They advise going Stage 2+ with the mods I have.  :pomppomp:

I'm surprised they havent recommended Robin goes to stage 2+ as he also has all the hardware needed  :wink:

....My GTI is a K03 car and also I don't have an aftermarket intercooler. I'm actually quite happy with my car's performance as it is.

Yeah I can imagine yours is quite a weapon as it is, with the combination of smooth power and handling mods! Do wonder what your next mod will be though?  :laugh:

Thanks Gareth  :happy2:

That's asfar as i want to go with the engine... maybe get the SFS hoses at some point...

2013 is going to be suspension...

Uprated engine mounts
SuperPro bushes throughout including the Anti lift console bushes
The GAZ coilovers which have been on hold
H&R Anti-Roll Bars...
All new top mounts/drop-links/ ball joints to totally refresh the suspension...

Can't wait...

....Good thinking, Dom  :happy2:

Having well sorted out handling mods allows you to enjoy using your power mods even more. It better matches your chassis to your power.

On a side note...

My SKY Insurance Modification report form is looking like an intense game of Bingo, and I've nearly a 'Full House'... Thumbs up for their service and assistance in my journey so far...

OK... the last few weeks I've noticed my fuel consumption increase and the idle get ever so irratic, not at all bad, but thought I'd swap the PCV valce just as a precaution...

One revision 'F' PCV valve removed and new Revision 'N' Valve and new gasket replaced, and have a sweet idle, it pulls through the revs smoother and the consumption is back on track... Sorted :happy2:

Once happy bunny... All the latest revision parts fitted now, full Stage2+ hardware, Revo Stage 2+ software with B8T5F8, sub 5 degree temperatures and the Edition 30 is running spot on!

Bad news is, it's coming up to new Tyres time... I thought bloody hell, only put the Conti Sport Contact 5's on New Years Eve! But then realised I have done about 17k miles!

So looking at either Michelins or Goodyears... :scared:

With it being Christmas, and awaiting the birth of my 2nd daughter, who was born on the 30th December 2012... The car has been sat in the garage for the last two weeks, just being turned over every so often... and making use of the wifes ford focus...

But it has given me a chance to give her a good clean!  :signLOL:
