Hi all,

Just wanted to say hi, just bought myself an 02 octavia vrs.

What are the best sensible mods to do?? i've been doing a bit of research on this site and have found some very interesting threads.

any obvious tips and tricks would be handy that i might have missed!!

top site, keep up the good work!!

hi and welcome. Have a look on the Octavia mk 1 section for some suggestions. Money is the only limit to what you can do as far as mods go! The obvious one is a remap, which can set you back anything from £100-£600 depending on what you want. That should see you good for a few more horses under the bonnet! But you should consider sorting the handling out before putting more power to the wheels IMO.

what would you suggest with regards to handling mods? i've been searching through the section you suggested but theres that many posts its hard to find which are the most "sensible" mods!! just throw me a few ideas and i'll then search for them.

cheers

Welcome.

For handling mods do a search in the Octy Mk1 forums for "ARB", "Coilovers", "Strut brace", also worth getting a dogbone mount for the engine, upgrading the brakes and getting some decent tyres.
