« on: 29 June 2014, 16:50 »
Hi Guys,

I am new to the forum and the world of VW Golf GTI's.... I decided to buy a base mark 6 Golf GTI with 210 bhp :)

Straight away I dropped it off at TTS Roadsport for a full stage 3 conversation which the results are outstanding to say the least..

Then i decided to sort out the handling and the brakes

Wow, great build mate. Nothing like do things slow eh?  :drool:

Cant believe you have done it all in one go, bet it feels great now.

I can only afford a mod every month or two, but keeps the car interesting i guess.

What was the total cost for all the mod and labor if you dont mind answering....
MK6 GTI CSG | Revo Stage 2 | Revo Stage 2 Intake | Milltek 3" TB Exhaust | SuperPro Anti Lift Kit | H&R ARB's | Bilstein B12 | TT Short Shifter |Mintex M1144 Race Pads | HEL Braided Lines |

MK5 GTI - DSG + Extras (Sold because DSG was Soooo Boring !!!)

Hey Mate,

Lets just say I hope who ever does this has deep pocket, Not cheap! But what a difference, Its a completely different car.. especially as its neck and neck against a 4.2litre R8...

I think my car messes with peoples heads to say the least ;)

I figured i may as well do it all in one go as i'd end up doing it all anyway in time :)
