New Plans
T88OMM:
Right guys just want you thoughts on this one. Subject to me selling my ED30 I will be getting a GT170 Diesel in Black 3dr, hopefully it will be sooner rather than later. I want to break away from the norm on this one and go for a euro look. I have found a few photos of what I want the car to look like. Please look at the link below (it is the black golf a quarter of the way down the page with deep dish wheels on and a belgium plate) :laugh: :jumpmove:

My new car will have the exact same rear bumper as the one pictured (votex) and I would like the bottom half of the bumper smoothed into the top half (no gaps) exactly as the owner of this car has done. I also want the number plate recess made smaller to fit a smaller style plate :jumpmove: I am also not going to have 4 hideous exhaust pipes, I dont want mine to be visible at all, oh an also smoked R32 rear lights. Now onto the wheels, I have got a price on the exact ones pictured and they aint too pricey so I am either going to go for these or BBS LM replicas in a 19' fitment. I would like your guys thoughts on my plans and also any recommendations on wheels type or any cosmetic modifications that could be improved upon :happy2:

I had a 170 TDi Leon. Are you aware that the 170 engine has a DPF fitted, and this has effect on the remap potential. Also i found the economy to be quite poor. About 42 max.
T88OMM:
Yeah I know about the DPF. Milltek have know developed a DPF removal pipe and this adds to the mapping potential. You can expect around 220-230 bhp with a good map and the DPF removed :happy2: If I get 42 mpg I will be over the moon, it has got to be better than the 23-24 I am currently averaging :smiley:
