What mod next???
« on: 20 September 2011, 16:56 »
Hi all, ive started to mod my 1999 gti 1.8 t, ive bought a cold air induction kit and cleaned out the TB and its made loads of diff to the performance.
 Im just wondering what to do next apart from the obvious of a performance exhaust or re-map? any suggestions? :smiley:
