Re: HR lowering

Is balancing also required after fitting h&r springs? I'm going to be fitting mine soon. Also, if balancing is required, do people recommend doing it straight after fitment or after its settled?

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?

I went to a meet recently and two of the cars had the res delete. Sounded great. It's only loud when you put the foot down. One had packed some fibreglass into the pipe to reduce the noise but it was still very loud.

Re: Few questions from a DSG amateur.

I've noted (and read one in a post before) that the gear changes up are a lot quicker when you have your foot down as the gearbox readies the higher gear. If you lift off the throttle and switch up its slower as it doesn't know whether you're going up or down next.
