Thought i post up my DT,and how it got to where i am today....
I bought the first one for 200 bucks with a head gasket gone and it was in a proper state!
It was hanging
Replace head gasket went over the engine wasnt as bad as it looked
Interior was next
Replaced with gti6 interior
Removed wheels these cost me 50 bucks delivered from ebay with 3 good tyres!
New exhaust system fitted 2 1/2 straight through to a 4inch tailpipe
I did lower this car myself and will never be doing one again what a pain in the ass!
Boost gauge fitted
I did mod the gov and ground the lda down.....but the body work was too bad so i bought another black 3 dr and made a good one out of the two
This is the second one
Now it was time for the fmic, this was the first attempt
Shortly after it was fitted (3 days) turbo went pop.....
Out came the engine
Full rebuild.....and t25 turbo
Engine back in and re did the intercooler pipework
Had to remove washer bottle replaced it with scooby i/c spray bottle just sits behind head light.
It has 11mm pump on it.....but im tailing off boost about 4200 using a mbc and im going to shim up the gov more......
Thats it so far...
