Hi guys!

what do you think about this :

My link

:dull:

To be brutally honest?

It's a big bag of spank. Adds nothing to the car, other than a magnet for police and pikeys. Expect jokes such as "is that a handle to push your skip mate?" etc.

If your car was a total animal, and you required the downforce for track or rally, and you had the proper WRC wing, then I'd support that.

Just my personal opinion though. Plus I'd prefer a fast and invisible car. The Octy's trick is that it blends into the traffic with it's subtle styling.

DONT BUY FROM E-BAY IF ITS FROM POLAND ! i brought one , of a polish guy of ebay . at first i thought nothing of it and when it came to fit it , the bolt holes didint even line up and it was a inch to short !

in the end we make it fit and did a fantastic job too !

have to agree i dont like that one !!!

the real one wrc = tested in wind tunnel and does the job needed

the original on car = tested in a wind tunnel and match for the car works well

ebay = not tested, doesnt look like the wrc spoiler, falls apart, doesnt fit, cheap crap,

why change???

i would change but only for the real deal ( p.s which i might have 2 very soon ;) )

If you need to ask, then you cannot afford it !!!!

Genuine WRC spoilers are one kidney, one lung and many other body organs.

you can actually get them for around £250 notes if you find someone that has got them.

im hpeing to have a couple just after the new year..

little tip go onto rally forum and find teams running the octavia and buzz them an email and they are very helpful....trust me

Tis mine with just a remap. Twos nice to look at then. I just don't think the WRC wing looks right on a standard car.

Car is still in bits. The big port head is back together with all it's titanium bits fitted. The crank looks like a work of art and the pistons are being machined at the mo. 2.1L here we come. I've reworked the ABD intake manifold to match up with the head and smoothed all the lines/casting inside the manifold so should flow better.

wow the car looked stunning in its commando style love it. have to agree about the spoiler

wow your engine is going to be mad...... i assume your staying around the same power just alot stronger and with more displacement and better flow the lag should be in theory alot less....

how long until you tink you will be finished??

any photo's??

good luck mate sounds awesome ...

i think it makes the whole car better plus it makes a brilliant drinks table for santa pod weekends u can get loads cans of beer on it and put the nibbles underneath in the gap so its perfect

but only thing is if nt fitted and sealed properly the bolts rust and damage the base of the spoiler like mine has

only other problem is u cant see feck all out the rear window
