1, Remap - more fun, unleash the hidden power
2, Exhaust - sounds nice, DSG pop is awesome
3, Suspension - makes it sit and handle better
4, 19's - they just looked cool
5, Vent mounted Boost Gauge - useful and again looks neat

Not in order:
1) Audi Wheels and Falken tires - Transformed the look of the car and the tires transformed the handling (15" to 18" and budget to better tires)
2) Coilovers (will be here when fitted  :signLOL:) - Will make the wheels look better and improve handling hopefully!
3) RNS 510 and audio upgrade - Great head unit and improved quality.
4) Leather interior - Made the car feel more luxurious!
5) Xenons - Way better than halogens!
5.5) Mk6 mfsw - Alot better feel and buttons are useful!
