[OldSpeckledBen]

Go for the Milltek Twin Exit! it looks Oem but slightly bigger

Oh right, i don't know why but i thought the twin one was for the pre facelift bumper only

 

[knight85]

oi...it aint that big

i think it looks pretty good, its not that big when you see it in the flesh...the exhaust not the arsehole lol

if you get one...has to be the full decat system...cat-back doesnt make much change

I look forward to the 6th to see it and hear it

I was wondering which one to get either cat back or the full system but you have just told me what i wanted to know

got some vids if u wanna hea rit...somewhere in my readers ride? the noise is addictive

sorry phil for clogging your thread

 

[thePHILosipher]

dont worry about it fella, the more info the better, helps me decide on my next mod

I know this is me being piccy but my bloody headlamp washer is knackered again, so thats going to get fixed, i just hate the feeling that something doesnt work.

so my list as it stands is:

• Springs + tracking
• New front right tyre
• Headlamp washer repair
• Remaining tyres replaced
• AND Lastly whatever i have cash for , be it exhaust or double dinn. This site has sparked some interest, found it on tdisport, theres some TASTY VW double dinns on here http://www.oemretrofits.co.uk/satnav.shtm

cheers guys, mucho appreciated

 

[OldSpeckledBen]

Looking good , at least you've still got a bit of ride comfort, unlike coilovers, especially with the state of our roads at the moment

 

[thePHILosipher]

well this is it, and considering im doing the best part of 86 miles a day, i need a little comfort, and it looks good

 

[BeezaDave]

mine was black tho so i could hide them

 

[thePHILosipher]

did they work??

 

[AndrewJB]

Yeh

 

[thePHILosipher]

Yeh

might have to invest and get them colour coded so they arent as noticeable.

next up for the car is some new rubber in the form of 2x falken 912's unless i can fine uniroyals or dunlop sp sport maxx's at a good price.

and new floor mats, i keep meaning to order them, as mine are torn to pieces ,

both of which are going to have to wait until next month as i buggered up the ££ this month and have very little left now

 

[AndrewJB]

Ive got Falken 452's
