The forums will be offline for maintenance on Friday 15th November at 10pm for up to an hour. Thank you for your patience.
To be honest fellow the car won't run on them cams with the standard induction system and stock ecu, honest people told me that 260 was the limit but I was told by Vince @ Stealth Racing that 268 cams can be done. It did pass emissions after a good blast before the test and idled very lumpy lol but that had to be it's limit and if you do a bit of research on here you will find other examples of 260 and 268 cams being used.
I was going to take my car to TSR but I wanted a company that done the work to the engine before and knew what will, does or can work but with TSR they told me first they did two and then after a few emails said they done 9A lumps not the ABF which they never done before.

Had a phone call off OSE waking me up this morning to let me know the car is ready!
So went to collect it this afternoon, got it home haven't washed it yet as I had other things to do which you will see futher down the post.
First my Polycarb Windows:
And as you can see the F2 spoiler has been removed and replaced with the OEM 16v spoiler, if you haven't noticed here's some more photos of it.
And a cheeky one with the bonnet open
Really like how the car is looking with the standard spoiler fitted makes the car lower and wider!
And as I mentioned in a previous post, I ordered a portable garage so me and the old man (thanks because he's started to read this thread lol) put it up.
The snot's new home!

Thanks fella! The alloys will be refurbed again soon, having them powdercoated white.... the paint is chipping off them
My mate sprayed it for me, any bodyshop will do it or you can spray it yourself with a paint can. Halford will make paint up and there's paint shops about that will supply paint pots or can's etc....

Sounds familiar, mine have been refurbed once and there knackerd again, all have cracks in the powder coat and bits missing here and there
Ah great don't go saying that, I'm hoping the powdercoating will stop the paint chipping off..... done the job on my passat rims
dude, looking sweet as ever.....not that you want me saying anything else about the body work, but, ive modded my lower grill, the one in between the foggies, i had cut the slats out and then smoothed over, so its a nice scoop there..if you know what i mean? i may have a pic
Yep they are, the top is just pushed into the seal and I'm not sure how they fixed at the bottom can find out if you like?
I know what you mean, good idea that... love little details like that but I will leave that one now!
Should have said when I had all the work done 1st time lol. Get a pic up tho would like to see that
