Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Loud exhaust

EBay have lots.
Don't worry too much about having to drill holes, a lot of exhausts come with these pre drilled anyway for bungs and they're hardly noticeable.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Loud exhaust

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Alternator lifespans...

it does depend somewhat on demand.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Brake caliper refurb

EDIT! the below only counts if you have already upgraded to rev2+ brakes. if you have rev1 then disregard the below. i honestly would not bother with that.
