Same price as a remap which puts me off, especially after the issues with dtuk. However if it is a map I may be tempted

Is this basically a new map that's uploaded? I see they do one for the 1.2 tsi. Not that impressed with my dtuk tbh and it's just sitting chucked in a box. If this is a map then it should be better as it adjust/ monitors more than the dtuk box

Had same problem. Don't think there's a lot that can be done. I got one of these from halfords. Works a treat

Get the 1.2 Tsi the insurance shouldn't be much difference. 1.4 is an OLD engine and the 1.2 is sluggish if you do anything other than town driving so I would avoid it myself. Iv got the 1.2 Tsi and it's perfect mix for all round driving and cheap to run.

Email forge Motorsport they will no doubt have a dump valve in the works at some point. Air filter, if your after a panel filter k&n or piper cross will have one more than likely at some point. With the engine being pretty new will be a bit of a wait. Exhaust would be custom job if your looking ...

Mine packed up,sent back got a refurb unit. Seems ok now but I'm going to sell it and get revo remap

I've lowered cars before just heard the polo is a little tricky at the front

Right ordered my lowering springs and plan on fitting at weekend. Any good tips on fitting them, heard the fronts are a little tricky? Is it just case of removing scuttle panel 3 bolts at top and couple at the bottom and pulling the strut out?

For me it's cheaper to get from Awesome and I need some H & R springs so will order together. Last time I jacked the car up it looked like the sills would crumble so a worth while investment to save damage

Im guessing you mean these? These fit straight on the polo then? Would save bending the sills everytime I jack the car up

These are ones I'm looking at. FK will be a better bet over eBay special any day

I've been looking myself at cheap coilovers. If going cheap go for FK as they seem to have decent reviews with price in mind. Only problem I've found when looking is that cheap coilovers have little to no corrosion protection so will rust. And in the UK that isn't good. So I'm going to stick with ge...

Last time I jacked my car up I thought the points were made of cheese. Don't have axle stands so my life is in the hands of the jack and vw build quality need to lower the car so could do with knowing myself where to put some stands

Right I'm about to order some springs, H&R with the 40mm drop at rear. Don't think the Eibachs drop the rear enough tbh. However Iv seen some FK coilovers for £200 with mixed reviews and AP coilovers for £450. I don't do many miles a year so do I really need coilovers, and if I do are FK or AP g...

I'm still weighing up springs or coil overs. AP do some cheap kits rated highly. Not sure if they do just dampers or just coil overs tho may be worth a look. Awesome Gti do ST stuff as well
