Hey guys. Just got back from pipecraft in Basildon. They have just removed my centre resonator and replaced with a straight pipe.
Very very quick and a brilliant job. The car sounds awesome now. Slight drone when accelerating up hill but when cruising at 70 on a flat road the noise is the same as standard. The best bit though is the noise from the dsg farts. Sounds epic.

Another small update.
So tonight I fitted my cold air feed from the fog light grill. Looks good. Going to run live data to see my inlet air temp and after that I'm going to heat wrap my intake and run the data again and see him much difference it makes

Would be interesting to see if the fog light cold air feed makes a difference at all

Small update time.
My cars now on around 75k so today whilst carrying out the service I decided to replace the oil pickup.
Very simple job to do even without the ball head hex socket. Managed to get on the 2 tricky bolts with a 1/4 drive ratchet and 10mm socket then I used a standard ball head Allen key to remove it the rest of the way. Couldn't see anything in my sump so happy days with that.
The new strainer installed
Also changed spark plugs,
Fuel filter, oil filter and cabin filter
Car is now set for the ring on Friday
