Thought it about time i joined this fabulous resource that i have been using since late last year.
Can i just say how pleasant it is to find a well used, well respected forum about the GTI. No surprise there are so many enthusiastic members when the site is like it is - I spend a lot of time online researching for my job and spend a lot of time in and out of forums looking for tips/tricks and advice etc. and i wish they were all like this one!
Owned the Golf now for 2+ years and i can honestly say - short of spending £30k+ on something else there is nothing that interests me - think that’s a good thing! Especially as me and the missus are getting hitched this year
(Chief & Commander won’t let me spend £30k+ on anything!)
I got the GTI (standard, 5dr, manual) remapped last year at JBS Autos in chesterfield with a Custom Code map - some people i have spoken to said that it wasn't my best move and proceeded to tell me to get it taken off or have another more reputable map put on the car like Revo or Bluefin. Are their concerns and advice warranted? It's just i got all panicked that the engine might go pop soon...

Well that's me for now - if anyone sees me around Sheffield give me a flash - reg: 9 RCC (black 5 door GTI)
