Nice find. Now we know they ain't started development! Tempting - I live 20minutes from Derby, not sure I could be without my pride and joy for a week though...
-
Will it be any different to the Gti one they offer at the moment, well from the cat back anyway.
-
when I e-mailed them they said they were developing a bespoke downpipe for ED30's cars producing over 300bhp..

That explains it then, ta for the info. :smiley:

If I lived there, I'd do it! One week, but then Milltek exhaust! :cool: It's worth the pain.

the original exhaust in GTI Edition 30 is 4 mm wider than that on GTI. THat is from the factory.
Also, you can "overclock" your Edition 30 to 330hp already (see Oettinger for example) and surely even more.

I must admit its tempting, especially as I'm going to pay for one when its released anyway, I'll drop them an e-mail to get some more info.

I spoke to the reps at Inters on Saturday. The Ed 30 full system will be more like the S3 system with a larger bore all the way from the downpipe through to the back end. The Standard GTI and the S3 systems were on display side by side at the show and I could see a considerable difference in the whole diameter of the system from end to end. Even the exhaust tips were slightly larger :drool:

as it should be, since already from the factory the pipe is 4mm wider on 30 compared to GTI. The turbo is larger, as we know, so that's why.
The tips will be 90mm, I believe, instead of 76mm. I think they will look awesome!!!
Can't wait when the system is developed... :drool:
P.S. I have ordered Eibach Pro-Kit and Eibach rear anti-roll bar to be installed by my dealer before I get the car. :nerd:

Hmm....You'll have to let us know how the car feels with the Eibach's fitted. I guess you'll not really be able to make a comparison as you'll have had them fitted from new :undecided:

Actually, now I'm wondering if I even should install ARB, and if yes - then both front and rear. :undecided:
Is the suspension absolutely the same on GTI and Edition 30?

Now that's another conundrum!
I've heard that the ED30 has uprated bushes, but it hasn't yet been proved either way to my satisfaction. The general concensus is that the suspensions are the same in both models.

They must have done something with the handling of the car, it feels better and harder on the road then the ordinary 200ps GTI.
And juni 29th i will be fitting my K.A.W springs,25mm drop
Il report to you then :wink:
-
Yeh the ed30 feels totaly diferent to the std gti! even the dealers think so!
-
I'm gonna go for both ARBs (thanks to RedRobin for clearing this point up) and Pro-Kit springs.
I will not be able to compare, true, but my dealer fits all the parts, and the dealer is a long time certified ABT tuner, so I feel they'll do the job right.
I only hope ARBs are not a waste of money, in the sense that factory-installed ARBs may be of the same thickness! :undecided: I hope not.
Eibach ARBs are 26mm front, 23mm rear.
