Lovely looking Eddy you've got young man. Best of luck getting 385bhp from a generic REVO stage2+ map. Possible with a big turbo and a custom map......maybe. Look at R-Tech. :wink:
Happy modding. :happy2:

A friend of mine went on a quest for more power which resulted in him getting the following bits...
BBT Hybrid K04
CTS discharge pipe
Revo throttle pipe
TTRS/RS3 in tank pump
Water methanol injection
He ended up with 391bhp for a short while until things went a little wrong :(
Have a look for yourself here... http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=84642.0

Lovely Ed30 you have :happy2:
Take a look at this - he got 400bhp from a K04 with WMI. you need to replicate his exact setup to get more than 370bhp on the stock turbo :evilgrin:
http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,43854.0.html
It was monsterously fast, and even more powerrful than big turbo setups which were mapped by other tuners (Revo)

What are the best reasonably priced coilovers to go for I don't want cheap and don't want super high race spec just some everyday road, fast road and every now and again track spec ones cheers :happy2:
I'm looking for some everyday coilovers too and it looks like it'll be Bilstein B14s for me :smiley:

I've no experience of coilovers on the mk5, but in terms of ride height, I wanted a minimal drop on mine. 20mm was just right IMHO - I used VWR springs.
Have always heard good things about Bilsteins - had a set on my old mkiv - very good dampers I thought...
Post by: KieranED30 on November 01, 2014, 05:00:08 am
Lovely ED30 Kieran - have you still got the mk1 too?!

No not got the mk1 anymore unfortunately :( was a great car and cheers I think 30 mm should be sufficient as I'm going power over looks :happy2:
Post by: TommyR on November 01, 2014, 11:18:59 am
Cheers I'll look into them, there not mega expensive either which is a positive but is 30mm drop a big difference or is it just right?

Man, whoever owns that red Golf needs to drop it more.
I was thinking that too lol but might be a reason for it like the owner has a steep drive or a very bumpy street haha the black one looks low but can't really tell 100% as the car and the tyres blend in.

There are so many parts like air intakes, DVs, coilovers, exhausts, clutches etc it's so hard to find out what is really the best I have decided on BCS power flow exhaust and a Revo ceramic air intake with heat shield still researching all the rest lol
Hey Kieran - great car, you'll be made welcome any time you want to stop by and have a chat about the Powervalve :wink: systems...

Big update well for me it is I have had the golf at ADS Automotive Diagnostics top garage in Preston by the way sound guys, I had the REVO stage one remap individually set, up cars producing top figures need to rolling road it the garage said its running top of the scale 315bhp and 333ft/lbs of torque I love it transformed the car it's true what people say it's like night and day also got a new PCV valve wanted the REVO blank but they recommended the latest revision were they have fixed the leak issue so got that instead :driver: :jumping: well happy!
Not trying to be funny mate but how can they tell you the car will be running x amount of power without a set of rollers when every car responds slightly differently to mapping?
Don't let them brainwash you with claims and no evidence... Regardless I'm sure you will be made up with the map :)

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.
Yeah getting them done ASAP :smiley:

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:
Yeah I know what you mean ill look into it cheers :happy2:

Nah, get your Pescy's colour coded to the colour of your car, they will look great. A freind of mine has just done that with his similar coloured RS4.......only to be done with a grey car, not a red one!

Need to buy the REVO engine mounts next is there anyone in the northwest that can take a look at my dog bone mount bush to see if it can be saved by a insert or if I need to get a new bush first which is a big job isn't it??

For the wheel colour how about shadow chrome? Little bit lighter than black and looks the nuts when the sun hits it

Yesterday I did a service on it and replaced the OSR caliper due to it been stood for a year it had started to stick so chucked a new one on :driver:
Today I carried out a exterior detail washed, clayed, washed again, dried & then I got the DA out! Compounded, light polish, waxed and then finally sealed the car and glass and dressed the tyres!

How come you got rid of the RS4? Think I used to see the eddy at unphased meets maybe. Always looked nice.
I had my fun in it and got a decent price for it so let it go, now I can put the money towards a house and do what I want to the ED30 & yeah you will have seen in there a lot :smiley:

Yep, you've always got that option. Mine's the Sport version, valved, and it's just right for me.

I'm a few miles away (down near Sheff) but if I'm ever up that way I'll give you a shout, thanksGet a video up if you can - there aren't too many WRC versions knocking about so it'd be good to get the headphones in and hear it howlYep, it's either full on screaming with a little pop between gears, or OEM-quiet with lots of subtle burps and burbles on the over run. Really impressive power gains too. I never get tired of it!Yep, you've always got that option. Mine's the Sport version, valved, and it's just right for me. I've taken the parcel shelf out so I can hear a bit more of it on boost, but it's really quiet when I'm pottering around. I'm glad I went for the valved option!You'll love the exhaust. Best mod I've done. WRC version will be LOUD on full beans!
Look forward to your updates
I was going to get a hybrid but the GTI's sound quiet on videos so was a bit bothered about spending all that money and not being loud enough! If the WRC is too loud I'll get Nige at BCS to put a hybrid silencer in :happy2:
Yeah I have gone with the WRC due to it being valved, if it wasn't a powervalve I wouldn't have done as it would have been annoying, but as it is I suppose it's only as loud as you drive it if you get me.
Fantastic, really can't wait to get it fitted now :driver:
Yeah deffo I'll get the DSLR out and get some footage or even better if your local to me (Lancashire) I could show you in person!
In the meantime some pics and especially vids up on the forum would be great. Always enjoy listening to different exhausts, intakes, that kind of thing! (Nerd alert!)
Sounds good haha!
I'll definitely get enough pictures and videos to satisfy everyone's nerdyness including mine :signLOL:

AWESOME is all I can say, Its fantastic, Driving normal its like stock just with a little burble and a few subtle pop but on boost the beast is released :evilgrin:
I have got a few photos that Nige kindly took so ill put them on when I get chance, unfortunately not had time to get a video of the exhaust but I will get it sorted for you all :popcornsoda:
At the moment I'm just looking into the mine field of coilovers, I'm struggling what to choose, I want a decent drop enough too eliminate arch gap but also want a set that is going to last the lifetime of the vehicle!
I am willing to spend to get the right set up but nothing over the top, Recommendations much appreciated!

Is yours currently standard? Mines on lowered H&R and Bilsteins and I think it looks just right and I find the ride quality's good too (which it needs to be for the miles I do). I'm only 5 minutes from you if you want to compare.
Suspension is currently standard yeah.
That would be great thanks Mark as long as its not too much trouble, I have been thinking about the Bilstein B12 Sportline suspension kit but I would hate to fit it and it not be low enough at least with coilovers I have a choice and if I'm going to a show I can adjust it for the occasion. Just don't have a clue on what coilovers to get :thinking:

Mine already had the H&Rs when I got it so made it a simple decision to just upgrade dampers once original ones were past it
I tend to overthink things and would be annoyed if the springs didn't meet my expectation :doh:
Glad yours was a simple decision, makes sense just to uprate what you have especially if your happy with it; I shall have to take a look :happy2:
