Hf Carbon intake

[Swattysin]

Haven't had any issues with my HG/HF Series CAI and APR tune. My APR dealer said they don't change the maps for CAI even if they offered one for polo.
As discussed in another thread HG/Bull X downpipes are LHD only.

Wow thanks for the down pipe heads up, I didn't think about that. As I was considering getting a cooler/exhaust form them as well. Wonder if the cooler piping/brackets are the same regardless of driving position, they should be. May still have to look at milltek for the full exhaust then. Going to order the HG CIA with pipercross filter soon, best intake I have seen by far.

On a side note, as they take so long to reply. I am looking at the prices on the HG website, I am assuming we do not pay the 19% VAT tax? So If I am looking at prices for gear its basically 19% less plus int shipping, that correct?

They were pretty good with emails when I bought mine.
I'm sure if you set up an account on the website it will give you the price exc. tax. but yes take off the GST.
From payment to receiving the intake took about 7 days.

If you're looking at intercoolers, I'd recommend checking out the Wagner ones, they say they bolt straight in with and use the stock piping. WagnerTuningUK - VW Polo. 599euro including shipping from Orange Tuning in Germany.

Milltek exhaust is the only one that guarantees it will be suitable for RHD, I'm going to the custom route to save some money.

Yep wagner were the coolers I were looking at actually. Spoke to Guy Harding about it post discontinuation of the 6R APR cooler. As for the milltek exhaust I have had quotes around 1200 pounds shipped from the UK, so around $2500aud delivered which was similar price to a custom exhaust here. Still I may order a muffler I like from the UK/EU and get the rest of the custom exhaust done here potentially. In my opinion the CIA's are still a rip off all around but will likely get it anyway

Let us know when you have any new information on the VWR tune. I suspect it would be similar to APR however not prepared to do anything till I see power graphs. Also any indication of the tune being compatible with most parts like HG or just VWR? I think VWR only make CIA for polo 6r and nothing else from memory.

Does anyone have an ETA on the oem+ software?

Whilst on the topic of tuning, if anyone is interested I got a quote on Friday for a APR Stage 1 tune for $1125 installed. Seems the APR pricing has been reduced recently.
