It wasn't so long ago, Oli, that I recall you saying that you never ever mod your cars  :laugh:

will be interesting how you get on Oli with the clearance on the 19s, the 18s are a pinta for clearance and probably up there with the pescaras, my 18s need spaces to clear the AP 4 pot set up so still deciding which way to go  :fighting:

Just about to test fit the brakes, I think they will need 5 or 8mm spacers. 

I might also be getting some H & R coilovers and go stage 2+.............

Spacers on order, Ive ordered 5mm and 8mm, I think the 8mm will be best to give a little clearance.

Exhaust is nearly on, will be finished in the morning. Then stage 2 coding will be on moday am, and brakes hopefully fitted in the afternoon  :happy2:

Sorry no pictures yet, but I will get some up after the brakes are done. 

The exhuast is now fitted.  I went for the race system resonated, and It sounds great.  The standard system on the Ed35 sounded really good already and I didnt want to loose that, and Milltek have done it perfectly, the DSG pharps are slighlty louder, and maybe the exhaust slightly louder overall, but its very oem, which I like.  What I have noticed is the increase in torque, and the engine feels looser - more freer reving, as Ive noticed on previous Milltek systems.  One thing that is very good, is the slight hesitation that I had after each gearchange under full throttle, after the stage 1 map was put on, has now gone totally  :smiley:

Roll on monday, when Im off to Vanworx to get the stage 2 coding, and pick up the wheel spacers, to fit the brakes.  I think it will be a good all round package then.
