AUM Turbo
« on: 21 March 2010, 09:22 »
Hi guys,

I am sure this has been covered before, I have searched before anyone suggests it but:

I went along to my local VAG tuning company the other day and they told me that the KO3s only came on the Anniversary model and not the late AUMs.... I've been told and have from the threads i've looked at, suggests that I have the KO3s on my 2000 aum?

Can anyone confirm this or tell me otherwise?

Cheers

Lol, I thought I was right but didn't want to argue as I might have been out of my depth.... they gave some good advice and I thought an expensive Revo quote.... can't name and shame its not right and I'll probably get grief!  :lipsrsealed:

fair enough but they will just get away with giving bad advice

Phone R-Tech for a remap quote  :wink:
