Finally got privilege. Here are some pics guys!

Engine side
Old look with the C.A.I


New with the dynamic air box


Dyno of the car after the remap


I've got a more recent dyno, but Ican't find it. What I can say is the car was 60,000 miles on the odometer, and still pushing the same!

A/V stuff
my headunit


the rest of the audio


Optima Yellow Top battery for enough energy

This is the future part I need to mount

The butterfly with the intake manifold and injectors



I have no pics of it, but I also got the Polo 9n, 9n3 GTi side skirt. I need to get the spray and mounted then.

Here's videos of some meeting I do with my team in France. Our team is called team Seat IDF. When I was working in Paris, I used to do a lot meet with them. I still do meet with them, but less as I'm further away (couple hours driving)

Meeting in March 2009 in Paris suburb

the lack of light in the trunk and glove box is a b*tch
how did you fit the led in the glove box?

with a T10 W5W led like this one
http://www.bluecars.net/product_info.php?cPath=30_80_121&products_id=437

LED are on one side and light up the glove box only.

I also use some thinging to avoid static power in the cable (it make the LED to still bright very little when off!

With this in the glove box and trunk, it's pure light!

For the dash, a friend help me, he did a lot dash like it, in blue and in white as well! It takes him an hour to do it, taking out and putting back the speedo included

I dropped my Polo GTi side skirt to my mechanic, he do paint as well. I should got it in a week.

I went to a Seat meet in Paris see some friends as well. I forgot my camera so no pics unfortunatly. That was good.

When I get back to Le Mans, I pass an Audi A3, rolling with a good speed I pass him, and I stay at 160 km/h for about 90 kilometers, with the A3 following , but didn't try to pass. That was fun driving fast with someone. When I took my exit, guy put his warning light as good by and thanks! That was good too!

been a while since I posted here! Iwas really busy around! Vacations in october with my girl coming from L.A. (she is american), and then a lot of work! I forgot to say I was in Bitburg (It was nice, but I'm mad to the organiser for a couple things, and I ill not go this year!)

Anyway! Side skirt as been ditch! To many mods to mount, and the mounting was not the same under the chassis! I have no time to do mods actually! It fit or not! So I sold them!

Here's what I got :



I got all the parts to mount the intake! I need on joint for the EGR, as it was not the right one!
So next saturday (in a week), I'll see the guy that will do the remap (he will take the actual map), on monday, car got to the mechanics for oil change, full check, bearing change (front left wheels bearing is out and makes noise), and mounting of the intake!
Then a few day later, I'm gonna see the remap guy to work on the map! It will be a lot of money spending ouch!

I'll keep you update with the mounting!
