Are you going to have the buttons wired up?

Also how do you plan on getting the airbag system to work as the wheel is 2 stage whereas your TT is single stage?

Awesome motor!

Im getting optional blanks fitted to cover the controls.
There is a fix out there to allow the air bag to be converted.

Ive been contemplating for a while if my blue hadex is going to be giving me rear push when i need it. Ive been in contact with HPA about there competition controller and after mulling over the choice for a while, ive decided to take the plunge and invest in this little baby..

I should receive it next week for fitment.

Saw the car yesterday, I have to say Im not a fan of the wrap or the front bumper, to me they just didn't look right. I preferred it before.

Sorry smile

The wrap will look better next week once it has settled properly on the car as the wrap was only finished 2 days before the show. Wing mirrors and rear spoiler need rework.. But that's not a biggie.
Santa Pod should be a good time to show the car off with its new rims and steering wheel.

The HPA competition controller is fitted and i must say..im quite pleased with what im feeling at the mo.
There is deffo a feeling of rw push when on the twisties but not any noticeable difference when pushing on the straights.

Looks and I imagine goes very well. Just needs the wheels to be an inch bigger imo.

Next time you see pics of the TT she will have 18" Schmidts on, which are the largest size they make and new rubber for a little stretch..

I spotted this S3 in the classifieds. Is it anything like your spec?
