Shouldn't you be asking this on Briskoda you traitor!!!!! :grin:

TIP definately made a difference on my 1.8T. Had it fitted before remap along with 007p. Deffo seemed more urgent and intake noise was slightly more audible :wink:

My reason for fitting tip was performance not cosmetic, as I want stage 2 one day :rolleyes:

Want to make sure every component is as 'up to the job' as poss.. :smiley:

mmmm, im planing on geting the TIp plus the 5 peice forge kit, but im getting a stage 2 remap on sat, and then some wheels, so might be about 2 months before i can get the hoses!

do you think this will be a problem with the standerd pipes?
