Hello from Sweden. My name is Richard and im 31 years old and this is my car, its a octavia VRS 2007. I bought it new last year. The futureplans for the car will be lowering(springs) and tuning(270-280 bhp), also Porsche 352 mm brakes. More pics will come:). The mods on the car now is K & N airfilter, Milotec sportsgrill and powdercoated wheels.

Thanx:)

Very nice, bet it'll stop with those brakes.

Liking the black wheels on silver too :)

What are you intending on doing to the car to get 270-280bhp?

PS. Little tip: rather than thanking everyone with individual posts there is a 'Thanks' button in the bottom right hand corner of every post you can use :thumbup:

Good tip about the "thanks":thumbup:. To get to 270-280 bhp i will uppgrade the softwere(dont know if it is spelled right),install a k&n airfilter(already done), 3" downpipe and racecatalyst and the catback will be original. About your car, love the stripes. Have you done something to it? Because im new here i havent yet had the time to read about the cars on this forum.

Have done a fair bit of modification to my car + there is loads of information on here but to give you an idea as to what is needed for 280bhp click and drag accross my signature area and all will be revealed! ;)

Ok, i see what u have done to your car:thumbup:. I talked to the tune up company here in Södertälje and they said that with the mods i have planned i will get around 270-280bhp,but im guessing it will be somewhere around 270bhp. It is still a pretty new car so i still have the new car warranty so i dont know if i dear to uppgrade the softwere just yet. Offcourse the tuners have their own warranty if i decide to do it now but...i dont think i can wait any longer:D.

By the way, remapp, is that when you uppgrade the softwere? In my case from 200bhp to 250bhp.

Loving the look

Yup, a remap will alter the software on your ECU to give you different settings and ultimately more power, in your case I would expect to see an increase of around 35bhp to 40bhp.

To be exact it will give me 45bhp:).

I very much doubt that Richard, experience has shown that at the very best you'll see +40bhp from ANY remap.

how do you open your bonnet with the milotec grill in place.....?

//hang on - i can't see clearly if that is the oem upper grill or a replacement milotec one

the wheels look great btw
