How many different tuners have touched your MK 5?
« on: November 16, 2011, 12:43:43 pm »
Was looking through list of mods declared to Greenlight and came across - 


Forge
Wavetrac
Sachs
BSH
Eibach
Whiteline
Bilstein
THS
BDM
Ferodo
VAG Audi upgrades - TT, RS4, S3, R8
Porsche front calipers
Revo
Pipewerx
Autotech
Osir
ECS

Am sure is a drop in the ocean though compared to some peoples but was unaware had used so many different firms!

I always keep Greenlight updated with a full list of all my mods and that list is longer than an A4 page.

However, only a few different tuning companies have 'touched' my car:

Loders of Dorchester (my VW dealer)
Loders' affiliated bodyshop
JKM
AP Racing
Revo
VWR
Milltek

This covers a 6 year period since I bought the car from new.

If I was to list the BRANDS of mods on my car then the list would be as Greenlight have. But I have answered the question of "how many tuners".

indeed, but if you have made suspension mods in form of WALK and rear ARB, I found fitting the Bilstein B12 kit to make far more difference to the handling than any other suspension mod - sublime

Before I spend serious time listing my brands of mods, are we including those which we have had but no longer have?
