Well few updates..... cant remeber if i mentioned i had hids.. well i now have.
my toyo proxies on the front have just his the mark so have ordered up two new ones which should be here tomorrow. 130quid i could have spent else where tbh but oh well!
also my jetex filter should be here tomorrow too
picked up my forge joiner and silicon pipe and vacuum pipes today (nice bit of blue)
and also gave my mate mr 45cb my suspension and 130notes in replacement of his h&r cup suspension, thankyou mate for fitting too! handles so much better now, feels planted and makes me enjoy driving it that little bit faster in bends became such a grandad in this car compared to my old gti as this doesnt handle well, but now feels alot better!
also today i went to longlife to see about getting a exhaust made up, full system it will be, turbo back. so i plan to get a 3'' decat downpipe going into a 2.5 straigh through to a backbox and double pipe exit, nice and standard looking (to look like the miltec system, just wanting a bit of a nice rumble and nothing loud and raspy/noisy/chavvy. hopefully should sound a bit like this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNKTgYSaKSE&feature=channel (dannylad off heres car)
anyway some pics.
how it started tonight
induction pipe 
white battery looking rather crap!!
better looking sprayed battery!
mmmmm pizza
doing the above made me get rather angry.... see vvv
Finally!!!

Don't know based on code but could probabaly find out.
If it's a double lambda you will have to do something with the second one when you get the decat otherwise it will throw up a constant fault on the dash. You can get it mapped out though or i've heard of people spacing it out to avoid it. But not sure how effective that is.
Was going to get a decat for the golf as the flexi pipe is gone but I've got two lambdas
