dubloke - yeh but as i have a highline i had to figure a way to use the pipe....in the end i had to remove the carbon canister but its still a tight fit
after i installed my bmc i felt that it lacked a little power but not much....but didnt fit the air pipe....now i have fitted it and the car drives alot better giving it a better sound too
my insurance company also asked the same thing but vw wouldnt give anything so went and got a clifford cat 1 approved alarm fitted wid the certificate.... now they are happy
i used to have a 5 door also but felt that the 3 door is better and i believe they are lighter too. a bit of a hassle for the passengers but then who cares
