Looking good, a modification that will transform the feel of the car are engine mounts. Make it a little harsh but a worthy investment especially If you going for power.

Just got myself a REVO SPS switch set for my car with 3 different fuel settings so I can disconnect the battery with no issues  :smiley:

It might be worth having a play with the new Revo toy and adjusting the settings on your car, to see if any improvements can be had. I only suggest this, as there were some very interesting results at the recent Surrey rolling road day. For example a Revo stage 1 car made 285…

From what I remember, you had it setup at a place that didn't have a rolling road and have since added an intake. I'm by no means an expert on the subject but if it was my car I'd like clarification through data logging/rolling road sessions to check everything is optimised to suit. You never know with different settings you may be able to squeeze a little extra... Just my 2ps worth anyway. :happy2:

Took car to vw about wings and sills starting to bubble so they agreed to replace them under VW'S goodwill gesture so really pleased so after that the Plans next are:

Revo engine mounts
Michelin pilot super sport tyres
BCS TBE exhaust
Coilovers
REVO stage 2
Wheel respray
Smoothed front end
Refurb all calipers
 :)
