@Martin_jk - Hi mate, saw you coming out of Boots Head Office Nottingham today and I followed behind you for a a bit until you went left at one of the roundabout.

I was in the red ED30 behind you, car looked nice  :happy2:

Hi mate, how's it going? Yeah that was me :) I saw you too was going to give you a wave but was a bit awkward being in front! Thanks mate appreciate it, yours looks really nice too! Reds definitely the best colour isn't it! I saw you before I bought the car a few weeks ago, noticed you have the r32 exhaust looks amazing! Which exhaust system you got mate?

Haha, nice one. Yeah I was going to wave to you but had to keep explaining to the missus why I was so chuffed I saw your car and then you had zoomed off  :happy2:

Looked a very clean motor and see it is stage 2+ so must go like a rocket. See it is lowered, is it 30mm lowered as I have some H&R springs coming tomorrow for a 30mm drop and getting fitted in the next week with my new wheels  :laugh:.

Just have a map on mine but came with the car so not sure what it is or who did it. I think I have only seen one other ED30 around that are and was a silver one.

I have not got a full exhaust, just a backbox delete for now but love the sound and look but it was a hard choice changing the ED30 that much but went for it.

Haha sorry mate I just snook through those traffic lights before they went to red! Yeah its rapid pulls so hard! Not actually sure wether it's still got stage 2+ running on it or not I know it has the dsg remap though, it does feel like it's been remapped tho! Yeah it's lowered 30mm and has front and rear arbs too! Perfect height in my opinion, bet you can't wait to get them fitted can you? I saw a silver on in boots with a girl driving it, was that the same one? Ohh ok still look the business tho mate really like the r32 exit, I want to get the bcs with r32 exit on mine! Your new wheels are really smart btw I love the colour!

Yeah you did but  had your reg by then and was pretty sure I saw that reg on  a post on here and bingo  :wink:. Get it on a rolling road or check boost and bhp with VCDS, that is what I did as have a clone cable. Gives you a rough idea but not accurate. Your car sat very nice with those springs. Not getting mine on until next week as getting done with my DSG service. Yeah I love the ED30 over the R32 for everything apart from the rear R32 looks awesome. Eventually I am going to get a full system but happy with this for now. Cheers, got some rainsport 3's coming Wednesday so will see about getting the wheels on if that F1 place at riverside can stick the tyres on alloys cheap enough.

The silver one I saw was up by the train station at the lights so could have come from Boots. I may sour the car parks as seem there may be a loads at Boots haha. I work at Boots in D90, where you based?

Haha I'm impressed, you have a good memory! :) yeah I definitely need to do that, need to get VCDS I think! Where did you get your clone cable from mate? It does sit nicely and is still practical too, I have dan930 to thank for the suspension set up! Not long till you get them on now thn mate, where you going for your dsg service if you don't mind me asking? I want to get mine done too! Yeah ed30 over r32 all day! Yeah I've heard good things about that f1 auto centre never used them myself but a friend of mine has. Let me know how you get on with the rain sport 3s too! Haha yeah boots is a big place isn't it! My girlfriend works in D90 so normally pick her up, I was just using to cut through today though as I work on lilac grove which is at the back entrance at boots!

haha, was my missus really as made here remember it. got my clone cable off ebay, search for VCDS 12.12 cable. works perfectly for me but only runs on 12.12 version of software so cannot up date it. But still does everything and has saved me money. Shark Perfomance VAG specialist in Mansfield, I am booked in for the 25th to do DSG, spring fitting and rear wheel bearing broke. Yeah people rave about the Rainsports 3's so had to get them. Yeah it is massive mate, ah know lilac grove, used to come out that beeston exit and have uses the garage up there a few times.
