Got APR Engine Mount Replacement for Polo GTI‏ fitted today at volkspower. There is quite a significant amount of vibration at idle or in neutral. Still trying to get used to driving with it.

same happened when i had mine installed after a week or so it softened up just a wee bit and didnt make it rattle so. felt alot better after that.

Fitted the PD160 Intake (thanks Gti Dave) last night at 3am under complete darkness in my garage...in hindsight it wasn't the best idea (dropped my phone into the engine bay while using it as a light

)

Contrary to what some say I did feel an improvement in the mid range and top end and the spooling sound is louder.

On another note I changed back to stock wheels and tyres from my S3 rims (now for sale - look in the F/S section) that were running 215/40 tyres. I've lost some steering sharpness and overall grip...new set of rims can't come soon enough...

The extra poke and tread width, as well as tyres would make quite a difference...

Do you notice any difference in the ride feel (suspension working over bumps and uneven ground)?

Please enlighten us with what your next wheels will be...

Hopefully of the lightweight/BBS kind...but I'll be getting the tune done in a few weeks hopefully so the wheels will be sometime after that.

The ride quality is a bit harsher over road imperfections but that's to be expected when running 40 profile tyres and heavier wheels (I'm still on the stock springs and shocks though).

I found that you do get a sharper and quicker turn-in especially with the RSB and the car holds it's line without washing into understeer compared with the contis.

Which chip are you going for?

I noticed in your sig, you have a Forge front sway? Is this the Front strut brace?

**jasonc23** · 27-03-2010, 11:33 AM

Yeah it's a front strut, maybe I should make it more clear lol

Regarding the chip I'm not too sure yet, leaning towards APR just due to the fact it's the one most people have but I'll go trial them all and see what's what.
