I need to contact the administration for the MK7 forum. I have joined but haven't had any activation to be able to post etc.

Chatted to the guy in the GTI beforehand and he was running 350bhp. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOMKrJpz8U0 Horrible 30+ mph headwind on the day too. Both full weight and I had a 15 stone passenger in the R.:smile:

Been down to my local Independant VW specialist today as a mate was down there having a dyno session. After fiddling with the REVO settings he managed a run of 341.6bhp and 320 lbft (revo stage 2+ on a K04 Edition 30) The settings were altered substantially as he was having huuge boost at first...

Nitrous is on! Dyno result 04/08/2010. So, I was thinking.... "What would give me all the power I could ever need and yet keep the response of a K04 turbo" The answer Nitrous injection. So I duly bought a full progressive NOS kit along with dual bottles, race controller, bottle heaters...

Turbo Dynamics in the UK are now doing exchange hybrid K04's for the Edition30/S3/Cupra and two UK tuners have already done the conversions. Looks like it will be the next "big thing" in the UK. I'm still waiting for dyno results, but I've driven one and it is verrrrryyyy smooth and with more of...

Enjoy:happyanim: http://vimeo.com/11100503 This video shows an 8min 18sec bridge to gantry section, an 8min 45sec full 'ring and a 10min 42sec flying lap from/to the 50 yard marker for the first turn. Best of the day was an 8min 15sec bridge to gantry off a 10min 37second full lap.:cool: My...

What can I say......... AWESOME!!!! The trip down was lovely. fine weather all the way and Robin, who I was travelling with (he took his red GTI MKV) had a gorgeous 18yr old, track obsessed lady with him from the Northloop forum, who asked to come down with him at the last minute (she knew...

Finally, finally made it (on the private drive!! :wink:) Flat, with a slight kink and a very slight uphill end bit. How did I achieve it? Today lost 63.4 kg out of the back of the car (seat backs, bench, trim, spare wheel and sub box) Octane booster and B7T7F7 settings. 1/4 tank of fuel...

Okay, I'm off to the 'ring again in 3 weeks time and have started wondering about laptimes. Last time out I did a 9min 10 second lap (Bridge to gantry) in the wet, on semi-slicks, which is the equivalent of the lap shown below for the Porsche (with similar levels of traffic and mine also had a...

Finally fitted the LED rears. Much better than the stock ones for clarity. Always felt that the indicators on the rear OEM cluster were overcome by the brake lights and the LED's make a big difference in this respect.:thumbsup:

Just had a play against one of these and annhailated it completely. The guy in the 996 told me at the lights he couldn't even get close, so I was well chuffed to know he was trying. Came upon him on a wide country road with plenty of straights and bends. We were on a set of twisties with him in...

Okay, I don't go in for "road kills" much, but I am very interested in what my car would be as fast/faster than in a given situation. I also like performance testing (Dyno's, trackdays etc), so I bought this performance box to see what my car's performance is really like. Accurate to 0.1mph...

What are the times you have managed or would expect from K03 and K04 GTI's? EDIT:- started a list for reference purposes. Some of these will be approximations, but don't worry too much about it as I'm just trying to get references for each stage and stock. Let me know what stage of tune you...

Hi all, I'm in need of a little help. I have the DSG box in half at the moment and am part way through exchanging the OEM open diff for the Quaife ATB LSD. I would very much like to fit new bearings to the Quaife, but am struggling with the part numbers I need. Is there any way I can simply...

Upgraded the rear brakes this afternoon. Managed to get hold of some S3 rears - not painted yet and quite like the look of the black with the wheels anyway at this point. Fitted straight on, but unfortunately the S3 disc guards wouldn't fit, so I've ordered some Seat Leon Cupra ones that will...

Okay guys, I've just bought this kit at a really REALLY good price. VF Engineering exhaust manifold Garett GT2871R turbo with optional .86 AR exhaust housing VF Engineering downpipe adaptation flange (allows you to run a standard / standard fit downpipe such as Milltek etc) VF Engineering...

The Autotech Front drivers side bracket has snapped yet again This is now twice in under a year. The first time a replacement pair of brackets were fitted, yet one has still broken again. I don't know what to do now as they both catastrophically snapped at low speed whilst turning a tight...

Got a good deal on some 19" BBS CH with Goodyear F1 Assyms. Fitted Today. I love 'em:thumbsup: May put some spacers on the rear to fill it out a little too.

Bl***y carbon fibre badge!!!!!! I bought a front and rear badge and didn't send in my cores. I said my rear badge was an Edition 30 one and gave the part number for the badge. When the badge arrived, complete with a new latch mechanism....guess what? It was the wrong badge design!! You can...
