290bhp is a little disappointing  but that's just revo's figures, Apr wouldn't say what bhp they have achieved, but I get the impression there is a race to get these to market.

Not something I've done to my GTD yet, but something I've done FOR my GTD.... Ordered a DTUK stage 2 box. Should be here tomorrow then I can update this post to say it's something I've done :D

Put it/leave it on 4+1, unless you have overfuelling issues (I haven't, but someone (can't remember who) thinks they did and Andrew got them to put theirs down to 4+0. Maybe theirs is a one-off, or maybe using Millers with mine has stopped me having the same summer issues. You might get a regen very soon after putting it on (I did), but I have a regen about once every 800 miles now. You're in for a treat.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

That's exactly what I plan to do monkey. I really hope the box lives up to expectations

Did a few VCDS tweaks that I'd been meaning to get done. Changed indicator blink from 3 to 4. Tried to disable the ignition active warning but seemingly that option isn't there but did manage to active the boot lights for breaking.

Added bosch wipers to the front, and upgraded the boot light to LED. Hopefully glove box one turns up tomorrow!

Discovered my bro in law has a VCDS cable.  Went to town with the following:

DRLS 100%
Fog Lights for coming home
Chirp on lock / unlock
Turn signal adjustment

The coming home using the foglights looks really cool!
