Title: Stealth Edition 30
Post by: Trunkstuff on February 21, 2014, 08:08:56 pm: Hey Guys not been active on here for a long time, Had a new baby to take care off and been hibernating the winter. Looking to be more active when weather gets better and add some more mods!

Spec:

2008 Gti Ed30 DSG Black Bought standard last year.

Mods added:

Lowered on Eibach Sportlines
Full Miltek Sports cat exhaust
Stage 2 remap

I did buy an induction kit off a member on here but was never received, guy took my money and ran :/

Few Pics:

Open to suggestions! I'm thinking about ordering an induction kit again and I need to have a look around for a decent touchscreen headunit with satnav ect. Anybody knows any good ones please let me know :)

Also getting the wheels refurbed in black is high on my list. Also I've heard the dsg remap is really good??

Perfect mate, got these instead of coil overs because I've got a newborn baby. Ride quality is very high mate couldn't recommend them enough to be honest.
