Unlike my b7 the b8 seems to be pulling stronger now I have a few miles on the clock.
Only 25k but it's going great, had a run with an rs5 the other day, he pulled me over to ask what I had done as he couldn't
Keep up!! Any one else finding there's is getting better with age?

Problem with trading in wives is you lose half of your value on the trade.

"Pulling stronger with age" are we talking about a 12yr old school boy!? All you NA lads are the same, a tiny change in air pressure and you're claiming 50 horses lost or found. FI FTW.

lol @ Bam!

Well I changed my air filters over on Tuesday (yes, the hottest day of the year I believe) and the car felt noticeably better. The old ITG units were removed and cleaned a few weeks back, but they were battered, so I swapped for new. I'm at 48k now, the fact that the car is stable, pulls well when wanted and sounds awesome is holding me from changing it - again!

I might spoil her on some nice little goodies soon...... :sekret:
