Reminds me of the F10 M5  :happy2: Looks cool actually.

I think the new S3 8V would look good with them too.

I agree  :happy2:

My though was that the tips go black on a mapped GTI very quickly so they may as well just start off black. Coincidentally, there was a BCS system at AKS for a 8P S3 with black tips... great minds....

Pretty well put together system there Rich. What's the sound like compared to the stock system?

Cheers. Its louder than OEM but not obtrusive. You can drive it off boost and you'd not really know it was on. Full chat sounds great, but again, not stupid loud.

Dave... AHHH, makes sense now.  :happy2:

I need camber because I'm low enough to worry about clearance.

These wont help you. You'd need adj. top mounts to tuck
