Split-R is a waste of time tbh, I used to have one

They take so long setting up and I found it near impossible to get it perfect.

I ended up selling mine an going for a Forge 007p, you can just change the spring as you go up in engine remap stages or power :-)

I was told not to get that dump valve due to it not running properly with the car or something about it been tricky to set up :? (some one tell me if im wrong )

the bumper were really hard to find i went to VW bought them £185 for one plus all the fittings but i had to modify it to fit on my GTI none on the grills from VW line up with the holes on that bumper :-S then i have a mate who has a garage all in all cost a fair bit,I'm getting car tomorrow after work :) i just gonna save for the auto fold mirrors which is a optional extra for 9n3 but not in the uk i've been told just japan :-S like these bumpers are cup edition ones every other place in EU and America and round the world just not the UK it is a genuine part go down VW order will take 3 months as i was told got my mate to order it came in week as he buy from VW regularly i would suggest going to a VW warehouse i was luck there huge VW part warehouse colindale north London they part frequently they supply greater London

£185 for just the bumper all the other bits and trim add up to about £400 but i used old fitting items from old GTI bumper to secure it to the car grills and items can add up to £400 including VAT
