Looks great @Giddy
You having any problems with the atmospheric BOV? Do you have a MAF?
I've been trialling a dual port Turbosmart valve on mine and it's great, only blows to atmosphere when you're giving it some. No MAF on mine so no fault codes.

@Doc Thanks. No problems so far, drives just like before without any side effects. No MAF in 1.4 TSI either. It does not blow on a steady acceleration, but if you push it harder it blows off on every gear change, although I'm still trying to understand the exact behaviour. There is also a spare uprated spring for the BOV, shall I need one.

@james400 Not the cheapest kit, but wasn't too bad with 15% off on black Friday :)

Thanks chaps. It's not a noisy setup, as it still quite close to OEM. Nowhere near as noisy as a cone type filters. Inside the cabin there's no noticeable difference under normal driving, but you can hear a change in the engine tone when pushing harder and also an added blow off sound when changing the gears.

Thanks for taking your time to read through. I've put all the part numbers in the "useful part numbers" thread https://www.caddy2k.com/forum/viewtopic ... 80#p334806

Can't remember exact price, it was a while ago... I think it was around £150 for all of them :roll: :roll: :roll:

Outstanding build! I'm here looking up dodo sound deadening and carpet at the min very hard sourced without looking in the UK ordering is a nightmare at the min. Is 60cm x 583 in a roll or 50 sheets of dodo matt enough to do floor and windows ? Can get it off cosycampers.ie

I think 50 sheets will be ok to start with, but not enough if you covering entire floor. Quite a lot goes on the sides behind factory panels, sliding door and barn doors.
