you're going to need to either really minimise all that butchery of the crash bar, or supply ready-modified ones with the kits. i see no throttle cable on that motor so have you made provisions for the map sensor?

I would highly recommend not using the Forge name so loosely as forge do not like copied items and you will be found and may end up in trouble. I can understand you want to produce your own kits for a good price but replicating is not the answer!

Sorry it's not the fact of using the Forge name as such i know people use it to get credibility to there products and of course forge is the best and most respected and respectifully price there items accordingly. I don't knock the fact that this guy is trying to make a product which could/will make a good impact on the market its the statements like >

i dont think your mocking it pal ???? i always accept pointers as eventually i do want to sell as many as poss to fellow 1.8t dubbers ive already done an exact copy of the s3 forge kit were roughly going to base the idea off that

Which can upset some people. Now i know some people at forge very well and they often say people try to replicate there stuff without permission etc afterall Forge was built up from a guy who once wanted to give people products at a good rate and has dedicated his life in doing so. They now spend thousands developing products for the 1.8t engines in every vag group going. Yes perhaps they could sell there products cheaper but they do offer a customer service second to none i say good luck to this bloke.

Fair do's but they asking top whack for an intercooler that is not considered the best, £600 forge, £400 for THS which is considered better due to how air flows top to bottom..

If you know guys at Forge, where's our mates rates discounts  :huh:  :grin:

Pretty sure this guy isn't the first to 'replicate' their products... How many replica wheels get mate?
