  1. I wouldn't recommend it but I used to run 195/45R14s on my G40 so don't ask what I would put on them. :) On a serious note I'd look at 235/40s on an 18x8.5.

    I run a Invidia Gemini (but with a sports cat and unequal length manifold also with sports cat) and it's quite an interesting thing, if you keep the revs down it's relatively quiet but put your foot down or on a cold start and it makes a lot of noise. I also find it tends to drone a bit at ~70 in 6th when you have a slight incline so not great for long motorway trips. The problem is you don't know what you are getting until you run it for a little while. I never used to do many motorway miles so the setup was great for the 30 mile each way B road commute I was doing at the time.
  3. I've almost exclusively run Momentum99 since day one (a depressing 7 years ago) with occasional VPower or BP 98 when I need to fill up not on my normal commute. I've never noticed much difference between Shell and Tesco in terms of performance on MPG but had to put some Texaco 98 in recently after almost running out on a business trip to the back end of nowhere and found I was down to low 30s on the motorway (even after the HKS supercharger was fitted a few years back I normally manage 39-42 on the motorway) .
  4. Just coming up to 4 years and an MOT, hopefully the battery will hold out until after that then I wont worry for another 12 months. At least on my Phaeton I can turn the system off with VAGCom and removing the fuse.
  5. My light comes on quite often in cooler weather, the pressures are all fine, I think it is the battery in one or more of the sensors is almost dead and they only wake up when they get warm enough, shame as there is plenty of tread left and the sensors are not cheap to replace.
  6. I know this is an old topic now but did you sell these?
