Forge do an intake for the 1.4tsi engine and it’s listed under the golf mk7 I think.

I doubt that will fit either.

Loads of 1.8 tsi golf stuff doesn't fit the 1.8 tsi in the polo.

Sorry it was me that wasn't clear.

Most parts that fit the golf do not fit the polo.

I was looking for induction parts for my 1.8tsi and most parts are golf specific so don't fit the polo.

So I'm guessing the same will go for the forge intake or any other golf ones.

God that’s a lot for a induction kit however it is real carbon fiber, maybe if it was more special and not a little polo 😂 Thanks for that tho :)

Are you expecting any insurance issues? If not, I may well go for it myself.

I’m not to have any issues with the exhaust. I think the remap and throttle box may add a touch but then next year when I come to renew I’ll be looking for modified car insurance as the more you do to them the cheaper it seems to be haha

Just heard back from RaceChip:
Unfortunately, we still don't offer any Racechip XLR for your VW Polo Blue GT.
The development process can take a few months before the XLR is released to assure you maximum performance and a safe drive.
Please visit back our website in a few months to check availability.

Some mods are on the cards.

Wrapped gloss black roof
Privacy Tints

I'm awaiting on some Gloss Black VW badges front and rear, bought also some LED bulbs for the DRL/Sidelights/Reverse lights and got some OEM number plate LED lights coming too.

Faye's very angry with the DVLA at the moment as she hasn't received her new V5 & we have carbon gel resin private plates to go on it which she's really excited for ha!

Cheers James :)

Ok guys, got the polo back after I made a stupid mistake and had to send it in to VW.

Here’s the new lights and badges after fitting them.

New plates in & installed some DRL LED’s IMO these are the best LEDS I’ve bought from a place so far that are not overly blue like most of the others you can buy on the market.

Yes before you tell me, I got the plates spaced like that on purpose, yes it’s illigal & wont pass MOT. 🙊

Looks very tidy good updates.
Do the drls leds or number plate lights cause bulb out warnng lights to come on? Or did you fit resistors?
All the ones I have tried do!
If not do you have a link to which ones they are please?
