RS4 FPRV :happy2:

Yes mate. It cured my flat spot at around 5200-400 revs.

Really...? Contemplating this at the moment...

Part numbers are fine for the boot pop.

From something I posted the other day.........

I'd add the boot pop mod' to your car. Not only is it very cool but also (the main point for you) it adds much larger Pump Stops (these are also sprung) which will more than take up any play in the boot as they are adjustable. You could always just get the stops alone, swap them out and job done, takes about 2 minutes.

Boot Pop Kit Part Numbers

2x Skoda Fabia Gas Struts                    6Y0 827 550 C      £35.98 inc Vat for the pair
2x Scirocco (sprung) Pump stops          1K8 827 761 D.     £9.89 inc Vat for the pair. Bits that you need most!
2x Seat Leon Ball pins                           1J6 827 439 A     £11.97 inc Vat for the pair.

A "How to" guide on fitting the Boot Pop Kit (includes fitting bump stops).......

If you go for the Boot Pop it will need coding via VCDS afterwards to allow the mod' to work.

Hope this helps 

Added to my Christmas to do list :happy2:  Off to get the parts :party:

Here's mine-

1) K&N Panel filter - much better throttle response and around 5bhp  :happy2:

2) Pre-cat removal - improved turbo spool, more turbo noise and a further 6bhp.

3) gloss black front badge - sets the front off nicely

^^^^ I have found in the past that VW are unable or unwilling to get Skoda parts. I got the Seat pins and Scirocco stops from VW and the Struts from Skoda. Or try TPS for the lot.

ah yes a good few there i had forgotten about  :congrats:

of course free mods as well like removing the inner arch screw and removing the clutch bleeder block maybe.

how much are the R8 oil and coolant caps they over £50.00?

Did not realise the boot pop mod was in this kinda bracket, thought was relatively expensive for some reason  :chicken:
