The beast so far

[Mysticality]

I have the hardest available torque arm insert in my claky, vibrating diesel. It was so bad for the first 1,000km but calmed right down.
Idle was just like how I would imagine a V8 supercar would be - horrible and just... Racecar!

Reverse is still bad, but as long as you get the revs above idle the vibes go away.
Of course, having the manual helps a lot.

With the insert in, my TDI M6 is quicker than a TSI DSG6

Did a little dip on the doors light night, I think darkshadow did this first, or someone else with a yellow sedan

i don't know if its just me, but i see no difference on your doors? apart from the vrs badge.
btw - i haven't done anything to my doors. they're as is.

That bold yellow makes the car look short!

So here are some current pics of the car... Looks so much better in person tho...

Up to date mods list is as follows:
Eibach lowered springs
Whiteline adjustable rear swaybar - set on medium
Torque arm insert from dub addiction - I am going to remove this as vibrations are just a bit more than desired
Custom Dump pipe
Bluefin tune - Stage 2
Plastidipped front grill black
Plastidipped rear octavia badge
Powder coated wheels in Satin Black
Plastidipped roof rails in black

Very nice!

How hard was the torque arm insert to do? Simple job?

[zei20t]

very nice!!

how is your Bluefin stage 2 map? do you have DSG?

As far as im told, it is easy to do as it goes into a void underneath, then you use the bolt and washer supplied to fasten it in. My mechanic did it for me when he installed my suspension but he said its a simple job... just gotta get under the car...

Yeh its alot better now than when first installed (apparently takes a couple tanks to sort it self out..... I still get the odd misfire here and there so im hoping the R8 coil packs will help that out - if not, i'll just go back to tigersoft performance and they will work something out... 2nd and 3rd gear just wants the car to fly... heaps more power...

Yep I have the DSG.... would love this in manual tho... would be so much better to drive...
