    Send a PM to Sharkie, I sold him a flange a month or so ago and he has sold the car now. I wouldn't be so bothered about stainless. My DP and system is coated mild steel.

    Yeah i'm not too fussed myself, I've got a stainless cat and my fabricator said he can weld it to either mild of stainless but he has a bunch of 2.5" stainless lying around. Are the mild steel flanges easy to get hold of? I'm so used to everything being garrett!

    The fella in Caboolture that did mine had a few cut. I'll see about getting you one if you like. Be later in the week though.

    incremental power gains won't make you fast, except for on freeway onramps.

    go suspension & federal RSR's.

    I've went SeatSport as Gavin and Anthony spoke very highly of them and from a dyno day earlier this year (or was it last year...), they did back to back tests on a dyno with various cars and set-ups, measuring actual and requested boost, inlet temps, etc, etc, and the SeatSport performed very well. THS cores are near identical, but I believe thicker. I went with custom piping, again with Gavin's input. Gavin may have some excess piping kits available, with the equipment all tried and tested by a handful of us.
    Track Car: 06 Polo GTI Red Devil mkII
    Daily: 2010 VW Jetta Highline
    Gone but not forgotten: 08 Polo GTI

    I have some MAP sensor pipes, but it wouldn't take me long to get the rest of the pipe work in if requested.

    All ready have upgraded springs and shocks, RSB, LCA bushes and bigger brakes so am sorted in that department . Have had RSRs and don't really think they are worth the money IMO.
