That isn't a lot cheaper than Genuine.

It reminds me a Top Gear road trip in Alabama: 😂

So just testing out possibilities more than being a finished product, I need to brush up on my photoshop skills and figure out how to do graphics 

 

 

Did u actually change the graphics here?

The hardest part is making the graphics, that requires actual talent!

Inspired by Roscio's stage 3 efforts, today I have had fitted a 3inch centre exhaust section, in preparation for my stage 2 upgrade.

The centre res has been replaced with this https://vibrantperformance.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=1527_1032_1054&products_id=292&osCsid=7314c85bb8343fbbdc280f8761ae5ae4

All in all the new sound isn't intrusive as I thought it might be, so I am happy indeed.

250 quid for the centre section pipework fitted, and 64 quid for the resonator itself. A local powerflow shop did the job.

[Roscio]

Good job @Bigeater, you will need it for when you go further with your project. Do you have any pics of the new resonator installed?
The sound will change even more once you'll fit a new downpipe...

Any ideas if it's possible to get rid of Octavia picture in instrument cluster screen, when using Adaptive Cruise control or viewing "Assistance" page on MFD?

I'd love to change the ACC image but it doesn't seem to be in the MIB 😞 Which is the assistance page?

So today I got a good wash done. Lowering springs are well bedded in and im happy with how it sits on the 20" alloys 😎

20" are sitting so nicely within the Superb's arches, not a clue of being an aftermarket size   I sometimes regret not going 20" with my Ispiris but they're glossy black so maybe it wouldn't matter too much, just a black tire following a black alloy after all   Looks great!

Thanks mate! Sits very well, no spacers needed. Still kinda oem too, wheels are off a vw tiguan 🤓

Maybe you meant to write "in preparation for my stage 3 upgrade" ?   Just curious about this as the centre res is not a bottleneck at least until 420-430bhp of mild hybrids, which are above a 380-400bhp stage 2 anyway. Roscio's big turbo is a different story of-course.

I'd love some comparison data (times more than bhp actually) for a stage 1 > stage 2 switch...   Not that there are any stage 2 tunes available for my 272 yet though

Yep, I noticed! I know these wheels 

Some more questions upon further observations, lol:

Is that the Maxton front splitter and side skirts? If so, how much more does it bring the car closer to the ground? (the splitter) been contemplating about this for some time but need to either have a precise value or see one in person (unlikely where I am)

Cheers
