    In case you want an overview, I've updated the first page/posts with all the updates/photos in one place.

    As the build continues I'll look to keep this updated for easy reference

        Tigger73's Scirocco

        I did this one a little while back when I changed plates I removed the front number plate monstrosity.




        The screws the dealer used the screw into the plate holder actually also went through the front bumper so I just reused the same holes. Otherwise I probably would have lifted up the plate a bit.




        Used some carpentery stick on screw covers painted to body colour to cover the holes left from the plate bracket. One of the other local Scirocco guys had a sheet of them sprayed. If I'm really keen I'll get the holes filled and sprayed but these work pretty well in the meantime.

            Agree if you're not running Euro plates they're a monstrosity.

            While I was at it I took them off my Tig too

                  How is the sound of the Ramair compared to stock?

                    Definitely more induction/intake noise and more flutter. There's a decent increase in top end performance compared to stock.

                      Cool. Just looked up pricing - I was considering the Racingline intake but this one is one third the price. I like the Racingline one but I don't like it three times better! I think I may get this...

                        The VW Racing/Racing Line intake is so overpriced its not funny. I had one on my old Mk6 R for a period of time and although it was ok, its not worth the cash (mind you i got mind 2nd hand for $500) they ask for them. This Ramair intake looks pretty sweet...only thing im not a fan of is the big oily foam filter. I would be changing that for a blue coloured (to match the car) pod filter from AFE Air Filters - Original Equipment Replacement - Pro 5R - 5 Layer Oiled Media | aFe POWER

                          Yes I'm not a fan of oiled filters and relying on oil to catch the dust. I'll definitely look at getting a non-oil pod if I keep it on [emoji6]

                            On the engine dyno when tuning our race motor we could not see a difference between wet and dry. Wet would most probably start to affect the flow quicker as it will pick up more dirt than the dry filter but it is your motor.

                                Ran the car on the dyno today - 222kwaw.

                                Here's the comparison between stage 1 and stage 2:
