Thanks again for all the info Sambb.. spoke to the exhaust guys and they reckon the gasket is reusable 99% of the time, so I've crossed my fingers and gone for it. Also spoke to prestige performance and they say all should be good with a software update. So cautiously optimistic again!

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.

They're naturally aspirated, not much can be done without serious coin... buy the mkVI Golf R instead... Though the engine/exhaust note almost makes up for it.Originally posted by louis19 View PostOh I did! Put it this way, based on the way they were asking I wouldn't be surprised if Gav gets contacted getting ask to tune a R32 coming up hahaTrack Car: 06 Polo GTI Red Devil mkII
Daily: 2010 VW Jetta Highline
Gone but not forgotten: 08 Polo GTI

Even still I could tell he knew what was under the bonnet of both cars and assumed he would have been the faster one out of the two. And I agree, the sound it was making was unreal, even at idle they have a great toneOriginally posted by seangti View Post

S3.
Same engine, much cheaper (well, they're older, so cheaper by age). Looking to dump and tune mine at the end of the month.Comment

It's pretty surprising what you can beat with the stage 2 and a few other basic modsOriginally posted by louis19 View PostEven still I could tell he knew what was under the bonnet of both cars and assumed he would have been the faster one out of the two.

Agreed Dan! My mate dropped his jaw when I raced against his Magna which he has done a 3.8L Mitsubishi 380 engine conversion in. Was dead even until end of 3rd gear. And mines I guess what you would call not full stage 2 yet (I called it stage 1.5 lol) as I dont have a front mount and running lower timing. Will be good to finally get the front mount on.Originally posted by Paazuzu View PostIt's pretty surprising what you can beat with the stage 2 and a few other basic mods
Also my stubby antenna came today so my car no longer looks like a toy car
