Springs look fantastic Graham. Make sure you post a pic in the daylight  :smiley:

How are you finding 300hp?!

It's dark, but there she is

Nice, looking forward to a daylight shot.  Do you have DCC?  Can you comment on the difference with lowered springs?

I do have dcc but to be fair I haven't tried out comfort mode yet, will give it a shot tomorrow down the country lane to work. Initial reports in sport and normal don't feel any harsher so that's good.

300bhp is nice but the main difference in power as you see on the dyno plots is after 3.5k so normal driving isn't much different from std so it's very easy to live with

Nice Graham... How much is it lowered, 20-30mm? Are you using spacers on the wheels?
MK8 GTI Clubsport. Reflex silver, Estorils, and a few other bits.

25 on the front and 15mm on the rear according to the website but it looks pretty level to me. And yes I have 20mm spacers on the rears, don't really think the fronts need them, maybe 10mm but it ain't worth it imo

Got the same thing earmarked for my next mods  :smiley:

Sorry if I missed the details....which springs did you go for...??
Is the ride much harder than the standard ones.??

We lowered our Scirocco only 30mm but the ride became a little too hard really....I dont want to ruin the sweet ride quality of the MK7

Thanks

Eibach prolines, if you want to see how it looks they are the same springs that are on the milltek Gti so you should be able to Google some decent shots of it
