Sorry for the delay in updates guys

Right onto the boost leak i got to drive the car and boost is absolutely peeing out so i have ordered the revised lower boost hose and i had a dig around under the bay and low and behold i find one of the aftermarket creation boost hoses that was fitted by gt motorsport is not fitted correctly and in fact the jubilee clip was not even attached to the end that meets the charge pipe.
I had a go of getting it back on straight and tightening the clip back up but the clip just keeps slipping off the hose. At this point my bloody glass back decided to kick in and i had to leave it as it was.
Anyway i have the car rebooked in with a skoda specialist in stoke named tqc they are going to fit the new clutch and flywheel along with sort the upper 90deg boost hose and fit the lower revised hose at same time �� fingers crossed this will solve the boost issue

Next month i will be ordering the audi tt lower front strut brace to fit along with the upper brace and uprated dogbone mount.

I have also priced up replacing the suspension with oe items and it comes to £421 so iv seen a full kit by koni sr-t that lowers 20mm all round that comes in at £358 that looks as if it will be the choice when the time comes to carry out the job.
