I'd be up for a SRR visit.

In answer to the OP's question personally I would just go TBE and stage 2.  :smiley:

Been running stage 2 for 70k without an intake as I hated the noise and the car pulls and drives just fine but that's an ed30   :smiley:

Agree with Matt.. I never ran an intake on my ED30 until it went Stage 2+. I ran it with Stage 2 (Milly TBE and panel filter) for 18 months and it was plenty quick enough.. :wink: Only went for an intake in the end when going Stage 2+ .
One of the most noticeable things about going Stage 2 is the DP and spool up. Huge difference IMO..

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to reply about that. :grin:

If the OP is worried about noise then just stick with the OEM filter. When it comes to replace the filter put a pipercross or K&N filter in. You'll not see much gains, but the placebo effect is great :laugh:

If we are only doing limited numbers then why not tag on after someone else.

If you are waiting until Feb then I'm sure RR will be doing another JKM one.

....A Dyno-Day is provisionally booked with JKM either last Saturday in Feb or early March.

NQSBBK being ordered tomorrow, via DaveB's mate Jonny -  http://www.brakecaliperrefurbs.co.uk/  Going for GTI red - Anyone got any ideas on logos?, Im just thinking on keeping it plain.

Looks like I should start a build thread........

....This is a real first for you, Oli - You never usually keep a car long enough! Nor do you do much modding IIRC.

Has the call got through to you at last?  :evilgrin:

Haha. I've always mapped if necessary but that's normally about it. Didn't need to mod the 997 or RS4.

....Very true - They're good out of the box. Although I would have put a Milltek on the RS4, but that's just me who likes sound so much - I love the Porsche 'clatter' when on the revs  :notworthy:
