exhaust and forge dv were the first things i did, remap was supposed to be on the same day but they had issues with uploading the software and had to go back a few weeks later.

Mine was a 1.4 so couldnt do much, first mod was a sound system, then wheels, tints and a gti spoiler, then we all know what happened next  :laugh:
Will always love my mk4 but she had to go...225 Quattro TT in its place....but its still black (she lives on in spirit!)

take it you're just going for performance mods then?

i'd recommend getting bigger brakes after the re-map and before doing any further performance ones.

getting an MP3 capable system is essential too IMO

I think the rear aero (then the fronts) will be the first hardware changes I do.
