There should be a metal heat shield that sits under the section near the MAF, and another foam section that sits across the battery cover!  :happy2:

there is a piece of black metal that's connected to the MAF housing and is connected onto the engine using the same poppers the engine cover connects to. And im waiting for a replacement battery foam bit.

That'll be why we can't see it then if it's Black!  :laugh:

Mine's the same silver finish as the heat shield next to the filter!  :happy2:

After a good run today i can see what everyone was complaining about with the bluefin map. 2nd gear is awesome, anywhere past 4500rpm in 3rd or 4th and you can physically feel the car slow massively on acceleration. Going to have to try a different map i think

well spend the morning attempting to change drop links myself!

had the car up on axle stands, managed the drivers side in about 10mins...the passenger side basically told me to go F*** myself so at 12 i had to give up as i have work tonight and needed sleep!

off to a garage tomorrow to borrow the ramps so i can have another try along with my n75 valve and cam follower!

well after a lot of hassle trying to get Superchips to give me a 2+ map that worked, and them telling me its my car. I went to Awesome gti and had revo stage 2+ loaded, perfect.

Rang Superchips who reset my handset and refunded me any money i spent with them.


Had a DSG service done which went well and made a massive difference, car is a lot smoother now.

Dont have any further "plans" for the car. Just want to get myself round Nurburgring at some point.
