Re: Should i change to 170

Ive also ordered the 140 then thought mabye i should change i already have the 140 in my golf and pleased with it. Just thought mabye a bit extra power would be nice. What eventually changed my mind was the 4 - 6 week delay it would put on my car. that and that £905 extra for 30bhp is a bit much
