The car has a CAMS log book that allows it to be entered in CAMS / FIA sanctioned tarmac rally events in the M2C2 classification.
Which is
M2 = Cars having a 0-60mph acceleration time from a standing start of 4.8 to 6.8 seconds in standard form.
C = Contemporary 1998 Onwards
2 = Capacity 2501cc to 3500cc
The CAMS Modern Tarmac Rally rules are pretty strict on what you are allowed to do to the car so unfortunately any FI option is out. There are still some options open in the rules for NA mods so I will investigate these but I'm pretty much at the limit of what's allowed for the modern class (EG: No after market cams allowed, no FI, No after market headers etc)
Thanks to the following companies for their on going support and excellent service.

Ive never heard of this mod?OEM DSG Intake and Airbox to meet CAMS specs (larger intake than AU version)
any pics? part numbers??
It is the European MKIV R32 DSG Airbox and intake, the airbox looks almost exactly the same as ours though the intake pipe is a larger diameter. No pics sorry.
I'll get the part numbers from Graeme today when he is up and about as he ordered the parts for me and I will post them up. As a side note we tested the grams per second of air intake with Vagcom while using the BMC and then with the OEM DSG intake and airbox and the difference between the two was negligible.
Cheers Al
