yeah same engine as the S3 so 300 ponies easy with remap.

i'm holding off for a bit longer till someone tests how strong the OEM clutch is on the manual with a remap.

 :signLOL:

same as the edition 30 so it will be fine i reckon, mine never slipped

Very nice Shaun, I got the impression you were on the verge of a change from a recent post or two.

You'll love the DSG, I am definatley getting a DSG next.  Talked my Bro into getting DSG on his Leon and he loves it too - like you say, nothing wrong with manual but the DSG just rocks.

What made you choose this over the Golf then? Just out of interest

Shaun hope you have cruise control on it from factory,  cos if its a 2010 build after week 45 you cannot retro fit it :confused: but you do the dial sweep on start up like I did with DaveB 's Rocco :happy2:

I suppose a few things made me pick the roccoc, I did like the golf R , it was very nice, but to get a decent spec the cost was hideous, the rocco felt quicker and sounded brilliant, plus the new golf is possilby out in 2012 so didn't want to be out of date so quick, and this one just worked out right too, I got a good deal and held out for better money on the ed30 so all in I'm quite happy with the deal.

hmm, I have no idea what build it is, can I tell by how old it is as to what week it is?, if I'm honest I don't know if it had cruise as it's not something I ever used on the golf, out of interest hoe come it can't be added !?
