So, having had my baby for about 18 months now, it's time for me to start thinking about modding her...

The current plan is to get to stage 2+, with a few other handling mods, and, if I win the lotto, do an AWD conversion...
As my Eos is based on the Mk5 Platform, and has the GTI's BWA engine, most parts are plentiful, so that will definitely help.
Step 1. Change the AFM to turbo pipe (wish I could find this one - Samco Silicone Intake Pipe)
Step 2. Upgraded HPFP (Considering APR, IE, CS, AT and VIS, but will probably get the APR as it suits me better)
Step 3. Rear Sway Bar Upgrade (Probably 3C0511409E 21.7mm x 3.6mm from a Passat, but I need to check which I have now)
Step 4. High Flow Filter (Still Paper Style though)
Step 5. Dump Pipe (Probably Empire Performance with 200cel Cat, but possibly APR as it give a discount on stage 2)
Step 5.5. 'Straight' to APR Stage 2+ done at the same time as step 5
Step 6. New Shocks (Probably Bilstein B6's)
Step 7. DO88 Intercooler
Step 8. Front Alloy lower control arms / knuckles (From Passat)
Step 9. AWD Conversion (Mk5 R32, Mk6 Golf R, or Audi Gen2 TT as donor)
