    Power amd amp install and MMI

    Guys Have any of you guys fitted an amp driven by the OEM MMI car system? I'm not a fan of playing music loud to get bass, just decent low down power when I want it.

    RS4 rear ARB fitted

    Haven't tested it out in anger yet but very little difference noticed so far :think: Haven't changed anything else (shocks/springs) and not likely too as I find the cabby a lazy wallowy ride (after my Mk1 TT) anyway and the car handles well enough for the available performance
