Induction kits are a little overkill on a stock engine like ours. You'll be better off spending £40 on a decent performance air filter (from Pipercross or K&N) and spending the addition few hundred on a decent re-map for your ECU. Far better gains in power, torque and economy over an induction kit. I myself run just a panel filter and it's more than enough on the K03 turbo standard GTI's run.

Nice choice, 5dr, dsg, tornado red, same here!

So, Ive not been on here in quite a long time.
Work has barely even had me at home in months.

Ive been looking at refurbishing my alloys, does anyone have any recommendations in Glasgow?

also got a couple of small rust patches id like to get looked at, if anyone has any recommendations of anyone that can do it?
