@Shoduchi : you're right but it is a very well designed & maschined piece!
It'll still be in the back of my mind :rolleye:
Also forgot to mention yesterday that I've received the
Superpro KIT5238RK rear control arm & trailing arm bush kit.

It's pretty but from what I've read on Facebook it doesn't flow properly. Just works well with IE remaps. Niki Gower from R-Tech had a car with one fitted and tested it. It needed some interior adjustments to improve air flow, so not that good for the price. If you want a bigger intake manifold you can consider one from RPC Motorsport: https://www.facebook.com/rpcmotorsport/posts/894297794033941.
Shoduchi:
Also, great upgrade with the SuperPro rear suspension kit. :happy2:
RBS:
Thanks buddy :happy2:
This is the kind of info that I needed! I coulden't find anything about it!
Only a couple of youtube vids and the info on IE's site. Now I know! :happy2:
Also thanks for the info about RPC Motorsport :notworthy:
It looks like there is a lot to improve on the intake. So no IE, HPA or other intakes for now.
Found RS4 injectors in the states and will keep them for now. I won't mount them yet.
I'll go for the upgrade with the parts I got and let the intake for now.
Shoduchi:
You'd benefit more of the intake manifold and RS4 injectors if you were aiming for +400 BHP and fitting a bigger turbo or a K04 hybrid at least. I wouldn't go higher than 420 BHP with the stock internals. If you say what is the power that you're looking for, we can try to help you with the parts needed. :smiley:

:grin: :grin:
That's the thing! I only wanted a small gain on power! 300bhp was the target :drinking:
I think with the parts I've bought I'm well over my target! :wink:
But that's the problem!! Once I started I couldn't stop or help myself :rolleye:
I was out off vw's the last 10 years. Once I bought the ED30, the virus came back!! :jumping:
It is such a great car! And a lot of potential to improve on the engine! I'm not saying it's under powered
but you can play with it like Lego :signLOL: This is why I love it so much and I think we all do here :drinking:
This is just the engine and suspension which I started on, the interior is also to be modified. But only minor things like switches, led lamps and a touch of carbon.
This I why I love this forum! Changing idea's and receiving input of other enthousiasts! :congrats: :congrats:
