My Mk7 GTI PP....turns out I cant resist the VAG.

Here are a few vids of the CTS catback in case anyone was interested to hear how it sounds. Note that I also have an aftermarket downpipe, but the sound difference from stock downpipe to aftermarket was minimal.

I didnt want to hoon too much in the driving video as businesses were still open and cars were driving around etc, so its a pretty tame. I’ll grab another video on the weekend when there is hardly anyone around and I can give it a proper bootfull etc.

Hi Lucas,

It looks sooo cool with the new steering wheel! I’m really fan on the OEM+ look/vibe.

Btw, where did you get the dead rest pedal?

This one is a direct replacement for the factory plastic pedal. There is 1x small bolt/screw holding it in, and then it just slides out. Takes 5 mins to change:

Wow, that steering wheel is thicker for sure. Is the thickness set, or can you specify it to be a bit thinner, do you know?

If you email Eurozone you might be able to request different options, but its not listed as an option on the webpage. I just ordered directly off the webpage.

Now that ive driven with the wheel for a week it feels normal now, I love it.

Great to hear, it certainly looks very good, I'll have to go down this path one day.

Kind words - thanks.

New mod(s) just purchased so will update with pics and info once they arrive. In the meantime I am loving my new steering wheel. Love seeing the red strip at the top when you approach the car too.
