« on: 02 October 2012, 00:13 »

so.. here we go

mk5 golf gti dsg in blue graphite
heated leather
rcd500
18" monza 2's
other little bits and pieces (boost gauge, revision d recirc valve)





pics of boost gauge







finally.. a little instagram, seems to be the common thing now lol


will be getting quite a bit of work done soon..

list of mods to do:
remove precat and decat / turbo back exhaust, probably milltek
twintercooler
intake
stage 2 custom map from rtech along with a custom dsg map
40mm lowering springs
spacer the wheels out slightly
5300k hids
re do window tints
new headunit, upgrade door speakers, small sub in boot.

let me know what you think guys! (and gals, of course :) )

Same here. You can spray a de-mister in them and get a decent glass polish for the outside. It helps no end...

bit of a weird one, i have noticed my boost seems a bit speradic at times, only just had the opportunity to video it,

is the kind of boosting in the video normal for a stock 2.0 tfsi?

thanks in advance

Have you replaced the DV for the uprated version from VW?

Yep, the stock one blew and vw uprated it under warranty to the latest version
