Didn't change the arms just the Salk and torque bush insert mate. The torque bush is just to protect the flex I on the downpipe havnt noticed any difference in gear change although I've only done 10 miles max in the car since.
They are both very easy to fit. I have a ramp and air guns so it took me around 5 mins start to finish but easy diy for anyone with a brain IMO!
And yes you will need wheel alignment after! :)

And the SALK really surprised me too when I fitted it the first time in my GT Sport. For me any mk5/6 Golf should have it. :smiley:

Yeh it's a known weak spot on these and the polo/fabia base too, but I still wasn't expecting such a big improvement!
Traction is so much better now! And that was on damp roads, havnt really tested it in the twisties as it was dark and wet but can't wait to push it abit :)
Just coilovers or h and r springs now and the car should feel perfectly balanced! Think I'll be tempted to save my penny's for a hpfp and intercooler then

I have no idea mate havnt looked into it yet as it will be well into 2016 before I have the funds as I have a mortgage to pay! lol
I think the peron gets good reviews and for good value I keep seeing 'wellycooler' pop up and I think r tech have started supplying them too but like I said I havnt done my research so cant really give advice
