Well under $400 from Castle Hill Exhausts (prefer not to post exact numbers on forum, feel free to PM me)
Not the most helpful of people, but the workmanship looks pretty good.
Had a chance to push it to the red line, power feels like it holds better where it used to die off a little at the top end.
Happy with my recent 2.5" dump and full exhaust. increased power throughout the range, more responsive. and can hear a bigger woosh.

Considering Angel Eyes too... seen pics looks mean... and blacken the front vw logo.,
Definately more meat in the exhaust tone, but not sounding rice. The custom piping was well tuned, there is a slight increase in drone in the cabin but as light as I expected. Looks dead stock to the normal eye too.
So far the mods done are.
APR tune
BMC Filter
Coilovers
Whats still on the way is the SEAT intake and LIP.
Basically with the forge I mentioned I just placed a deposit for it (FMIC built to order, might arrive in 4 or more weeks :( )
Thats probably about it in terms of touching the car.
What sort of a prick hits your car in a carpark and doesn't leave a note :(
Only some scratches and a bit of their paint on my rear bumper ... but FFS people are **** to do that :(
Could it get any worse???
Over a month ago my airbag light went off on my lil polo. Took it to get scanned and it was addressed that my airbag harness needed replacing. Got that fixed and 3 days later the light came back on again.
Took the car back to vw and was scanned and investigated again, this time round it was the clock spring or slip ring that needed replacing blah blah. BUT oh no the part is on back order so you will have to wait 3-4 wks for it to come from germany. So here i am waiting and on tuesday i thought wow its been a while and noone has contacted me about the part.
I called in to VW and they service assistant said ohhh your booked in on thursday. My car was booked in without anyone informing me so lucky i did call in to see them. So i drop my car off this morning (got a golf tdi as a loan car) and went on my merry way. Went to pick up my polo today and my esp light is illuminated on the dash. Went for a drive turned the car off and on and it wouldnt disappear.
Arghhh back to VW, my car is staying overnight as the scan produced nothing and they dont know what is wrong!
YAY :( :brutal:
Drove for about 5-10 mins. then the service guy took it for a drive too and same thing it was still on...
