hi guys,
just writing in from sunny australia, where everybody is in footie stupor!
( finals fever). love the site, guys!
anyway, i have r32 that i am seriously considering modifying.
i have been looking at doing an amd remap + eip cold air + schrick cam
+ milltek straight thru. i'm aiming at about 300bhp.
anyone got any views or opinions that they'd like to share?
i want alot more power and responsiveness, with understandly slight
compromise in drivability. i am very keen driver but also mature enough
to know better.

hey man,
i'm from sydney!
car is stocker - but i'm totally over the power, need MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how was simon's car relative to the standard one?
was there a significant difference?
how did it sound?
how lumpy was the idle?
how reliable was it?

Dubious

From what I saw it was a completely different car! I had an S4 Avant at the time which I think was slower than the R32 after the mods.
Unfortunately his car got nicked shortly after spending all the $ on it  >:(

You will have to ask him about the idle and reliability, but it definitely sounded great  8)

the car was awesome... it transferred power from the rear to the front like a MOFO.........
