Exhaust replacement 2.0tsi VRS?
CHoper5 replied to DutchVRS's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk IV (2020 > )
Hi all.. so has anyone got one of these (Non Resonated (Louder) OPF/GPF Back System) fitted to their car yet? https://www.milltekexhaust-roadrunnermotorsport.co.uk/4525-milltek-exhaust-octavia-vrs-20-tsi-245ps-mqb-evo-mk4-hatch-estate-opfgpf-models-only-particulate-filter-back-exhaust-ssxsk29.html , would love to know if it really makes a difference.. or if they have any footage of the sound it makes when running.. Does it invalidate the warranty and how much would it roughly cost to get fitted? Would love to know more and if there are better alternatives.. Cheers Chris -

Cool thanks.. yes does seem like a an expensive solution .. and a real shame to have to do it at all with a new exhaust on a new car... -

Hi there, has anyone finally got a solution to the poor exhaust sound of the Octavia VRS? I still can't believe the stock set up is so tame.. even. just a bit more Focus ST would be nice.. ; ) -
Great combo.. that Dragons breath is a fab colour.. though does divide opinion!! Hows the ride on those wheels.. are they 19inch? : )

Columbus unit powering off an on intermittently
CHoper5 replied to chrislo's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Hi all.. mine does this too.. its a 2013 Columbus.. what options are there for replacing this unit? Is it worth doing.. it mainly crashes when an android phone tries to bluetooth connect.. but also intermittently.. Also my startup screen /skoda logo is distorted.. would this be a software issue..? If so can you update the firmware easily? I recently had the latest maps installed with latest official skoda map set (problem existed b4 that), hoped. that would fix it.. but no joy.. sorry so many questions but its a real shame as the rest of the cars been great! : ) Pics here: -
Look lovely..are they the same as these? https://www.performancealloys.com/borbet-lx18-black-matt?pcd=5x112+5xXXX+XxXXX What tyres are you running on these?

VRS TSI Exhausts Choices ?
CHoper5 replied to Jack Jumpin's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
@cswrighty Sounds lovely and thanks for the detailed posts.. have you still got the car/setup? If so what is it like a few years on.. what was your experience with it all so far? Cheers Chris -
Cool thanks @Adaminski : ) Were they difficult to fit.. i bet getting the original; ones off is tricky? Cheers Chris

Black badges etc look great @Adaminski is this an aftermarket spec or can you get them supplied on a new car?

Firmware and columbus map update
CHoper5 replied to CHoper5's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Ok thanks so much. I think I'll wait and see how things go when it's next in for a service.. I don't want to break anything! I take it I can't then just update the maps without the firmware? Thanks again for all your help : )
