    It is obvious you don't not know anything about modifications so please stick to things you do know something about. An intelligent modification includes many many many more things that just power .... your attempts at scaremongering are just ridicilous and laughable ....

    For heaven's sake Sharkie, we were only trying to help the OP, who seemed to appreciate our help by the way. Personally I couldn't care less what you do to your vehicle and I certainly wasn't trying to scare anybody, just to inform and so allow them to make their own informed decision. Just because people disagree with you doesn't mean you have to start getting into a personal slanging match.

    And right there the bull***** & continues ..... I suggest you have look at this thread again from the beginning and see who actually provided the OP with information that suited his original post and who from the beginning started correcting him, pointing him an another direction and when you did not like the information provided by others starting attacking their information and slanging their experience and knowledge.

    Its clear the OP wanted to modify his car and if you don't like that sort of thing, fine, just stay out of the discussion as you then obviously have nothing worthwhile to contribute.

    Hang on, mate.
    Maybe we (and other people) should care what he and others are doing to the vehicle because he is driving on the public roads. Highly modified car will also produce more pollution, which as a daily ride is not good for the environment as well. Lets bring the law that when you increase the power output of the engine in your car by certain amount it cannot be driven on the public roads. I think I'm going to see my friend who is involved in politics.

    I don't think we have much to fear from your "friend who is involved in politics". If his grammar is anything like yours the legislation would be null and void. Apart from the fact I (and 99.9% of other enthusiasts) would hardly consider the OP's list of potential modifications as "highly modified".

    Well done gentlemen ! This feeble attempt at sarcasm really lets the strength or rather lack thereof of that half a brain shine through ...

    Unable to mount a valid argument with any real technical merit you resort to sarcasm ... not even realising that even that has a gaping big technical hole in it ..... and to make it worse its not even a good attempt ....

    Your conduct in this thread has not at all been to your credit, in fact you probably don't realise that the majority of people on this forum are actually enthusiasts who enjoy their cars and have quite an interest in modifications, and by your actions you've probably alienated a large proportion of them. (well those that could be bothered to read a Tiguan thread anyway).

    Keep up the good work, from here on it can only get better, or is it a case of "how low can you go" ?

    You fear already, otherwise you wouldn't respond like you did.

    Wow people like you really do exist outside of "Today Tonight". I now understand that I really should not upgrade my wheels to 19s so that I don't suddenly veer out of control and run into the first childcare centre I see.

    I will have to remove my aftermarket air filter as well because all that extra induction noise is scaring away all the local fauna.
