What did you do to your Polo today?

[Blitzen]

That would be sweet if it does fit. Looks to have been made out of the std one, is it?

Gavin

Its a full custom one, just has the standard bash plate fitted to it...Its a 2.75in dump pipe on it, so I may get some decent gains...

You should log the boost before you do and and if it comes in earlier.

Mmmm...I will...Can VAGCOM do that?

[polo_spec_d]

Switched it back to steelies and changed the grill back aswell, give it that stock look oh and lowered the coilovers on the rear aswell....loving this oettinger tune too.

put some eyelids on that mate and it would look tuff as nails!

Finally installed my SEAT intake. That completes my induction mods. Initial thought is that there is definately an overall improvement. Acceleration seems more crisp & responsive but its really felt up top in 5th gear. Acceleration from 80KPH+ is vastly improved. Bit more of a burble in the exhaust as well. I am pretty happy with the overall result.

Mozz - good to hear you like it.

installed my seat intake as well,..........basically noticed the same inprovments as mozz.

[mikepologti]

just a question does everybody have that gap under neath where it conects to the grill? its about a 10mm gap.

Don't know mate. Not than I am aware of. I didn't notice any gaps anywhere. I took the grill bracket off to dremel out that flap and bolted it straight back on. Apart from the fact that the SEAT intake was a bit of squeeze to put back, everything looks pretty sweet and everything sits flush as if it was stock.

[Gti Dave]

When I installed mine a while back, I left the flap on and not sure if I should've dremelled it off. Any sugestions from anyone if there are any gains/benefits out of this that anyone has noticed before and after the flap removal?
Great to hear both of you recieved and are enjoying the benefits of the SEAT intake. Have fun guys.

Looks the goods Jon. I've had my eye on a CDA9887 for the polo for some time, but haven't quite got there... What are you doing for splits/ sub etc?

[mikepologti]

mozzy:- where the seat intake trumpet ataches to the plastic grille harness. after it is atatched theres about a 10mm gap below the seat intake and the grill harness .not sure how best to explain it, id take a photo but it was a tight fit to get in there.nice work jon, looks awsome, the blue display should word well with the rest of the gti displays.

hey dave, i cut my flap out ages ago, even when i was using the stock trumpet.

i would suggest cutting it out- the flap is quite intrusive, and i personally couldnt see the point of dropping a couple hundred on a nice Seat intake, whilst that flap was still covering a good half of the feed into the Seat pipe.

i didnt dremel mine, i just cut it out with a stanley knife. did the trick, and allows it to breathe better.

cheers
