Ive got a corsa vxr and im looking at swapping my car with one of these. Yours looks like a nice example. Are you not having it remapped or anything like that??

With an uprated full exhaust and intercooler you would effectively be at Stage 2.

Software difference I understand is minimal from 1-2. Mostly mapping out the EML and some optimisation.

My 1.4tsi at Stage 1 is a peach, but would love to open up the extra 20 or so bhp with an exhaust.

Nice plans

should have em on at the end of the month,

plan is to buy some 15mm spacers for the front to clear the brakes, and drop the front suspension down, and get some puuuma drop links.
