Just bought this car and i love it. is there any modifications or upgrades that people would consider a must have?

Any thoughts?

You could start with a stage 1 re-map... push you up to 240ish hp :)

I am looking to do it very soon to my TFSi, but seems to be the standard first thign in performance as it is only a software mod no hardware needed... Costing from about £240 I think from looking around at a few of the posts on here...

Induction kit - people generally go for the Neuspeed due to cost.

Rev D Diverter valve as the standard generally fails and you loose boost.

Audio - Headunit, door speakers sub (maybe)

HID headlight bulbs - H7r Canbus

Remaps.

Suspension - a LOT of people on here go for the sportline springs to get a subtle drop. If you want a "stance" that isnt "off-the-shelf" then go for coilovers. Also have more options for handling too with coilovers.

Exhausts - not really looked into this, but Miltek is a firm favourite with SCN.

The rest is up to you. Modification is individual and as such...only you can decide what to buy and style ;)

Welcome aboard buddy, we're all a nice bunch and I'd like to say; not AS prejudice as other forums are.

Would you spend 7k on a car then 5k to mod it or buy a 12k car...
