Good work there mate :) Nice g/s gain too! I might uprate my TIP one day now if I have the car long enough and can justify the expenditure...

On the exhaust, good choice!! Getting mine fitted in just over a week with a stage 2 map. 3" downpipe all the way! :)

Just bought the cable off ebay for £8 and installed the free version of vag com! Simples :)

They is a ridge on the turbo inlet that they go into, they dont have to be mega tight, just fit into that groove and hold it in place. I was surprised at the amount of space to get an allen key in there too. Didnt take long at all

That TIP looks sweet!

Cheers bud !! :D

can i ask how much the tip was delivered mate and do you no if bill does different colours.

After a red one like me Wayne? :)

This is what I bought mate: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330399696070#ht_3874wt_905

Comes with the freeware version of vagcom on the disc or you can download it online.

The sports cat came with the car, think its not great tbh... bit old. Will be replaced with a full turbo back miltek exhaust soon :p

Adam do you think that vag-com would work with a 2005 LCR? As it says from 1994-2004 on their ebay page...:shrug:

When you getting the Milltek done any ideas? 1 week today mine will be getting done right now lol! :D

So I didnt like the look of the ugly washer bottle in my bay so decided to do something about it. Its the creamy coloured bottle at the bottom left of this old pic:

Went to halfords and got some matt black paint and grey primer.

Took the bottle out and gave it a good wash down

Masked it up and gave it two coats of primer and two of matt black paint

And all done! Bit of a faff getting it to go back in, and slighly scratched the back of it but you cant see it from the front.

Looks much better imo, exactly the look I wanted :D Coolant bottle next !!

and tom not at 170 quid i ant make me own for about 30 quid.

Yeah the price is putting me off tbh, and not 100% convinced by it yet... Hoping someone has one at the amd RR meet..

Speaking of which, Adam do you fancy the rr day @ amd?
