Hi everyone just thought I would say hi. Looking forward to exploring the site for some expert advise.

After owning many Focus ST's I thought I would move on and buy a golf GTI MKv and happy that I did.
So I have a black stock 5 door with 65K on the clock.

Only mod I have done so far I changing the front chrome VW badge for a Black one. Need new tyres all round as the owner before me put tyres called SUNNY on the fronts, the road noise well there are no words, the grip is ? Well there is none. Tyres only score 23% effective in the dry and on 13% in the wet. 

Need to do remap, air filter change etc

So that's it do far.

Souds like tyres are needed    not sure what you have been running on them Ford's but I would recommend the Goodyear eagle f1 asymmetric 2, but loads of threads on tyre choice, just use the "Search" button.

Whole section on maps, from the big boys, Revo & APR to the indie tuners (many of whom are members on the forum).

Thank you for the link. I will upload ASAP. I have been looking at Goodyear so may just do change them anyway.
