Cheers for the heads up mkviken. And thanks Steve your right 8 weeks isn't that bad.  Just feels long because I'm so excited!!! Like a kid on Xmas eve! Haha  :grin:

Also, I'm considering a milltek cat back for the car. I'm guessing I'd have to wait for them to design a new one as the ed35 has a different engine to the standard gti? Anyone know any further info on this? And would any ed35 owners suggest an exhaust ( Simply for noise) or do the standard exhausts already make a decent noise??

Cheers

I wouldn't bother with the exhaust, the standard note is very nice.  If you're going to spend some money playing with it, get it remapped and then wait for the permanant grin.

I doubt the cat back would be much different from the 'standard' GTI version as with it being cat back I don't think the fact that it's the older engine matters.

I'm sure an expert will be along to correct me if I'm wrong though.

My 35 arrived in the UK and should be at the dealer this weekend  :smiley:  3 door black...can't wait.

Sounds nice mate. I was stuck between White black or red. But I think the gtis look stunning in White!   :shocked:

Did u go for the 19s or keep the standard wheels??

And Jim, I'll take your word for it then! And save myself a few pennies to put towards a remap. Thinking a bluefin when that's released for ed35 as it can be removed easily iirc?

I don't think you'll need to wait for the ED35 version to come out, as in theory its the same map as the ED30.  Give Superchips (Bluefin) a call and they can tell you straight away.

I drove a mate home from work yesterday who had a Miltek on his MK5 and he said he was really impressed with the note of the std exhaust, so i'd say stick with the std.

Taff_09 you're right the glendales do look good there, but tbh i like the 18s just as much. I'd rather save myself £600 and get a remap.  :cool:

Waiting at a junction today and this ED35 pulls up alongside. Window comes down and this guys says; "Very nice car mate. Fancy going to a quiet spot together?"......
How could I refuse!

AJ-Edition35; Looks mean with the bigger 19" wheels. Mine's the standard GTI but I speccd the Watkins dark steels.
