I don't see much soot in all honesty buddy and well I also have a 59 plate Mini Cooper S on the drive at home what doesn't kick up much soot either.
Having said that, with a white car anyway, especially in this weather, it's nearly always dirty!!
Did I just read that right? Your TSI makes more soot that your TDI?!?

Heh there are even louder ones too. I have removed my blow-off valve got a bit boring for me but then again once you have the twintake and a fully exhaust bolted on the valve is more or less not there. all good though 
looking forward to ther other mods your going to add on.

On the side though, I'm doing the ICE install when I actually have some time to do it and it's actually dry outside!

Love every bit of that car!
Especially the wheels.
Any chance you'd give out how much it cost you in total [or in details] since stock?
Cheers mate
Sure no worries!
Car = 17k
Wheels = £250 (already had them 'in stock' just had to powder coat/get the lip painted.
Exhaust = 1k
Remap = £300
ITG = £200 (Thanks Poverty!)
Eibachs = £150
HPFP = £300 (Thanks Poverty!)
RS4 Injectors = £80 (ebay bargain!)
So all in inc Labour about 19.5k I suppose!
Thanks about it buddy!
Yep thats right, 1st service is due in about 3k miles so will get it checked out then!?!@Having said that, with a white car anyway, especially in this weather, it's nearly always dirty!!

I was thinking the same thing mate im planning on hybrid ko4 port & polisher etc but yea if you were to install the injectors there is no benefit for you...so keep them until you do a turbo swap (may just snag your turbo when the time comes matey hehe)

Got 235/35/19 Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's on the front now and the new Vrdestien's (spelling) on the back.
Ordered the Rev D dump valve today and the pocket for my Single DIN conversion. If I ever find time to fit these things I'll post up some more pics.
New wheels for the start of next year too I reckon!

Standard clutch is still in there, just. Slips very often though so it'll be getting changed to a sachs unit ASAP.
Once the modding bug bites mate, it's impossible to get rid of!!
