Exhaust looks sick!! Sound good?

@gman cheers bud having had loud exhausts in my younger days and listening to the drone of them when you're flat out on a long journey I thought I would keep it quiet and did ask for a small silencer to be fitted but nothing to restrict the flow but I think they forgot as I've had a quick look underneath and can't see one but to my surprise it's not that noisy sitting in the drivers seat I can only hear the engine so it's good news to me but the jury is still out on what it sounds like as I drive past maybe a blast down the motorway on my way to Southport will tell

New addition to the van bonnet insulation and a metal sump guard it's had a dry fit and now I know it fits nicely will get it sprayed up

Looks decent that guard!! Does it poke out much from van? Be ideal for lowered a little and protection i was thinking

@gmancan1 it sits within the plastic wheel arches slots into the bumper and is bolted on to subframe and a couple of brackets supplied I suppose it probably sits about an inch lower than the sump but better catching that than putting a hole in the sump which was the reason I bought it

New suspension upgrades changing from the stock 50mm strut to the new 55mm strut and who knows what else to get it back on road bigger discs and caliper are calling

Upgrading front suspension from the 50mm strut to 55mm strut so had to buy new hubs and bearings golf gti front strut to suit my 60mm eibach springs also bought new top mounts and mk5 gti caliper carrier

All stripped down will give everything a good clean and assemble new parts ready to be fitted

I've been eyeing up one of those metal undertrays, are they any noisier than a plastic one?

No I don't think so the only problem i found was the one I bought i ended up having to pay customs tax

Finally got round to posting photos of recent upgrades new suspension with the 55mm strut and ended up going for 312mm discs with tiguan calipers and pads also managed to spray up the sump guard in an inconspicuous orange

Disks and sump guard looks the bollox mate!

@gazza cheers mate it took a while to get it right as I thought the gti caliper i bought would fit the new 312mm discs and for the time being use existing caliper in the end I stripped down the brakes on my wife's tiguan to see what would fit luckily everything fitted and bought the same parts if I'd have done that in the 1st place I could have fitted the 330mm discs

Awesome mate

Thanks jase
