I still have the devils own kit and it will be fitted to the .:R when I go stage 2+.

My feelings are that the kit should be as simple as possible, so there is less to go wrong with it. Some of the Snow and Aem kits are very complicated for what they need to do.
Golf R gone.

How hard are the WMI kits to install?

Ive heard Devils own is good but aquamist is on top!
If it's not broke, Mod it.....

I am going for the AEM kit so voted thus.

The reason.............looks very nice, it has been recommended by Alex at AKS and it has a wire out to ground the N75 so I can map upto the WMI then if it runs out or blocks it cuts the N75.

I am sure others do this.

I may get the readout that can you can plug into a laptop to see how its running as well. :popcornsoda:

I've always used the aem kits.  Have one waiting to go on to the vRS.

Very easy to setup on the controller and tweak tp the sweet spot.

As h4rdy says, can be wired to cut boost if there is a fault or the meth runs out.

What you looking to pay, as just found some gorgeous 17" wheels, just checking offsets etc and whether 17's will go over scirocco R brakes...

 :signLOL: :signLOL:  Only one night ago, you were telling me you weren't spending any more  :laugh: :laugh:

Regarding Snow Performance kits, keith@APR wanted me to buy a Snow Performance kit for my car as he had good experience of them, so i spoke to jabbasport the UK dealers for them, who advised me not to buy Snow Performance because theres no aftersales support outside the US if something fails.  He told me to buy Devils Own which uses the same pumps but have UK support if it goes wrong.
