look at the weitec springs/shocks setup

Safe gezmeister!

It had been a long, but awesome, weekend was bitten by a dog earlier too so now have sore arm from tetanus!

No N75 - that's good, I don't think I budgeted enough for fitting in my calculations!

Thinking jetex cone with heatshield (seemed to say neuspeed in the heat shield)

Split-R; really excited! Polished aluminium plus all blue hoses and tip! wahoo! PLus the bling dipstik!

EXHAUSTS - HELP! What's best for about £250-300? Downpipe / cat-back / decat...???
