Hi mate, Drop me a PM with an offer and we'll see where we are.

No interest before it reluctantly goes on to ebay and Gumtree? Fits all 2.0 tfsi engines for any other VAG owners lurking about.

Unfortunately the noise just isn't for me anymore. I prefer the more subtle sounds of the cars standard induction setup. Great bit of kit though

I have for sale an Autotech induction kit for a 2.0 tfsi. It's been fitted for around 6000 miles and was purchased from garage midnight in January. Excellent condition and fairly easy to fit. Instructions for fitting are available on the Autotech website. Also includes the stainless steel heat shield which was purchased separately also from Garage Midnight. Link to item http://www.garagemidnight.com/collections/engine-air-intakes/products/autotech_2-0tfsi_cai Looking for around the £100 mark posted. Rich

Lumpy idle and juddering from low revs
RichVRS777 replied to angrymuppet's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
What about changing to the red top coil packs? Mine certainly idles smoother since fitting them although I didn't have a particularly lumpy idle in the first place. http://www.awesomegti.com/car/skoda/octavia2/red-ignition-coil-pack-set-2-0tfsi -
Revo, Bluefin or Shark?

Give Shark a call and ask. At least you'll get a straight answer straight from the horses mouth. They're really helpful. -

Yup. Looking pretty sweet!! Not quite as nice as that green scirocco outside though. That looks an absolute machine!! -

This was an option for me. Initially the price was the biggest point, however with the Revo winter sale and the offer of free fitting on the DV and coil packs there wasn't much in it. On another day Revo may well have won out... -

So yesterday I travelled to Mansfield and had the remap installed on my car. Whilst I was there I changed out the coil packs and the DV. With the snow being reasonably heavy in and around Hull it's been difficult to really gauge the difference however I did have a play on the way home yesterday. First impressions are good, acceleration is much more progressive whilst remaining smooth but sustaining right through the rev range. It doesn't quite give you the shove in the chest surge that I expected, when I had my Focus ST remapped the difference was night and day and the power increase was glaringly obvious that said it transforms the car from a sensible family car to a hot hatch more than capable of holding its own. All in all its £300 well spent. -
Too late! If anyone drops out I'll have one!

ez lips. anyone recomend them as a front splitter?
RichVRS777 replied to mikejay's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Postage is another £28 on top of that. Might as well just get an LCR splitter from your local seat dealer for 40 notes. http://www.seataccessories.co.uk/search,i.html?q=1ml805903
