@@MichaelSmith17 ahhh its a nice drop! How they should've come out the factory i think haha how comfortable is the ride though and my other half and daughter will probably have something to say about it lol
@@chelseapayne7156 yeah it's not bad actually as this use to by my everyday drive hence why I didn't go too low. Haha the ride is comfortable (well I think so anyways) . Your other half will appreciate it I'm sure 😅 go H&R though as they a good brand.
I also had a problem with an APR intake kit from awesome, said they placed it on back order two months ago and so got tired of waiting and instead ordered a revo kit which came only a few days later, stock issues seem to be a problem at awesome it seems
It's absolutely ridiculous! I placed my order in the beginning of January and I'm still waiting. The worst thing is, you have to keep calling them to get an update 🤦🏼♂️ that's terrible customer service. I feel your pain. I'm waiting until Friday and if nothing then I'm going Revo too. You enjoying the Revo induction?
Yes bro the wheels look good, not my choice. But it's ur ride u do what makes u happy. I tinted my rear lights at the weekend with Vvivid+ air light smoke tint, because of the shape of the rear lights it was a pain. It came out good, but what a learning curve as never done it before. Just a heads up if ur looking to do it yourself. 👍
Thank you Kap! 🙌🏼😅 Ah really, I thought as much when I looked at the curve of our rear lights, it's going to be a pain but I'll just have to power through 😬 I'll put up a video of me doing it so everyone can see my struggle. Maybe lol
So yes I will go stage 1 once I get my induction kit installed, APR sports cat and cat back exhaust. Before this though I'll be doing the timing belt for sure 💯
Nice wheels. If you go sports cat on these its generally recommended to go to stage two, which can get expensive as you’ll need a new fuel pump, possibly new intercooler. At stage 2 I’d probably want better brakes as well. You might be better off with a good cat back or even just a res delete. BCS do a nice cat back for the Rocco.
Thank you mate! So I've just uploaded a new video about the full milltek exhaust I've just installed. Gone with a race cat with milltek catback non res. I'm going to get the high flowing fuel pump and forge intercooler for a stage 2 +. Will do other little engine mods to get safe numbers without putting the engine under any pressure.
@@yippykayak5842 so some people say 300 but if I'm honestly I think about 275 - 290bhp from r-tech tuning. Don't get me wrong 300 would be awsome but I think I would be dreaming 😬
Michael Smith good luck bud, will be a big difference and lots of fun I’m sure. I have a stage 1 facelift R at the moment which should be doing about 310, I’ve considered going stage 2 but it can barely put the current power down so I think that’s my limit for now. May go for the anti lift kit if I can get over the squeaking noise they make as apparently that improves things
@@yippykayak5842 thank you champ! Aaah wow that's nice power right there, man I bet it feels really nice but like you say it's keeping the power down that's the issue. If only these cars were quattro lol 🤣 my next car will be for sure! For now the mods need to continue on the Rocco 💯
They look better than I thought they would my bru. I know you showed me them before you fitted them and I said I wasn't sure but they do look alright. Each to their own but probably too in your face for my liking. I prefer the more subtle look. Was going to say that the rear lights need tinting. I'd say maybe do LEDs in the headlamps also to give it a more classy look. You'll probably need VAG-COM or OBDEleven to code out the errors though.
Thank you Ooms! 🙏 Yeah it's a out there colour but hey you me I like to be different 😅 I need coilovers too, I see too much wheel gap lol but baby steps. Once the lights are smoked it will look much better 👌🏼 I'll come to you when I need the vag-com 😉
Thank you dude! 🙏 Yes certainly, lockdown is almost done 👌🏼 yeah I really need side skirts and a carbon spoiler. But money does not grow on trees 😅 we will get there bro.
Michael Smith haha well let’s hope so, the scirocco meet in May 🙏🏽 . This is trueee. I’ve hit a bit of wall atm but I think spacers / lowered a little bit n maybe a wrap n I’ll be happy i think 🤔
Great video bud! Literally just sat and watched them all. I currently have a stock 17 plate Scirocco R and watching some of your vids has really inspired me to start looking at doing some mods of my own! Keep up the great work :)
Hey Ben! Ah mate appreciate that, I'm so glad it's helped you out or inspired you in some way 👌🏼🙏 I just could never find any Scirocco videos on UA-cam so thought let me just film my journey with mine lol thanks for watching them dude! Get that Scirocco modified dude 🙌🏼
Looks great, how many mm is it lowered? And springs or coilovers?
Thank you Chelsea 🙏 so they pro sport 30mm lowering springs (first mod I got) 😬 Going to get coilovers though soon as she needs to go lower.

@@MichaelSmith17 yeah makes some good noises, should help with a few extra gains when it comes to remapping too
@@Yuggys awsome, this is good to know 🔥👍🏼
Nice color but i think if the silver should be gloss black will look even better
Yeah true, I just wanted to be different and try something new 😬 took a chance

Good luck bro, with the rear light tint. I'll get the popcorn🍿 ready. 😁👍
@@elkapi67 hahaha 😂 ah man can't wait 😅😅😅 sweating!!!
Michael can I ask you, if ur looking to go stage 1 or not,do u know if your scirocco has had updated timing chain tensioner done on your car?
So yes I will go stage 1 once I get my induction kit installed, APR sports cat and cat back exhaust. Before this though I'll be doing the timing belt for sure 💯

Michael Smith nice mate, what sort of numbers will you be doing at stage 2+?

Keep going mate, what shock and spring your wearing ?
Thank you mate! 🙏 So standard shocks and aftermarket 30mm springs. If you looking at springs, go H&R 35/40 mm springs or coilovers 👌🏼👌🏼
@@MichaelSmith17 thank you mate!!!
Good choice!! Looking sweet 👌👌
Thank you so much! The gamble payed off 😅🙏
Didn’t expect that colour but looks really nice!
Thank you bru! Yeah I was really taking a chance but I'm happy with them 👌🏼🔥
Haha awesome mate its unique am glad u like it
Thank you brother 🫶🏼
yes bro these look great!! still need to meet up, I'm missing side skirts myself and rear splitters.... think im being cheap atm haha

Where about and what date is the scirocco meet 🤔😬🤐
@@athomewithsalvageuk9625 I'll find out for you and confirm. I still need the location ect too

They look great dude, with the car all shined up, even better 😂😉 Enjoying seeing the progress 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Isn't it just fresh ❤️🙌🏼 thank you my bru! Bring on more modifications 🤛🏼
Great job man! Shout out from Namibia South Africa!
Appreciate it!! 🙌🏼 I'm from Durban South Africa originally man, pleased to meet you! 🙏
Wheels look good! For coilovers go to coilovers.co.uk
Thank you Nig! Ah amazing, thank you for sharing as I definitely need coilovers mate.
@@MichaelSmith17 they're really helpful, mine came next day
That's brilliant! Thank you mate!
Dont put a spoiler on. Keep the alloys "alloy", never put a loud exhaust on and stay away from carbon fibre.
Boring
Must be honest. Looks cheap and 18yr old style. Such a waste of a good Scirocco.
Fair enough, each to their own dude 👍🏼
