Not feeling very positive towards it either, annoying little issues happening now that aren't easy to fix/identify
Hows yours coming along dude?
Got the FMIC on now, still ain't got around to fitting the tip yet though. Got the 18's on now too. Slow progress
Replaced the broken droplink with better steel versions.

Are those Powerflex bushings dude? I am in the process of ordering complete kit of poly bushings but cant decide with which brand. Powerflex, Whiteline or SuperPro?? Any ideas/recommendations please anyone??
Yep, Powerflex. I dont think it really matters much.
I have Powerflex for:
-Droplinks
-Steering rack
-Front and back Dogbone
-Front ARB bushings
-Rear Axle beam bushings
SuperPro for
-Front and back wishbone bushings
Whiteline for
-Rear ARB
I am thinking of going SuperPro all around to be honest! One thing worries me though.. will the car become WAY TOO STIFF to drive it every day??
I'm going to be getting
Powerflow - droplinks
Super pro - Steering rack
superpro - Front and back Dogbone
powerflow - front ARB bushings
Superflow - Rear Axle beam bushings
Superpro- front and back wishbone bushings
superpro - rear ARB
But that's all subject to change. Want the back a bit tighter than the front to help reduce understeer a bit.

It was almost the standard cat back. I fitted a centre pipe from a 1.9tdi (on the great recommendation of lee69).
Sound wise- not a massive difference in the cabin, a bit more turbo noise but not much else. It grunts a bit between 3-5k when you boot it.
If you can be bothered with the hassle of getting it on (heatwrap makes things harder) it's worth doing. Power seems to come in a bit later than it used to but that doesn't bother me
Not quite sure how you came to that, true track cars will be mostly rose jointed and spherical bearings with few bushes
Also powerflex do varying types for different setup
I was thinking the same thing, Powerflex also has Black series.

Ronin225, what's your opinion/input regarding bushings? There so many options out there and I am really buffled as to what's the best way to go! Basically the car is a ~300bhp street car (everyday usage) with potential for track days!
Anyone else has any inputs/thoughts? Any comments are more than welcomed!
