Default My Edition 30 Golf...

Yo guys.

Don't get much time to come on here anymore, but just been having a browse and thought i'd throw a few pictures up of my Edition 30 Golf seeing as there is a few VAG heads on here.

Had it about 8 months now and have got so much love for the thing, i wanted one for ages and searched for a while to find the right car, it had to be grey/red, plenty of options and obviously, DSG.

Obviously i've been messing round with and done some mods, quick speclist...

3" BCS turbo back de cat exhaust.
ITG intake set up.
Autotech uprated high pressure fuel pump internals.
R32 rear brake upgrade.
Porsche 996 front brakes.
KW V1 coilovers.

It's been remapped slightly by Rick on here but we are waiting for new DSG software so we can map the gearbox and then turn up the boost properly. Ricks work is immense and the "quick" remap he has done so far has proved to be awesome! It drives really nice, goes REALLY well and made 320bhp/320lb/ft on Awesome GTI's dyno's not so long back, so a genuine 300bhp with plenty more to come.

I'm off to the ring in it on Wednesday morning for a couple of days so i cant wait to get it there and see what its like!

Anyway, a few pics...









Oh and a little video of it on the dyno, i love the DSG pops as it changes gear!

Have a MK5 gti also all options apart from Recaro buckets had it 4years now reliable, decent pace nice cars, but DSG not for me. Was also put off with the Mechatronics failing.

Try and get an ED30 if you do. Hold their money better and ALOT more tuneable because of the K04 S3 engine.

That looks nice Rob, each to their own on the gearbox, some people love it, some don't.

No it was DSG, spec was pretty impressive can't find it now, the two boys who worked at statller's in sheffield both had them as well believe they were both over 400bhp and pretty mental.
