    Kenslim, where do you live in London since I'm just east of it in Ilford. There are several places where you can have the work done, though TDI in barking is one that comes to mind. Not cheap though? What spec is your car?

    Drop me a line and I'll give you more details if you like.

    Welcome to the site mate.

    You are probably better off asking your question in the "Performance Modifications" section.
    Or read what others have done so far on this site.

    If Barry would make me a mod, I could move this thread...

    What year and colour is it. You might want to fill in the 'The first big VR4 poll' thread which is in VR4 General -> VR4 Chat.
