Oh most definitely, it's criminal what they do to lock the car down. But yeah overall pretty happy.

Re: Stage 1 Map figures
Extremely!! I got the gearbox mapped along with the ECU so everything feels so much better. Honestly can't believe how much this car is hindered coming out of the factory the way it is stock and now compared to what a simple remap does to it, night and day difference. I also got a very subtle crackl...

Vortex Spoiler source
Hey guys, Does anyone have a link or know someone who sells the Vortex Spoiler for the facelift Scirocco that doesn't have the boot clipping issue. Also looking for the small vortex cup version, I've seen a few online that stick far too wide which I'm not a fan of. Struggling to find a suitable one ...

Re: Intercooler needed for Stage 2?
That's some great insight and information. I'm not chasing figures so I think I'll take your advice and just stick with a stage 1, I'll probably get a lil extra since it's got a high flow DP installed with an aftermarket induction kit already there so yeah, well see how it goes since I also want to ...

Intercooler needed for Stage 2?
Hey guys, I'm eyeing up getting my Scirocco mapped and thinking of skipping stage 1 and going directly to stage 2 since I have an induction kit + DP installed already. Is it absolutely mandatory to have an intercooler installed to get a stage 2 done?, has anyone done this and what's their experience...

Re: HELP - Snapped coilpack eyelet cable
So I've completely replaced the broken cable, reset the battery again waited 45 minutes and then turned the ignition on but all those lights still initially show up. Also I'm not getting anymore faults showing up on my reader. Can I just check with some other scirocco owners if this is normal with a...

Disconnected the battery and waited 30 minutes then reconnected it but no Bueno. I did have to recalibrate the steering + drive it a lil bit but that was fine. https://imgur.com/a/7wmjK1k The EPC/Check engine light still came on so back to the drawing board. This wasn't an issue prior to installing ...

Re: HELP - Snapped coilpack eyelet cable
Cheers for the advice guys.
The EPC/Check engine light comes on briefly when you first turn the keys then disappears once the engine is on so I will give the battery a reset and see if that was the fault.

Re: HELP - Snapped coilpack eyelet cable
Yeah I'm siding with caution here and ordered an obd scanner which should arrive tomorrow.
Will take a look at the error codes first and see what they say.
For now the car is running fine but I'm not happy with leaving the EPC/check engine lights there.

Re: HELP - Snapped coilpack eyelet cable
Sorry not sure why Imgur cropped that photo. It's missing the broken cable, the one you see is an untouched one. This is the broken one. https://ibb.co/FBTKvpZ And unfortunately yes this is the source of the fault since this wasn't an issue prior to changing the cold air intake and snapping this wire.

Re: HELP - Snapped coilpack eyelet cable
Yeah the cable is completely fucked and throwing up an EPC/Check Engine error even after mending it with a crimp. I could drop the cash and buy this which looks to fix all of the eyelet cables but it's a steep buy in. - https://www.awtuning.co.uk/products/ea888-3-coil-pack-ground-harness-kit?variant...

Re: HELP - Snapped coilpack eyelet cable
Thank you, very good idea.
I checked and there is a good bit of give on the cable so I think that might work.

Hi guys, I was fitting my new induction kit and the moment I put torque on the 10mm nut to get off the eyelet grounding cable it just snapped like it was made of nothing.

Cheers for the response mate. I eventually found out the info I was after and found a compatible induction kit here. Had to look at a VW Jetta/GLI which runs the same layout. https://performancebyie.co.uk/products/ie-cold-air-intake-jetta-gli-20t-gen3?gclid=Cj0KCQiA5fetBhC9ARIsAP1UMgGyWNDJLJM2-kZeGE...

If you don't mind me asking even though they are 2 different cars, did you buy their predator exhaust system with a res + silencer delete or was it just a normal cat back etc... Just curious so I know what to expect with a res + silencer delete if it might be too much. Also, I wanted to get a downpi...
