Hi everyone, first of all, apologies for this being in the events section, I just figured it would be the quickest possible way to get responses from the people who know what I'm looking for.
I'm looking to gain some extra performance out of my TT Manual. I'm pretty sure that the first stop should be the FMIC / Exhaust combo, but my big question is who I can trust to do quality work on my car while feeling safe in the knowledge that they know exactly what they're doing.
Unfortunately I'm not the most mechanically minded person out there, I just know what I like. So any advice on what direction I should be taking this would be greatly appreciated. I'm not looking to go as far as doing engine conversions, but I'm feeling the need for a bit of extra spark.
All opinions and advice are valued, and If I need to move this topic, just let me know and I'll get onto it straight away

Mat, most exhaust places will be fine for everything from the dump pipe back. Intercooler fitting could possibly be done yourself if you get a mechanically minded friend over, with a kit it's a case of follow the diagrams I would say.

Mat, the best thing for you to get the most out of your Manual soarer is to rip those twins off and slap on a big single... check out my single kit I have for sale, I will cut you a good deal and install it for free

You could also talk to Roy at Kensei Garage 0448271540 for an exhaust, he does mandrel bends and can do from the cat back. Have seen and heard his work and it's pretty good. Same place Hollywood Joe works from sometimes.

Hey Mat Joes number is 0408935700. Hes excellent. Kept his garage open for an extra 80 minutes after hours to service my car as its a fair distance to travel. Highly recommended.

Thanks for all the advice hey, I'll give Joe a call soon, as my car is about due for a service, so i can chew over what I'd like to do with it when i meet him.
