Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

What is a JB4 exactly?

It's a piggy back unit for the ecu, and increases the hp/torque.
It's a good system from what I've read up on. It's advantage is that it can be removed, not like a flash tune, where you need to go back to the dealer.

Sorry to anyone that was keen.

Would 17 inch Wheels fit over the front RS Brakes?
Looking at cheap wheels for Track days
17s with good rubber is way cheaper than 18/19sLast edited by HPRS230; 31-01-2017, 04:03 PM.Comment

Wouldn't see a problem, the brakes aren't that big! If you had some Brembos or the like it would be a different storyOriginally posted by HPRS230 View PostComment

It's not so much the size of the rim more the clearance between the back of the spokes and the caliper you need to check.Originally posted by HPRS230 View PostMY16 Candy white Octavia VRS Wagon, sunroof, 19" black pack, tech pack, comfort pack, auto tail gate

Yea, the 18in wheels have about an inch or so to the front brake caliper.
Ill keep an eye out and see what I can find.
I might measure the distance from the centre line of the Hub to the brake caliper.Comment

Ask at BriSkoda.Originally posted by HPRS230 View Post
17" should fit on the 330mm (??) fronts. I know for a fact that 16" fit on the old 312mm fronts of the Mk2 vRS.carandimage The place where Off-Topic is On-Topic

Has anyone done a fuse tap in a mark 3 Oct?
After power while ignition on. Only ones I can find is
clutch/start stop - mini
Rear wiper - normal size
But you can't get a fuse tap as other larger fuse type things are in the way.
Any help cheers
Edit:
Seems like spot 48 (not assigned) might work. Will keep you posted
Edit 2:
Yip that seems to work.
