guys... had some great news that my family will be expanding at twice the planned rate in the next few months.... so have had to rethink my plans for the Ed30... it's a DSG with Revo Stage 1... I had been planning a Blueflame TBE from Nige combined with an ITG from the group buy on here... topped off with a Revo stage 2 and potentially a DSG remap .... however reality struck and I need to prioritise what really matters....
However... before I am forced to do that... if I had to pick one of the above [and yes I know they aren't the same prices] what do people reckon... given I will be keeping the Ed30 for a while now...
-
if it was me i would go with the blueflame and leave it stage 1
-
Yay....more twins must be the air on this forum!
-
Haha have you got twins then??
I was thinking the ITG would have been the best option but interesting to hear the TBE was suggested
-
exhaust all day long or sod all that lot and get a diff fitted :driver:
-
How much does a diff cost ??
-
bout the same as a icandy pear pram :laugh:
-
wow I have no idea about that stuff... m'thinks I'll have a whole new world to find out about

And dont forget twin added tax, oh and the sleepless nights x 2

:signLOL:...might be last mod for a while so do it now---oh stock up on nappies
-
So relieved there's only 1 bun in Tfsi_wife's tummy! :ashamed:
-
And luckily I found a known Icandy Pear Twin that had been preloved, was looking down the barrel of £1450 with all the "absolutely required" attachments and branded Parasols....Couldn't possibly have survived without that particular pram......and if she mentions the city stroller settle with the Icandy its about £200 cheaper!!!
So yeh about the same as a diff inc fitting
Worth it though heres mine at 8 weeks with Mommy

Chris,
Congrats on your news, you'll be fine, apart from skint and tired it's no problem at all.
That said we only have one little cherub, whose 9 months old in few days. She's ace though.
Mod wise, will be interested to hear the TBE, perhaps catch you at Performance Dave's Tuning sometime.
@DaveB,
Mrs B looks well and not too tired mate, so you're obviously doing your turn on the night time feeds.
The boys look great.
Mark

Hi Chris
great news mate.
Don't worry - I'll look after you regarding the upgrades - I know what it's like, I've been there myself bud, remember this time it's special mate.
Imagine being born into a world where your ferried around with pure petrol head music in your ears every day :happy2:

Blueflame for me chris, will last longer and one less thing to worry about on the car, lifetime guarantee as well...might be a tad noisey for the twins tho lol.
-
FYI - the hybrid system is quieter - we can let you have a demo ride in our own car.
:happy2:
