ps. Neil how do you find the Yoko Advan's?

Yoko Advans are the best tyre IMO for the Gti
Awesome grip, very good in the wet aswell, a massive step up from the F1s that a lot of people rave about,
They make the F1s feel like ditchfinders  :wink:

Being ignorant now :rolleyes:

The VWR exhaust system looks like the Milltek system to me? would i be correct. Also i see VWR also do an Intake kit, Where does this come from (manufacturer) and is it any good?

I assume as it is all VWR stuff it will come at a premium? but can't find anywhere in the uk you can get it to find out what the costs are?

Cheers

Miltek do provide the vwr exhaust. And apparently is more toward the resonated (quiter) version. And itg is responsible for its intake, and from what I've heard that it provides great gain. APR's website do have a price list for most vwr upgrades.

i use ADVAN AD08's on my clio 200

theyre sh!t on the road (8" rim and 225 wide) but on the track they class



at croft yesterday and only once did i find the tyres getting greasy - backed of for 1 lap and they came back to me and it was business as usual.


road tyres on the track i get 2 fast laps and theyre jelly. advans really seem to hang on well


for the road i wouldnt use them though

I've Seen the VWR Cat-Back exhaust for a good price and it is very tempting.
Any good reasons not to go for it? It is Milltek so will be good and i doubt VWR would put their name to it otherwise.
Its currently priced on par with the Scorpion and Milltek.

Hmmmm............... Now all i need to work out is which Stage 1 to go for.

VWracing shop on the Bay of E.
Looks legit if anyone knows different it would be nice to know.
Im still trying to decide whether to map it first as it seems to be the reccomended course of action.

Thanks for that. I'm going for miltek catback or vwr catback and the revo stage1. That will be plenty for me in terms of power and nice exhaust tone. Only thing with a vwr exhaust is I think it's equivalent to the miltek resonated version. I will probably go non res.

Funnily enough, these tyres are tested as part of a tyre test in Evo magazine this week.
They highly rate these tyres, however they do not win the test but come 2nd overall......... with the F1s winning
