If you're willing to shoot down the M56 I can highly recommend Central VW/Audi in Ellesmere Port (0151 355 1246). Give them a call and speak to Simon. He really knows his stuff, is passionate about VAG and doesn't charge the Earth. I've been going to him for years, since I had my S3. Top bloke!

Bump...

Can anyone recommend a good paint or body shop in the NW area? I'm based between Liverpool and North Wales. I'm just after getting a couple of minor bits sprayed, and I've found in the past going with a recommendation is best... Thanks in advance, Rich :arco:

PM sent mate... :icon_thumright:

I had one on my Corsa Sport, many moons ago! It wasn't loud at all. In fact as it broke in it got less volume and more bass. Nice and subtle. I had the de-cat on as well. This, with a BMC CDA, gave a 19bhp increase on the rollers. Not bad I'd say! Rich

I believe the 225 is only different due to VVT. I could be wrong though! Rich

I thought I'd like to move to the 2.7T S4 if I ever needed extra space (kids or whatever), but otherwise I love my S3 too much. It does most things that a big car does but in a smaller package. Great for cruising up and down the country too if needs be. Rich

S3's have twin side mount intercoolers, Golf's and the like have a single side mount. This is why their inlet manifold points in the opposite direction... Rich

The iTunes are stored in its own format, although there is a folder where they're stored in WMA. Problem is it's time consuming getting them off because they're all in seperate folders...

I've just remembered I bought a LHD set off e-bay and bought the RHD accelerator from vagparts. Whoops! Rich

Is it compatible with iTunes? I'm quite tempted, got to admit!

You can buy a set...

I'm gonna get mine done in about 2k miles. Been quoted £260 inc waterpump. Looks like a good quote from what's been said above! Rich

I'm guessing nobody has tried the HPA longer gears then? lol! Rich
