@strell in all honesty at first I couldn't notice a massive difference but now I love it -  I'm sure I'll be consuming a lot more fuel because of it though!

Nice little update Shoayb.

I think we're all as bad as each other when it comes to making one another spend money!

Sorry to hear about the recent bad luck. But glad it's all sorted. Car is looking stuning. The tyres are a bargain. Had them on my 5 series and may look into getting them for myself when it comes to changing.

Love the colour and the car. Was looking for a white one before I bought my black GTI. White Edition 30 is top of the list next though!

Sorry to hear about the sh*t luck. At least the damage was all on the one panel and the other two were alright in the end. Cars looking great  :happy2:

Small addition to add - just fitted this today:







I didn't want an intake based on the noise levels it creates. The whooshing noises just sent for me although in the (distant) future I would consider a VWR intake as I'm led to believe they are much quieter. I don't plan on going crazy numbers but stage 1 is on my mind.

Thanks to @Dave J for the speedy delivery and @bonelorry for his time and advice.

Next plan fingers crossed is the pilgrimage to RTech for a stage 1 map!   :happy2:

You're welcome, & good to read this update! Glad to hear you're happy with the VWR filter. I bought it thinking I wouldn't want an intake kit, and then I watched Youtube...
You'll be over the moon with a Stage 1 remap - I can't believe I didn't have one sooner on mine...

Cheers @Dave J

Stage 1 is on the list not helpful though that rtech have put their prices up just as I was gearing up towards it!

Only concerned though I've noticed people get wheel spin when going on to stage 1. I was keen to avoid this - is it possible?
