Look into a genuine ko3s and turbo intake pipe and you'll benefit much much more through a remap. The ko3 is weak! Definitly worth the extra £300 mate  :smiley:

Hi mr 1.8t dubbster,

I have same 99 1.8T found out few weeks back that I have a split in my standard DV so have been looking at the forge. You have the link of where you got yours from please?

Other question does the Forge make a loud noise or not? Didnt really want a loud noise from it?

Thanks

With a 007p, CAI and a remap mine was silly loud. If yours is standard boost it won't be as loud.
