The 2 easiest/cheapest steps would be to buy the Miltek S/S exhaust with the 'Discreet' (or standard look) tailpipe & the 312mm front brake set-up from the Anniverasry/V6 4M/S3/TT etc,etc. :smiley:

 For the remap i would go with one of the well known ones revo, Costom code ect ect .Milltek cat back cant fault it at all real nice deep tone  :laugh: if you do want the exhaust to be visible you will need the v6 4motion rear valance - £48 from vw.

For your way on and for a remap I would recommend Chipped UK Dealer Mark he goes by the pseudonym  Chip N Spin for his remapping business and I can't recommend him enough.  If you want his details let me know.

I live in Oxfordshire and got a Revo Stage 1 Remap with VAG Techniques:

http://www.henley-vw.co.uk/

They are located in Henley on Thames not to far to travel depending where you are in Oxfordshire. Going back soon for Revo Stage 2.  :laugh:

I paid £399 + VAT so £468.

It is very easy to get to. Junction 6 off the M40. Through Watlington stay on that road. Right eventually at Nettlebed roundabout. Signposted to the right with some sort of farm sign. VAG Techniques is on the same site.

Owner of the companies name is Sean.

Rang him 9:00am on a Saturday said it was no problem and could do it that day. Went that day to get it done. Purchased an SPS at the same time.

I purchased my Miltek exhaust directly from an eBay seller and got it fitted by my mate.

Sellers store is: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Junction26M1-Performance-Car-Parts

Very professional ordered 10:00 am arrived early next morning. Cheaper ringing them directly. Also cheaper than Awesome GTi: http://www.awesome-gti.co.uk/ who are also very good.

Purchased the DV from Awesome GTI

Going to wait for the weather to get a little better then going back to have a 4 bar fuel pressure regulator fitted as well as the Revo stage 2 software.

Ive got milltek with visible twin pipes and the 4motion rear valance, IMO sounds real nice, Nice deep tone but not too loud!! If you drive normally cant really hear it, But kick her into the floor and you get a lovely deep note.  highly recommended  :wink:
