My new air feed came today so straight after finishing my last exam I came home and fitted it. Car feels much more response now. I had a big grin on my face
Anyway I wrote a little DIY guide:

Thanks
I know it ain't the most complicated thing to do but it's a good reference

That sounds most excellent
Mine is a little louder due to the Powerflow but otherwise almost identical - IMO for that noise it is worth every penny

Yes but little things like this help those that don't have a clue i.e me !! It's funny, I was happy to go gung ho and do a how to to change the sidelights (to which some might find daunting) but the air feed etc baffles me !

Not bad, I timed around 8.4. Had a little bit of wheelspin off the mark though. Before I got the BMC I timed it on that road at 8.3. When I fitted the BMC with the old feed it went up to 9 seconds

Just took them on some backroads near Aberdeen. Saw the fog and the cut down trees and had to stop for a photo

Finally colour coded my rear VW badge. It went from this:
To original badge sprayed black:
To original badge replaced with OEM black badge:
And finally, to this:
Looks much better and I'm chuffed I finally got it done as this was the way I'd always wanted it to look, rather than a big black splodge. Just finishing off the front one too!

Dude looks AWESOME!! Firstly how did you remove the rear badge from the hatch? Secondly how did you get it to stick back on?
