    1999 mk4 black magic GTI - 1.8t with an ecu remap (dont know which company - previous owner did it in melbourne) running 16psi, custom downpipe and exhaust, red/black recaros, sunroof, big stereo, montreal's in bridgestone rubber, k&n pod (in stock airbox with larger intake pipe)
    i think that's about it.

    RRP of $660AU, get them from here for $330. I just got these on but I think i'd go lower. But they do handle great!

    yeh i thought about the pro kit but only a 15mm drop! i want about 30mm to get rid of most of the arch gap hey

    possibly coilovers in the futre i think.. for now i'll focus on performance mods.

    any thought on the APR TIP? does it do anything or is it just a placebo effect??

    Yeah the car doesn't really look any lower, but performance wise the suspension is awesome! Though I have already thought about different springs...
    Out of the exhaust, TIP and suspension the suspension is the best mod. I don't know how people can say that a turbo back is to loud, if anything the APR system is to quiet!
    The TIP, well it's there, I don't know if it made a huge difference. The car does feel a bit more responsive, but I don't know if that is due to the exhaust or the TIP.
