I'd want to make sure the car was running properly before tuning further, I'm going to start chasing more power soon but have spent a fortune over the last few months making sure that everything is as it should be. Just so you have an idea of what I have done:

- Cambelt/tensioners/waterpump
- Oil/filter/pickup pipe
- Spark plugs
- Fuel filter
- Rear axle bushes
- Air filter
- Brake fluid
- Brake pads/discs
- Wishbone bushes
- Temp sensor
- Thermostat
- Coolant
- ARB bushes

Now I'm happy that the car is running ok, I'm going to fit a FMIC, LCR fuel pump and then stage 2 map

Also just to give you an idea, if I'm on over run I can plant my foot in whatever gear I'm in and instantly get boost

THREAD JACK - probably answered before but what is the difference between the 007p and the 008p, ive got the 008p sitting at home whilst i wait for a new tip to show itself. is the 008p just uprated? got it at a bargain of 80£ and all

Will take a look into belt tensioner and engine mount bolts, will need to order them quickly however as its booked in for sat!

Gave it a full service so already replaced with genuine vw parts.
Oil
Oil filter
Fuel Filter
Pollen filter
Didnt use the flush as advised
Timing belt to be put on including dampner and water pump!

Will take alook at belt tensioner and engine mount bolts whatever those are and fitting 008p dump valve as its just arrived.

I have just put some vpower nitro in my car and may be a placebo but it seems to pickup a LOT better!

Seems to run a fair bit smoother low end and seems to pickup faster after 3k revs! Could just be the spark plugs however!

Either way going to stick with!

P.S 2nd at 30mph = rocket for what it is
