Very nice. :happy2: 

Are the led sidelights bright enough during the day to act as daytime running lights?  Also, do they look okay in the dark with the standard dipped/full (less white) lights?

Leds are noticeable, but not bright like drl's... Always like the idea of fitting drl into som standard headlights... You can get white looking bulbs that look ok with led sidelight bulbs... Think Mandy's are the best i've seen... non-xenon.

Some pics from todays clean...

A few new bits...

APR Fuel pump, gives alot more flow than the standard and can keep the high pressures performance tuning requires...(130bar!)


A couple of bits imported from America;
UNIBrace XB


UNIbrace UB


XB Fitted last night(rear seats yet to go back in);






Just waiting on my EVOMS intake from america and it's off to JKM to for tweaks on the map and regain the power it should have!

Woohoo!! :jumpmove:

Booked in Thursday 21st June @JKM to have the APR pump installed with a new follower, BCS Stainless Sports exhaust mated to the Pipewerx 3"Downpipe, EVOMS intake fitted and the stage 2 map tweaked to suit... VERY excited...

Have also just put  a deposit down on some Scirocco R 345mm brakes to keep the extra power under reigns...

Good news Dom.

I've literally just got back from a trip to JKM for some tweaks  :wink:, and will be fitting my 345mm R32 brakes on Monday. Looks like we're (spookily) heading in the same direction following the last RR day.

Only minor difference is the K04 turbo in yours, which will make a minor difference I guess  :signLOL:

You heading up to inters next weekend?

K03 stage 2+ now on

Pulls so much harder through the mid range. Totally transforms the car - feels much more alive.

You are definitely in for a treat next Thursday Dom  :happy2:

Same here.

I have absolute faith in JKM, so didn't even question why...
