[lofer]

Nice quote! Do you have the turbo already? When you planning to fit it?

 

[davet175]

I’m sure with work there’s no reason why it can’t be a good setup!

 

[davet175]

we shall see. got a guy i know fitting it all and he will get it in. also been searching on american sites and they all say how easy it was to fit. we shall see and by this time next week will be all boosted up ready to have a play. should be around 350bhp accroding to atp but one strange thing they have had alot of issues with the highflow part of the kit and have said to maybe even not use it.

6 speed lcr. been told they can be a bit of a pig but "nothing good came from anything easy!" quote from mike tyson in 92

Only skimming this thread but am I wrong in thinking that the american left hookers would be slightly more spacious where it counts, rack etc so the turbo might sit flush with no modding?

 

[davet175]

yeah thats possible i phoned the US of A todaya nd the guys said that they shouldnt be an issue with fitting however they did have some issues with the early ones as the casting for the turbo housing was slightly wrong for the cars but we shall see all starts in the morning

 

[The MoffMeister]

belive me whan i say its not as straight forward bolting on as you'd imagine no matter how good your mate is etc

there has been an issue with this so double check

 

[m0rk]

What manifold and turbo are you using?

The Golf fitment, or the TT fitment?

 

[Ninja]

post progress reports please (oh and pics )

 

[davet175]

pics not sure if he will do that but progress report will be on tomoz when i have spoken to him. he knows what he is doing as hes just built up a full short wheelbase quattro from scratch and runs around 400bhp. bloody quick fun thing i have to say, will keep you all posted tomoz.

 

[m0rk]

lol, gotta love your optimism.

regardless of what or who your mate has or is - he will struggle to fit the golf fitment to your car

 

[davet175]

well we shall see and car only got to be ready by end of the week anyhow and he will get it done by then. you lot seem so pessamistic. going to do the trackday on feb as well so can see how it compares to others with mods as well

 

[m0rk]

that's because some of us have tried

don't break anything if you must have it done by the end of the week

 

[The MoffMeister]

as mork says there's been plenty of people trying and mork did one to and that took years lol and also dpj had a load of hassle with his

were pessamistic but i'd say your optimistic lol

 

[davet175]

well only the next few days will tell and most things as always are down to the fitter. awesome gti have fitted loads of these inthe past and had no major issues except the early ones. hopefully will all go well and will be onthe rollers next week or later on this week and can see soem reasonable power

 

[The MoffMeister]

you'd be good for 340 to 360 i'd say
