My Lil Red Roc
Hello guys, I have been driving my 1.4 TSI (160hp) Scirocco for almost 2 years and still loving every single angles of it. Now just manage to have some minors modifications done to it and stage 2 tuned. Hopefully more to come in the future!
Cheers!

Ï love it. Car looks great! And that diffuser is wild! Where can i get one of those? Sick!
You should restore the faded black plastic trim on the front bumper. It's too gray in my opinion.

Re: My Lil Red Roc
Thanks mate! Its a custom exhaust system done by my local workshop. Basically I got a decat downpipe, replace the stock resonator with a sport resonator and for the muffler, its a custom catback exhaust by MonsterPro. But I do believe your car will sound similar with a decat downpipe. Probably even better than mine!Zanic L3 wrote:Nice, sounds even better then my 2.0 TSI miltek non resonated catback.Synergy Atomic wrote:Giving a lil bit of update here, gave the Roc a new exhaust setup.

Re: My Lil Red Roc
Thanks! Its a custom made diffuser, so probably you can show the picture to your local bodykit workshop to custom made it too. As for the black plastic trim on the front bumper, I will probably wrap it gloss though or probably just get an R front bumper instead.Bergseten wrote:Ï love it. Car looks great!

Perhaps you can change a catted downpipe instead as the stock downpipe is pancake-shaped and very restrictive. However, make sure you get a tune after that!

Nah, I ordered the wing from my local bodykit shop. Its the Scirocco R Cup Spoiler, they are pretty much everywhere (eBay, AliExpress.. etc), you can get it in carbon fiber or PP material.
