Ha-ha, bring it on then fella, anytime you`re up Merseyside way.  :grin:

Got a good mate in St Helens, that close to you ? I could get to his one weekend if you wanna sort something out soon ?

This thread rocks

Yes its getting intresting???  :wink:

No its not.  Its boring

Christ, I'm a sipper of the devils fuel but even I know that going from a 230bhp to 170bhp car you're going to notice a lack of fizz.  Power delivery between the two cars is totally different.  Also running around London I'd doubt you'd see much benefit of a diesel as they're rubbish for short, start / stop journeys

ive been impressed with revo on the ED30, and those claimed gains for the GTD will put you on par with a standard GTi

the increase in torque is huge and will hopefully give you that zipiness back that you are missing

i believe VWR in Milton Keynes are now Revo agents so hopefully you can retain your warranty if you go with them.

Would still wait a few thousand miles before mapping - get it run in first - 900 miles is too soon to start jumping to conclusions

it took me 5k miles to get use to DSG, I hated it at first and thought about swapping, but after giving up on D and S and using the paddles all the time i have adapted and now love it
