    I have heard about this.. What does it do or how is it used??:)

    AFAIK, this company arrive at your house in a van with a machine in the back. Attach it to the car and run a very fine ''insert whatever that liquid is'' into the engine and it goes through the injectors and basically de-carbonises the engine with the bad stuff heading out the exhaust.

    Supposed to better performance, better economy etc. Cost's circa €120. :)

    Cheers it sounds intresting. I sold a product years ago called Decarboniser but the engine needed to be stripped to use it.

    Golly, have you looked into the Eibach kits available for the GTi?

    Probably the best option if you're looking for a small drop without compromising too much on comfort.

    I've just had a good look there on uk sites.

    do you mean a kit consisting of springs and shocks or just springs?

    At the moment with what ive done to the car and the money i have spent,
    I'll just be able to afford either lowering springs or a jom blueline coilover kit.

    Any advice would be really helpful thanks!!

    Just the spring kit. I have it on the ST and its perfect for daily use and speed bumps etc... But also changes the look of the car just enough in the right way. Lower and more aggressive but not hiding the tops of the tyres under the arches etc...

    I got all the cables for iphone/aux but even though the volume on the phone is at full, I still have to turn it up on the stereo.

    I'm happy enough here in the past with my CDs :D

    Cheers MM,
    I forget to say i will be looking for the smallest drop i can get for that very reason. Like 20mm maybe.

    Anyone else?! :p

    Eibach springs drop 20mm front 25mm back, it's what i will be going for in the summer, gonna do lowering springs RARB powerflex bushes and upgraded shocks (bilstein probably) but no point doing it in the winter so exhaust system rehash comes first after some visual stuff

    I'm not into Dubstep, I actually thought it was something to do with Dublin for a while...
    Anyway, I'm all about Kyary Pamyu Pamyu these days.

    In my garage, all weird music is banned.

    You can choose between Dolly Parton, Garth Brooks, Bryan Adams, U2 or Portishead. :P

    Asian chicks just don't do it for me.

    Don't get me wrong, plenty of Asian chicks are pretty but they look like schoolgirls until they're 40, then just like Fionn MacCool they double their age overnight. ;)
