The valves were checked on its last service at 70k and were clean, its only done 2k since then.
Milltek non-res will be ordered at some point this month and I put a revolution induction kit on when I was home last.
Is there any advantage over proper decats as opposed to gutting the originals or is it just what posh people do?

Gut the pre-cats, leave the main cats. It'll need a remap after gutting the pre-cats though.
The revolution intake is nice looking and sounding, but costs power (same as the Gruppe M) which is why I've not gone for one - have you put in a cold air feed and done the aux rad delete at the same time? That can help.

Yeah - the rad delete is a bit of a mission. £200 for AmD in Essex to do it, and I would have been tempted but it was in for £1000 of work already at the time and I just thought fuck it lol. I'm still at 441ps without it so... There's probably not £200 of value in it for me now tbh.

That was my thinking when I saw what MRC charge, $200+ for a cold air feed

Few bits done. Lots actually.
£3.5k of servicing bits and bobs in the last month or so.
Been to nurburgring.
Have it a polish. It's shiny now.
Went to see an rs6 yesterday but couldn't agree on price so pulled out of it. Car was mega so only time now until I get one.

As much as I hate you for selling the 106, this thing does look the nuts buddy - especially on the Karussell in the first pic 
Would love to be at Trax this year to see it/you but plate change month is kicking off at work so thinking of the dollar and getting my head down with that 
Anywho, you missing the old girl yet?

lol - nope, not missing the 106 one bit. Wait till I'm in an RS6 and it'll make the 106 look slow too... Simple as!
Filters, exhaust, and a remap on an RS6 gives 720bhp and 1000nm of torque, with a 3.9 second 0-60 and 205mph top speed. Sorry? What 106?

Christ almighty that is impressive buddy - I know of an RS6 with 740bhp IIRC and that's hitting 205 on the Autobahns 5 up... I've been told it literally has the brakes off a Le Mans racer haha.

Isn't the rs4 a 4.2 v8 n/a and the rs6 a 5.0 v10 twin turbo?

They're geared for 202mph or something, but only the supercharged boys can get there. And I don't want to spend that kind of money

Yeah that's it.
Stage 2 MRC mods (like my car) take the RS4 to about 440bhp. Stage 2 on the RS6 takes them to about 720bhp which is where i want to be at really.

Did you feel the cold air feed is worthwhile with the Revolution intake?
Are you cats gutted?
