Had my ride just just over a year now. Thought id give you some insight into it.



Within the 1st few days of getting it i went straight to a track day at snetterton...





as it started off ...





Then my number plate transfered finally so i could put on my new car..





Had a few pc plod issues so took the black one off...








Fitted some led sidelights to match the oem xenons.



Decided to spruce up the standard wheels...





Attended a few shows...



Finally managed to get revo stage one code loaded up..

It made 315 bhp with 329 lbs of torque :)



very impressed...

I wanted some noise! so done the forge spacer... vroom tischch.


Then i decided to start upgrading a few more parts. I started by installing the s3 intercooler.



then fitted some vf enginerring mounts...



then sorted the bsh intake onto the car.. (not connected in pic)


Then i found out a friend has the same car as me :) (poverty on here)



To improve shifts i fitted the front to back and side to side short shift from forge...



Then after a few logs and settings change with the revo code to accomodate the intercooler and induction kit finally it was time to get it back on the rollers...



It made 347 bhp and 344 lbs or torque  :P



Graph:





Then i went to another car meet, Players v dub show :)



Thanks for reading, i have missed out a few minor service images and various tyre changes along the way but you get the idea.

very nice motor, think theres more cupra owners on here than gti owners now  :signLOL:.

Really good figures considering you dont have dp or hpfp.

mine made 329bhp at the weekend with dp and hpfp running stock intake and ic so kinda the opposite mods you have.
