All Things Mk5 > Performance Modifications
Best sounding intake
gixerben:
yeah, the plate is a billet item so looks to have been revised, and to be honest it seems that all uprated clutches have issues good/bad and you just have to make your decision and stick to it!
Nothing will be as user friendly as OEM but if were gonna increase engine performance over standard and maintain some reliability then sacrifices need to be made..
Can I ask how many miles you covered in the 4 years? I would have owned mine 10 years at this point so it my still be in my ownership or not!
As for the 7R they are still a little out of reach at present, especially when it spends most of the week sitting on my driveway
absolute:
I would love an MK7.5 R or a Audi S3.
Might sound doom and gloom, but I sometimes feel that I don't want to own a MK7 R because of the amount of them that get targeted and stolen.
There has been lots of car crime in my area, and I live in a non ghetto part of Cheshire. They are steal to order now, what with them relaxing the rules on written off cars.
They steal to repair write offs, and sell them on clean.
Don't really feel like having someone come into my home for a set of car keys.

High end vag car crime is just plain daft at the moment - the funny thing is these scum bags are so brazen they're streaming live videos and posting the cars they've stolen all over instagram. For the 3-4K miles a year that we do nowadays I'll stick with my trusty old Leon

Did you see the pics of the 7R on a dealer forecourt? Wheels gone..... all brakes gone.....
They couldnt sell a 7R cheap enough to tempt me to buy one.... No way on earth I would even think about owning one, never mind buying one.
Dan_FR:
I did indeed, not just the R outside but there were several more vehicles stripped inside in some sort of storage car park area too. How brazen can you be to strip a car outside a dealership FFS.
The videos of thieves breaking in through the door with large blunt objects and machetes without a care in the world other than your car keys..... Whole lot of nope from me :signLOL:
