You are going to have to give us more info on the new Forge intercooler.

Those wheels fit the arches great.
Perfect wheels (if not the best wheels) for the mk5 platform. :notworthy:
They fill the arches lovely BUT have caught the arch a few times since I fitted them. I need to do the screw mod but it actually hit the lip of the arch and pulled the inner lip down

That's what I'll be replacing the useless Dumlops with, that are currently fitted to the ED35. I have them on my van - love them
-
Yeah so much better than the bridgestones that were on my car since I bought it. Ripped them to shreds, chunks of thread missing. With all the wet weather the goodyears have been better that bridgestones in the dry.
-

Looks amazing mate!!
Is your rear valance from here:
http://bit.ly/Whj21A
I want my steel grey gti looking like yours!
-
Yeah that's the one
-
Brilliant!
Ordered....:-)

^^^^
Looking great! :congrats: :congrats: :congrats: :congrats:
I especially like your front splitter - Where did you get it from? :grin:
-
Great looking car and nicely modded too :happy2:

Nice ride..... :drinking:

Can't remember where from. Lol
-
Yeah that's the one
How's the quality and fit Shabba of that rear valance??? Did it come with the exhaust spoiler and no reflectors?
-
The fit is good the finish needs a bit of work but its not really bad. Just a bit of extra prep
I didn't come with the reflectors there available from vw. The exhaust surround is all part of the main part.
My milltek has the adjustable pipes so can make they sit perfect

Cheers mate.

Looks perfect on yours

Very nice indeed :happy2:

....You gonna sell the APR pump? - The word is that it performs better than the OEM pump on a remapped car, even just Stage 1.
-
Saw this today in the flesh, and I have to say it looks lovely. Everything has been done just right, very minimalist. Nice work Dan :happy2: (and thanks for the stage 2 coding, my car is like a rocketship now!!)
-
Very nice car you've got there :congrats:
-
Thanks Guys
I'm not sure might keep it for now. Once I put that on will be temped by stage 3 with a k04 I dunno what to do.
Anyway got my new Revo intake on today, I had it colour coded to match the body colour.

I also pulled the vacuum pump off to check if I had the revision camshaft and I believe I have a newer cam in it

Very nice touch on colour coding the intake pipe, Dan The Shabba Man.
It would only look good on a Steel Grey car though, IMO.
