    To add more specifics on perceived benefits for me, down shifts are easier to rev match as blipping the throttle gains more revs quicker. Engine breaking is enhanced which I enjoy. The engine feels more lively and responsive. Sharper. I don't regret it and would certainly recommend.

    I had PP's UL flywheel and clutch done on fixed cam sigma 125. Genuinely transformed the car. Very responsive throttle and I actually prefer the heavier clutch. I have a 5 speed, but had similar concerns about it being too heavy for around town etc, but after a couple of blats it's normal for me. Others I've driven now feel too weak! Saving pennies for engine work from Stuart...

    Anyone thinking of selling one....? BM please

    I'd second @CharlieC comment there. I got my sigma 125 back from Stuart on Friday, went ultra lightweight flywheel and clutch as a first upgrade. Been out for a couple of hours this weekend, and it does make a large difference to throttle response and urgency of the engine. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend, both from a product and a customer service POV.

    Thanks for the information. Looking for some cheaper second hand ones if possible. The lap strap point is a good one!

    Hello All, Replacing standard inertia belts and wanted to see if anyone is keen to sell ideally two 4 point harnesses please? PM'd pictures would be great! Cheers

    Ha! Supermarket runs have never been so much fun. I seem to have developed a severe case of upgraditis almost instantly into ownership. Made even more dangerous by living a stones throw from Stuart at Premier Power...

    As a third backup... I've also got some fresh off a 2014 S3. Not sure if they have to be SV specific.

    Hi All, I'm looking to go 125 to 140, and believe I'll need a Sigma 140 Ecu, Cams, Injectors and Throttle Body. Anyone already upgraded and looking to offload some unused parts?! Or know where I could find some? I'm happy to collect. Been in at Premier Power and Stuart is doing Ultra lightweight Flywheel and some other bits, so would be great to fit it all in at the same time! Many Thanks!!

    Right. Thanks all. Think these are the ones, for reference. This is the marine grade stainless steel, might be overkill for british roads, but still. https://www.accu.co.uk/en/socket-button-screws/8280-SSB-M3-12-A4

    I've looked up M3 screw and they look similar to the one found in the headlight, yes. Any idea on the exact spec of M3 screw needed would be helpful. Seems to be a few variations... Thanks

    Can't seem to find just the top headlight bolt for the 5 3/4 headlight. Any idea's where I could get one (prefferably 2) from? Cheers

    Thanks for that. Found one before I could make the call!

    Thanks. Sourced one now. Very excited to pick it up on the weekend!

    Dibs on half hood please! PM sent

    Looks like a great car. I'm ideally after an S3 as I'm not particularly long or wide, so the snugness is more appealing to me. But one to watch for sure.

    Thank you

    Good to know, the lightweight flywheel is on my list... Just for reference, I can't afford the upgrades right now, hence having the starter car. I'd either upgrade the car or get another, but I like the idea of having the upgrade as I can find the car I want and keep it for a while. Maybe naive of me.
