Re: Polo 9N3 GTI - Build Thread *Black and Purple*
I see my car as a project so im willing to spend alot on it really to keep going with it 
ive been looking around a few site at what youve suggested, and a few other posts and i think im looking to go in this direction...
- Forge 007p / Forge 008DV (whats the differnce between these? any preference, or different gains?)
- Forge TIP ( is this it? http://www.awesomegti.com/car/vw/polo9n ... -hose-1-8t if not can someone link me to one? )
- Forge FMIC
- PD160 Air Intake
- Milltek Exhaust ( I need some advice on this, as when i look at it anywhere on the internet, it says you need a stage 2 remap with it, is this true? as arent there are people on here that have the milltek that arent stage 2
- Panel Filter / Induction Kit ( I already have a green panel filter but is this the best for it, or should i get a full induction kit, like the K7N 57i etc?
I also want to get it remaped at R-tech, but when is best to do this? and is there any order the above should be done in?

Re: Polo 9N3 GTI - Build Thread *Black and Purple*
It's best to do everything then get the remap, then they can work with the mods you have to get you the best result
The only problem I can think with the exhaust is that when you upgrade the cat or even go for a de-cat you will trigger the EML because the emissions will be all wrong, if you're just getting a cat-back I can't imagine you'd have any trouble

Re: Polo 9N3 GTI - Build Thread *Black and Purple*
Well I was supposed to have an update tonight as I bought some purple sidelights and got some purple film to tint my fog lights too, but one of the bulbs was faulty and turns out it blew a fuse in the car, and I don't have a spare fuse :/ and then because of that it killed my mood to do the fogs, so now I've just got to wait for some new bulbs and hopefully I'll do the fogs tomorro if I can be bothered on a Friday night,
I'm also toying with the idea of doing my wing mirrors purple? Thoughts?

I've got a full turbo back milltek for sale if your interested mate!
also if your going to edition on sunday, please pm me!! (not related to above! lol)
EDIT - p.s you don't need a stage 2 to run the milltek exhaust, you can have it at any stage, but to have stage 2, you would need a decent exhaust system!

Re: Polo 9N3 GTI - Build Thread *Black and Purple*
purple wing mirrors you say?




Re: Polo 9N3 GTI - Build Thread *Black and Purple*
Can I be honest? ... I don't like this theme - the only way this purple theme is going to work against black is if you go full on euro and tie it in with the wheels IMO.
Hey, each to their own though and if you like it that's all that counts.

And I really like it, its different from everyones elses standard red stripe on here, just wanted to mix things up abit
Re: Polo 9N3 GTI - Build Thread *Black and Purple*
More than happy to be proved wrong - i think changing the caliper colour may help as they look out of place.
