I dont have VAG-COM Really need to get it though.

Official site is this mate, http://www.ross-tech.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=VAGCOM

But I don't know which one you need to order. My mate has is on his laptop and the lead you need to connect it to your car by the cigarette lighter so I use that. I will ask him bud.

There must be downloads for it, but I've not looked into it myself. I should really get it aswell tbh

That looks a bit expensive

I thought you could get a cable from ebay for £20 and a free copy of the software that enabled you to do the logging ?

Yeah the cable's are cheap, http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=vag-com+cable&x=0&y=0

It's then just sourcing the software, if you can, for free
I'll txt my mate about his now see what he says.

Cheers bud. Ordered the cable, drivers and free version of the software on ebay for £8.45. If it doesn't work, it really doesnt matter for that money

Couldnt wait any longer to fit the Forge polished charge pipe so did it tonight

This is the old one and how it looked before... Pretty boring...

You can see the baffled design of the original here

Replacement looks more free flowing and more shiny!!

In progress of fitting it, brackets not on yet

All done! Very, very easy job to do, just a few jubilee clips and thats it really. Looks much better. All I need now are polished brackets to match the pipe and its sorted

Next up was to replace the standard 007p green spring with the uprated yellow spring. So out comes the green one...

And in goes the yellow. This should help it hold boost better.

Overall really pleased except for the slight scratches that were on the pipe when I got it

Took it out for a spin and it seems to spool quicker meaning the power is there quicker and there is a slight noise increase too I think. But its a bit hard to tell when I haven't driven it for a week

Good work Adam! Are you going to get the brackets polished aswell or leave them?

Will look forward to the day I have a polished charge pipe so I can be all flash, lol

Really easy to fit, took 30mins if that! And I was going slow to make sure I didnt scratch it lol

Got it from Damian @ DPM Performance

Hmmm... Not usually a fan of stickers, and it is quite big, ill have to have a think about it. Cheers for the idea though

Do you NEED a map sensor pipe with your setup mate?

Dont think so, just thought I might as well replace it while Im at it as I read the standard one is a twisted shape and a bit restrictive. Cant do any harm can it was only £30...
