Scirocco r mods

[RoccOwner]

Just on my way to pick up my scirocco after having APR DP, big brake kit and engine mount insert installed. Of course all of this with an APR stage 2 flash. Hmmmmmm it's going to be interesting no doubt.
I'll hold of on the HPFP for the next month or so.

Sounds excellent , report back on your driving impressions !!!

Had the Milltek Turbo-back system (supplied by Ian @ Rennenhaus) installed on my roc yesterday by the boys at RTR and I have to say that I absolutely love it, and although not as loud as everyone expected, I am glad I went with the resonated option, as I would like to maintain a good relationship with my neighbours

[RoccoR]

Sounds great Shedub.
Would love to see some pics of the finished product. (exhaust tips)

Did you personally get a resonator and add it to the kit or do Miltek offer a specific kit with resonator for a quieter exhaust note?
How much louder is it than before? Any Drone?

I will have to take some pics when I come back from my holiday.

Milltek offer a resonated and a non-resonated option. You can swap the mid sections at any time though.

It's not that much louder than stock, just nicer and with the resonated option I have noticed any droning.

Sounds good. I did a similar thing with an APR RSC exhaust system. Got a resonator for it and it actually gave it a pretty good note.

Have u got ur VWR springs Installed yet?? Thinking about getting these however really concerned about driveway clearance.

It's great to see some action in here again. It was very quiet for a while there.
I haven't been able to splash out and buy my Rocco yet, but my cousin is looking at the Millitek non-resonated option for his Rocco, so thanks for the information.
I hope you are somewhere nice for your holiday

I had a lovely holiday, thank you

Guess everyone has either stopped modifying their Rocco's or has stopped reading this thread.

I must admit, I've stopped looking for mods for mine. Still waiting for my wheels lol

I hope you are able to buy your Rocco soon

I have been waiting for your wheels as long as you have!

My busy season and travel finishes late next month. Nanolex, Apr stage 1 and possibly wheels planned for Nov/Dec.

[she_dub]

Haha Ian, I know it's been a long wait. Patience is a virtue that I do not really possess (there are some exceptions ).

Yay for APR! Knew you couldn't resist modding for long

Most importantly, what wheels are you looking at?

[Mac135]

Still looking but i still like the VW Savannah. A bit more agressive than the talle's plus offset fills out the car a bit more.

That might be a bit boring though so undecided.

[RoccoR]

Hi She_dub, do u have any feedback on the VWR springs?? Have u had them Installed? Are u struggling for clearance at all?
Really interested in getting them but would like to hear from someone who already has them.

[she_dub]

I think the standard car ride is too high. The VWR springs lowered it enough for me to comfortably not scrape the lip on every single driveway - just some

Just to add, I've had my springs on since April, and aside from taking some driveways on a more aggressive angle, it's manageable.

I bought my springs from Ian @ Rennenhaus - top guy!

[RoccoR]

Awesome, thanks She_dub.
How have u found the impacts to ride if any?? Especially with ACC. (Comfort, Sport, Normal).

I'm glad to hear that it's still very manageable, that was the key thing I was affraid of.

[she_dub]

Welcome

I drive in comfort mode in the city, and sport on freeways (providing it's not peak hour) apart from the slightly harsher ride, there's no difference.

I am considering coilovers though.. maybe..

[RoccoR]

So the ride is definitely harsher with the springs. Damn it i guess u can't have ur cake and eat it too
That is of course unless u spend some serious $$$ and get the KW coil overs with ACC plug and play.
I was looking at these also before I started considering the VWR springs but the price is simply not attractive.
