    Front strut brace is good, good addition to the RSB for grip, can't comment on it's impact with stock suspension.

    I didn't find too much effect from the FSB on my Polo GTI when I had it.
    Possibly abit keener to change direction, but don't know if that was me trying to find something.
    It looks great, but don't know if it really does too much for it in terms of handling.

    I got mine from forge motorsports uk website.

    Oh also, alot of people did the diverter valve before/with the chip due to the higher boost.
    I managed to get an APR R1 online for much much cheaper than what they sell it to you here. Don't recall where from.

    I recently did a tune on my car (Superchips) after 2.5yrs of ownership, got the turbo intake pipe and diverter (both forge) done at the same time and very happy with the result. I'm running standard air intake at present and yet to be convinced I need to upgrade that.

    I'm also running bilstein struts with H&R springs, and added a RSB when I did the tune, must say the car does feel more planted on bumpy roads with the RSB. I find the bilstein/H&R combo very good too, good ride quality and handles very well. My tyres are currently the let down.

    APR R1 DV is often cheaper from the USA, I got mine through North American Motorsports at the time they had an APR sale on and I ended up with it shipped for US$155. Arrived in 7 days from placing the order as well

    Ok so i got a fair bit to think about in terms of mods. Most people seem to be getting chip before anything else. I would have thought that exhaust/tune would have been done together. The Polo has Potenza RE001 tyres on the front and some continentals on the back. Just to let you all know though ETA is one hour! Leaving work early to go pick it up.
