Nice great stuff, got mine 4 days ago and I have to agree, the volume of the HK has to be high to hear music with windows down. In my GTI I had it at 30% and was already loud.
I'm going for full XPEL Stealth wrap next Monday as PPF seems to be a mandatory thing with cars today. The MT is amazing, never had the chance to test it, but I am so glad I took it. So much involvement and such a rewarding experience. Not a problem in stop and go so far. Also agree on power, I didn't explore the 5-7k area under the graph yet but it seems perfectly balanced and just enough for this car. Had MPSS in the Golf and got Contis in the BMW - they seem less grippy but they might need more break in as I did ca. 500km for now. Love wireless Apple Carplay - in my golf had to connect it all the time through a USB cable. What about the KW V3 compared to stock? I'm contemplating MPS, AST or KW V3 The amount of attention I got in 4 days of owning this car is hilarious |

Regarding volume issues, wondering if ASD has been deleted. When playing radio (mostly satellite; not phone) with ASD deleted and windows up, 30% vol is all I need to get it LOUD inside. Before ASD was removed that number was closer to 50%.. I dont pay much attention to listening with the windows down; to me thats not a great way to listen to music anyway.

Aren’t the M Performance coilovers rebranded KW V3s? That being said, for a combo street/occasional track, V3s are great; for more track time, while still streetable, KW Clubsports w/camber plates (they come with the kit) or equivalent from MCS or AST is the way to go. Figure out your priorities and majority use of the car before pulling the trigger on suspension - lots of good options out there, just need to figure out compromises

It seems like audio from a bluetooth source has less volume than USB. Try that? |

Nice review. I have two scuffs that show black underneath my Alpine White on the front bumper. Yeah, that paint is kinda weak.

Also I'm pretty sure the springs rates are different between the two. And obviously the color and the fact that one is an official M performance part and the other is considered aftermarket. Last edited by AndrewC1989; 06-22-2018 at 07:41 AM.. |
