Yer bit of a random quote from him
Don't know many people that make there own lowering kit or exhaust systems ect
I'm loving the car at the moment just gona make it a bit more stiffer with braces and new polly bushes ( which yes I brought as didn't have time to develop my own lol )

Also about to order up my down pipe

Prove going to go for the pipewerx one with decat as I havnt rear any bad reviews on it yet

What do you think ???

Have you got the milltek cat back?
personally would go for the milltek 3" downpipe and decat £380 inc p&p on the bay , think the pipewerx is about the same?

Well I must say that wow what a difference the n249 bypass makes
The car seems to rev and pull alot better, and the dumpvalve seems to be alot happier

I also decided to go back to cold side dump valve relocation as it was getting rather hot around that turbo area

Also after lowering it I love how the rear sits but want the front a fraction lower so I ordered up these

So will hopefully pop them on this week when I get a spare half a hour

Also had some spare cash in my paypal account so I decided to order up one of these too

Hi Aaron,

Liking the headlight covers a lot! Are they a VAG or aftermarket product? With the coilovers fitted now, and you wanting it to go a little lower, what are those above? Top mount caps for the coilovers? What further drop will they allow? Where did you purchase yours from? I've seen some reprofiled top mount bushes before, but not these. Any light would be greatly appreciated!

James:)

Love the box, what size sub you got and where did you hide the amp ?

Bought not built implies you bought the car from someone else thats done all the hardwork by adding all the mods, but your thread clearly shows your doing all the work yourself so know idea what he means :confused:

also how much was the heat shield ?

Right had lots of bits collected up over the last month or so
So thought I'd let you know what's on my list

Got a Nomad single pillar pod and autogauge boost gauge

Also managed to get a full recaro interior which I'll be getting in ASAP
