Depends on your budget and whether you plan to go to Stg 1, 2 or 2+?

Manual or DSG?
Diamond Black Pearl Edition 30, still going strong but now back to Stg 1

You'll get it mapped, then you'll want it to breath better so then follows an exhaust and intake. By the time you got those bits fitted you may as well go stage 2. Before you know it you will have well and truly been bitten by the modding bug and things will have spiralled out of control. How many times i've heard people say "it was only meant to be remapped"  :signLOL:

Totally agree "Depends on budget"

and what you like/want from your car. I like the inside to be lush.....personally and for me it was

- Centre armrest (if you don't have one)
- RNS510 is a must < Love it.
- Cruise control
- Multi F/steering wheel
- Bluetooth etc etc.

I like gadgets etc. and want the inside to have all the little feature it can, where I spend most of my time. Once happy.....with make start on the outside.
'VANDALISED' MK5 GT :( - RNS510 H, Bluetooth Armrest, MDI, 50gb hard drive, I can't park  sensors, Cruise Control, Highline Display, MFSW, Heated Seats, Remote Aux Heating System (Heats and Vents) Winter Pack, Heated & Folding Mirrors, Puddle Lights, Xenons, Headlamp Washers, Heated Washers, Auto lights and wipers, LED's, GTI brakes,, black R32 roof lining, Scirocco Rear View, Rear Footwell Lights
