    Smile What order would you do your mods in

    As I am about to get my new polo gti, i've been thinking about what mods I should do.

    If you where to do a polo gti from scratch, what order would you do your mods in. some reasoning would me good too

    Maybe even list your current mods and would you have changed what order you did them in?

    Well if I was to ever do it all again I would go as follows.

    Front and rear sway bars along with front suspension bushes while ur at it.
    Improved exhaust and Intake
    FMIC
    Flash
    better suspension
    312mm Brakes

    1) Flash

    Then if you want more power go to downpipe / FMIC.

    If you want better handling... suspension and bushes etc

    Unless a mod is pre-requusite for another, I would go bangs for bucks first..

    As you appetite for mods (or car) may change..

    Flash is first mod, has to be.

    My Downpipe was $1100 or something (got everything at once so I can't remember).

    Up about 8kw on just the flash, FMIC adds about 4 or 5 as well. Together they would be good.

    depending on who u went with grant for the flast like if u went custom codes u could get the flash done to suit those mods rather than having to redo it later
