    Custom Exhaust?

    Yeah cheers mate! I know what you mean, the car is super quiet haha, think I'll probs go for that middle pipe that gets rid of the two silencers and leave the muffler on if it drones a bit without it. Thanks for your help bud :icon thumright:

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    Done a decent amount since I last came on here! Eibach springs, K&N filter, EBC disks, stud conversion (for ease of taking wheels on and off!), Rieger Tuning diffuser, 5mm wheel spacers and mirrors changed to black. The photo was from a meet last week in Bristol. :thumbs up:

    1.4tfsi ticking noise

    I've had this strange ticking noise for 2 days. I originally thought it was coming from the area around the alternator but now it sounds like its coming from the back. I'll attach a video so you can all see what I'm talking about. Any idea of what it could be? *it stops when revved so it is...

    A3/S3 Suspension Variation

    I'm looking to fit Eibach pro springs with Bilstein dampers (listed to only fit an S3) to my 2014 1.4 tfsi. I assume there is no difference between the A3 and S3 suspension components apart from stiffer/lower springs on the S3 meaning i could fit the S3 Eibach springs. Can anyone confirm this or...

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    I'm 17 with a 1.4 (150bhp) 8V. Searched for ages to find decent insurance as i was being quoted around 3-6k all the time. I'm now with Go Girl which seems to be by far the cheapest at 2.4k. Would definitely recommend getting a quote.

    Exhaust options

    I have a 2014 1.4 TFSI S-Line with a K&N air filter. I’m debating what exhaust mod to go for as I’m not sure what will be best for performance. I’m wanting to go for a resonator and middle silencer delete with an OEM back box or a upgraded back box with OEM resonator and middle silencer as I’m...
