Thanks you guys very much!
I'm really happy you like the car, there are some monster builds around here.

Here are some trackday videos:






I would appreciate any thoughts about how can i further improve this car.

Yesterday I got the rear calipers powder-coated:






If they don't help with the cooling, it is just added weight:
 
Caliper:                1,8 Kg
Caliper Carrier:      1,3 Kg
Rotor:                  6,8 Kg

I still have to find out how much the GTI rear brakes weigh.

Awesome Teo, I'll check the track vids out in a bit  :happy2:

Some great spec going in here.
I like the BBS, a rarer set in the UK.

I've sorted a used S3 intercooler out now, too  :smiley: :wink:

Going well so far there. Add some Ground control adjustable camber mounts.

Also you could opt for the Superpro front control arm kit.

 :happy2:

Thanks Pete! The BBS are gone now, they were 17" and the new BBK needs minimum 18" wheel.
I made somebody very happy, I used them once.  :smiley:
I've ordered TD Pro Race 1.2 8x18. (eta 2 weeks)

Great news with the IC, it will be more than enough for your setup!  :happy2:

Thanks for your suggestions!
I was thinking about camber plates, but I still have to find some for Cupra/B16.
I will read more about the Superpro front control arm kit.

Cheers!  :drinking:
