Title: Got myself a little treat..
Post by: ashw831 on July 12, 2012, 10:13:12 pm: Hi all, I have been a member on here in the back ground for a while whilst I made up my mind what car to get. I made my decision and bought myself a beautiful 05 plate red gti (3 door of course) loads of extras on. Made up with it and need to try and resist the modifying slope (coming from 2 mk4 gti's I know it is a slippery slope!!)

I can't put pictures on at the moment, as I am using my iPhone for this! Will get some the weekend once she has had a good polish!!

Hi all!!!! :-D

I also think the pre cat has been removed... Is popping and can hear the turbo quite loud and spools very quickly?!? I take it the only way to find out is whip it of isn't it?
