they seem extremely cheap even comparing to ebay prices on other brands. O idea what they are actually like though.

$119 dollars in the US, so i expect we'll be gang raped and it will be £500

Sounds expensive tbh

Can only echo above, what ever you spend having the engine done you wont ever make back on the sale :(

its hit alot more than that, Lincoln, Grantham, stoke and stoke county, kingsmill, newark, mansfield,

Looks good mate

Ah k, be unrelated i expect then. In fairness could be bad timing, have you heard any more from the garage?

How long ago did you change the rad and cap?

£230 per instance which i heard figures of 30k computers infected = £7 million

aww my twin :) hahha looks good mate, personly i;d be tempted to drop the front a tad more or maybe raise the back a tad

unless it had had the standard turbo swapped out it wont have.

when they hit the NHS they crossed the line as far as im concerned, send MI6 in a put a bullet in their heads, sounds harsh but they risked hundreds, if not thousands of lives today just for money.

yeah well worth it in your case

Yeah, why it tends to be only done when engine is in bits, cost doesn't justify the gains

Put the vid up in YouTube and link it here

Was an Audi Main dealer that got caught as well a while back.

Yeah one of the things i read said gains vary depending on tune level. mines V5 so 98-99, TGV came in 2001 hehe

Not far off at a guess, manifold off to get at which isn't a simple job in itself.

it's been proven that each sticker adds 12.65749bhp,

I cant figure out where they got the hp gain from. all the tgv deletes i find they talk about custom tune (in the US flash maps are the norm), which will always see gains over a standard map or even a flash map. Also seems to be they combine it with egr deletes and other bits and bobs so isn't just a tgv delete. Not saying it wont improve things, but i take what comes out of the US with a pinch of salt most of the time rather than actual fact. Did you find any threads that were before, during and after the tgv was removed?

lol, doubt it, got dales close by so no residential streets. Reason it kicked off with clinic so much was the owner refused to show the video, made up half the story then went straight to the press. Don't get me wrong, shouldn't have happened in the first place, but they guy was looking to stir it up. Apparently he's done it before elsewhere and never took up the offer for his car to be checked over by RCM, so pretty obvious he was never that bothered.

There's def a downturn in scoobs in general. There at the stage where you can pick one up for 1-2k so people think oo cheap performance car and buy one. They then find out come service time its still a 30k car. They can't afford it so scrimp on servicing, which then means it blows up. Then they cant afford to rebuild it so they either break it or sell it too a breaker. Give it a few years and prices are gonna spike like they have with type r's and RA's and you'll find they become rarer so people are more prepared to spend money on keeping them going.

haha, tbh I know its only 4 screws to undo the butterfly, but it typically gets done during rebuild so you never know what affect it actually has.

seems to be things have moved on a bit towards alcatek, but he biggest issue is customer services sucks baboons balls with it :(
