Has anyone actually fitted one of these? on the 1.4 model? if so what did you think?

Cheers

Wouldn't waste your time or money. Engine is designed for a full recirc valve, will only bring you problems and engine managment lights up if not set right.

Exactly what Kenny said, if you want that sound buy a Scooby or Evo.

I have a Forge DV spacer for sale. Forge says they never had 1 problem from them. I have never heard of 1 problem from them in MK5s or MK6s.There is no setting it it is a spacer on your DV valve. You install it and its done. You get the Psssht sound but you can make your engine do it/not do it depending when you shift or let off the gas.  I removed mine only because I have a K04.
P.S I raced a chipped 2011 Mustang 5.0 2 days ago from 30 and it was a tie. APR K04 turbo Billy boat down pipe stock exhaust bald tyres.

it's not a gti. it's a TSI. they do sell them, check forge's website. they are built for the car and i can't see it being a problem just thought I'd ask for peoples opinions............... oh and I'd never buy Jap, thanks.
