....322 miles in greasy conditions on all sorts of roads yesterday, with about 240 bhp and Quaife ATB diff = Not one single case of TC lighting up and I wasn't hanging about as I was intent on testing my car with its new turbo.
:smug:
Joking apart, a Quaife/Peloquin diff could help.

It's on the ever growing list Robin :scared: I just need to stop spending all my play money on wheels :evilgrin:

....
At about £1,500 all inclusive of installation and vat (for DSG), it's not cheap and possibly not worth it if you don't intend keeping your GTI for a while. But if you've got lots of neddies straining at your front wheels and you're hanging on to your car, I'd say it's a very underrated mod.
It's not quattro but it sure does help significantly.
I asked for prices from 3 respected workshops and they all came within £30 of each other. However, due to their experience, VWR were always going to get my job.
The list never seems to end, does it, Nathan.

Very true Robin, but I think were ALL gulity of helping to relieve each other of our cash when we come on here and tell how good our latest investment has made our GTI feel :grin:
The plan is to keep the car Robin, as long as the next 'whim' that comes along doesn't mean I have to sell her :wink:
Top Cat:
The anti lift kit really helps with traction i dont know how much it will help you with something like 55 % more power than mine. But i struggle to get the traction light on now when exiting bends no question a great mod for the money. :driver:
