looks a bit of a cheap one to be fair mate like pete said (raceland) paid about £175 for mine plus shipping.altho unless yours is broke which made me get mine i wouldnt bother no real power gains and a few people say they crack due the there strengh and the engine movement and they are suppost to give off more heat touch wood mines been ok but i would save the cash mate. -
thats where i was looking at the wizzard stuff seems to be a safe bet to go with. i was also told once that the safest way to use it was something on the pedal that only let the nos through when the throttle was fully open is this standard with the kits or is it still done with a button.
-
what would be the best kit to get also dont want to break the bank. just really for the strip got hooked after the last (run what ya brung) day lol. standard engine six branch ss system and filter also whats the purge kit all about and what do they do. cheers lads.
-
lol thanks exactly what i was trying to get across but couldnt be bothered in the end lol.
-
you cant say that then take it off lol lets say the people that might get easily offended do not watch. go on put it back on lol.
-
but thats my point (that little bit lighter) will make not alot of differance really.
-
to be fair your not really going to make the slightest bit of differance to performance are ya but cost your self loads of money like getting a light weight battery lol. and removing your cd changer its a vw not a race preped super car mate.

highsports or konigsports is it worth the extra money also is it worth getting the stainless steel bodies for an extra £50. -
